The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A mouse model of exogenous glucocorticoid (GC) treatment was used to determine (1) if corticosterone induced the same metabolic dysregulation as cortisol, and (2) whether these differences were mediated by the corticosterone‐specific transmembrane exporter Abcc1.

Method Comparison of Dried Blood Spot and Plasma Apolipoprotein B Measurement on a Semi‐Automated Analyser: Toward Accessible Lipid Profiling in Resource‐Limited Settings

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) is a key marker of atherogenic lipoprotein burden, but conventional plasma‐based testing requires venous sampling and centralized laboratory infrastructure. Dried blood spot (DBS) sampling offers a minimally invasive alternative suitable for decentralized settings.

Testosterone therapy-induced erythrocytosis: can phlebotomy be justified?

Endocrine Connections
Erythrocytosis, or elevated hematocrit, is a common side effect of testosterone therapy (TTh) in male hypogonadism. Testosterone stimulates erythropoiesis through an initial rise in erythropoietin (EPO), the establishment of a new EPO/hemoglobin ‘set ...

Nurses’ knowledge on phlebotomy in tertiary hospitals in China: a cross-sectional multicentric survey

Biochemia Medica, 2017
Introduction In China, phlebotomy practice is mostly executed by nurses instead of phlebotomists. Our hypothesis was that these nurses may lack of knowledge on phlebotomy, especially factors influencing quality of blood samples. This study aims to assess

Expanding Access to Genome Sequencing: Higher Diagnostic Yield in Self‐Referred Participants From the CincyKidsSeq Study and Implications for Hybrid Models of Genetic Service Delivery

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 717-724, April 2026.
Genome sequencing helped find answers for 1 in 5 children with rare conditions in an outpatient study looking at hybrid genetic care delivery. Families who chose testing themselves had the highest diagnostic yield, showing that self‐referral may be a helpful way to improve access to genetic care.
