Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, Ahead of Print. ObjectivesWe evaluated the applicability of a machine learning–based low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) estimation method and the influence of the characteristics of the training datasets.Method…
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, Ahead of Print. BackgroundRelationships between the subclasses of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease have been studied, and using vario…
Abstract Background The error-proneness in the preanalytical and postanalytical stages is higher than that in the analytical stage of the total testing process. However, preanalytical and postanalytical quality management has not received enough attention in medical laboratory education and tests in clinical biochemistry courses. Methods/approach Clinical biochemistry teaching program aim to improve students’ awareness and … Read more
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry, Ahead of Print. BackgroundLaboratories should be aware of the stability of the analytes they are testing in order to avoid incorrect reporting and patient management. Stability studies are difficult to interpret and rep…
