Lipid Interference Flagging and Haemoglobin Correction in Lipemic Samples With a Hematology Analyzer
A flagging method was developed based on the changes of routine blood parameters and blood cell scattergram. It highlights the clinical value of the “Lipid Particles?” flag in effectively identifying lipid interference. This study supports the use of HGB‐O measured by ERP channel as a robust tool for improving diagnostic accuracy in lipid interference ...

Evaluation of liver stiffness measurement–based scores in liver transplantation recipients
Abstract Combining bioclinical parameters with liver stiffness measurement (LSM) has improved the diagnostic performance of vibration‐controlled transient elastography (VCTE) for detection of advanced fibrosis in patients with chronic liver disease. However, this approach has not yet been tested in liver transplantation (LT) recipients.
