To evaluate the clinical significance of PLT, MPV, and PDW in monitoring malaria treatment efficacy and predicting disease progression. A total of 31 patients with imported malaria were selected as the observation group, while 31 non-malaria patients with fever were selected as controls. The observation group was subdivided into a complication group and a non-complication group according to the occurrence of complications during treatment.

Multiple myeloma (MM) denotes a cancerous growth characterized by abnormal proliferation of plasma cells. Growing evidence suggests that the complexity in addressing MM lies in the presence of minimal residual disease (MRD) within the body. MRD assessment is becoming increasingly important for risk assessment in patients with MM.

Objective: This paper explores the effect of blood sample storage temperature and time on the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by using the Weiss method.

Methods: Whole blood samples were collected from 80 patients and diluted 1:9 with sodium citrate solution. Each sample was split into two tubes.

Objective: This study establish and evaluate an internal quality control system for erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by a "relay" mode based on samples from relevant patients.

Methods: The method for establishing a new internal quality control system for ESR by a "relay" mode based on patient's samples was executed from February 2021 to July 2021. In this paper, a total of 219 outpatients were recruited for ESR determination, and their blood samples were stored at 4 °C or room temperature for 24 h.

Background: This study explored the application effect of information technology in optimizing the patient identification process.

Methods: The method for optimizing the identification process involved in drawing blood among outpatients using information technology was executed from July 2020. In this paper, 959 patients who had blood drawn from January to June 2020 were included as the pre-optimization group, and 1011 patients who had blood drawn from July to December 2019 were included as the post-optimization group.

Objective: This study determined the reference interval of pepsinogen (PG) of healthy people in the local region to provide a basis for early screening of gastric cancer.

Methods: Among the healthy people who underwent a physical examination in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2020, 2568 subjects were selected based on the relevant screening criteria. Their serum PG I and II levels and PG I:PG II ratio were determined by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CIMA), and the results were statistically analyzed.

Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the value of serum amyloid A protein (SAA) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) testing in the diagnosis and treatment of children with influenza A.

Methods: Specimens were collected from 85 children with influenza A, 85 children with a bacterial infection, and 86 healthy children. The levels of SAA and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured, and routine blood tests were performed.

Objective: This study explores the significance of serum amyloid A (SAA), C-reactive protein (CRP), and white blood cell (WBC) in the diagnosis and treatment of diarrhea in infants.

Methods: Specimens were collected from 126 children with diarrhea and 66 healthy children undergoing health examination. According to the results of stool culture and rotavirus (RV) antigen, these children were divided into three groups: rotavirus group (70 cases), bacterial infection (56 cases), and control groups (66 cases).

Objective: To explore the application effect of lean management in improving the quality of outpatient blood collection services.

Methods: For this study, a total of 146,907 patients whose blood was sampled by outpatient services between April 2020 and September 2020 were selected. We analyzed the influence of various factors on the waiting time and satisfaction levels of the patients for blood collection and eliminated confounders based on the results of the analysis.

Objective: The present study aimed to explore the clinical value of serum amyloid A (SAA) in the diagnosis, treatment, and assessment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS).

Methods: Seventy-eight patients with AS were enrolled as the case group, while the control group consisted of 80 healthy individuals enrolled during the same time period. According to the criteria of the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), patients in the case group were divided into those in the remission phase (36 patients) and those in the active phase (42 patients).

Objective: The present study aims to evaluate the comparability of the results of two methodologies for detecting human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) to assess whether the immunofluorescence method for detecting HCG is adequate for clinical applications.

Methods: Referring to the protocol requirements of the American Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) EP9-A2 (methodological matching and bias assessment with patient samples), we collected 40 fresh serum specimens from our outpatients and inpatients, including 20 specimens with abnormal HCG concentrations (eight samples with different concentration ranges were selected daily and HCG was measured simultaneously with the two testing systems for five consecutive days). The assays were performed on a Dxl 800 fully automated immunoassay analyzer from Beckman Coulter Inc.
