ABSTRACT Introduction Hematological disorders, critical for diagnosis, and monitoring, rely on accurate complete blood count results from automated analyzers, the reliability of which depends on robust quality control (QC). However, the ability of commutability of commercial hematology QC materials (HQCM) to behave like patient samples across different

Testing for Non‐Severe Heritable Platelet Function Disorders
ABSTRACT Heritable platelet function disorders (HPFD) are a diverse group of bleeding disorders characterised by a primary qualitative defect in platelet function rather than platelet number. HPFD may be broadly categorised according to the severity of bleeding, with Glanzmann thrombasthenia and Bernard Soulier syndrome classically considered severe ...

ABSTRACT Enhancing nutritional quality of oilseed rape requires deeper insight into the genetic control of seed quality traits. This study analysed the effect of varying soil phosphorus (P) levels on seed quality traits in the hybrid cultivar Architect. NIRS and laboratory methods were used to quantify total seed P and phytic acid (IP6) content.

We developed sensitive real‐time PCR assays for West Nile virus and Usutu virus to screen bird and human samples in Finland. Although no positive samples were detected, active migratory flyways and recent cases in neighbouring countries highlight the risk of future introduction and the need for continued surveillance.

ABSTRACT Background In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) initiated the global RSV surveillance programme, which aimed to strengthen laboratory diagnostic capacity and evaluate molecular detection test performance. External quality assessments (EQAs) are conducted regularly as part of this programme to ensure ongoing laboratory proficiency.

A gradual and sustainable approach to diagnosing sleep and circadian disturbances in dementia
Abstract Evidence linking sleep and circadian disruptions to the course of dementias, particularly Alzheimer's disease, has expanded. Such alterations are detectable from preclinical stages and parallel the disease progression. Assessing and managing sleep and circadian disturbances in patients with dementia remains challenging.
