Verification of False Reactivity in HIV Rapid Diagnostic Tests and Its Translation Into the Three Tests Algorithm in Cameroon

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Verification study enabled the detection of HIV false reactivity ranging from 0‐4% across rapid diagnostic tests. A reliable three‐tests algorithm ranked First Response HIV 1‐2‐0 Card, First Response HIV1+2/Syphilis Combo or STANDARD Q as suitable test 1 to mitigate false positive events. As countries move toward HIV elimination, implementing the three‐

Development and External Validation of Logistic Regression Models Integrating Conventional Complete Blood Count and Cell Population Data for Predicting RT‐PCR–Confirmed Dengue

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We developed logistic regression models integrating routine complete blood count (CBC) parameters and analyzer‐derived cell population data (CPD) to predict RT‐PCR–confirmed dengue infection and evaluated their performance across internal and external settings.

Examining the Directional Effects of Insomnia, Anxiety, and Depression Symptoms: Results From a Longitudinal Study Conducted During the COVID‐19 Pandemic

Journal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives While some research suggests that increases in anxiety symptoms drive changes in insomnia and depression symptoms, other studies support that these relations may be bidirectional. The present study therefore aimed to further examine how anxiety, insomnia and depression symptoms predict changes in these symptoms over time.
