Noise in the immunohematological investigations can be described as a false reactivity of red blood cells (RBCs) in serologic testing that is not related to the interaction of RBC antigens and antibodies that the test system is intended to detect.

Although these antibodies are predominantly clinically insignificant, proper laboratory work-up is indicated to avoid misidentification of a clinically significant antibody as a noise.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explored the acceptability and feasibility of telemedicine-assisted buprenorphine induction (TABI) for treating opioid use disorder in India.
  • Among the 60 patients enrolled, a high retention rate of 88.3% during the TABI program and 83.3% at the 3-month follow-up was observed.
  • Patient satisfaction was moderate, with 58.3% satisfied, but only 25% would recommend TABI, indicating the need for additional research to enhance its effectiveness and wider implementation.
