Epidemiology of Pertussis and the Screening Value of WBC and Lymphocyte Percentage.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the prevalence of pertussis, a contagious respiratory disease, and evaluates the usefulness of white blood count (WBC) and lymphocyte percentages in diagnosing it.
- A retrospective analysis of data from the last decade revealed fluctuating incidence rates, particularly in China and Zhejiang Province, with recent increases noted, especially in adolescents and adults.
- The findings suggest that while WBC and lymphocyte percentages can aid in pertussis diagnosis, their diagnostic effectiveness is limited, indicating a need for improved prevention strategies.
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.

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.
