The analytical performance of the Dimension XL clinical chemical system was evaluated. The XL is the latest addition to the Dimension family of instruments; it is a random access analyser with a throughput up to 740 tests/hour. Regression analysis of method comparison studies with Dimension AR yielded slopes of 0.93 to 1.03 and correlation coefficients >/=0.96 for 28 assays. Excellent precision performance was also observed. New instrument features of the XL are discussed.

Objective: Investigate whether routinely collected electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs) add prognostic value to clinical and tumour characteristics for adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving immunotherapy.
Methods And Analysis: We retrospectively analysed data from adults with advanced NSCLC commencing immunotherapy between April 2019 and June 2022. Prognostic factors were ePROMs on quality of life (EuroQoL five-dimension five-level (EQ-5D-5L); EuroQoL Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-VAS)) and symptoms (patient-reported version of the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.

Postural stability measures as diagnostic tools for chronic ankle instability: a comprehensive assessment.
BMC Sports Sci Med Rehabil
January 2025
Department of Physiotherapy, School of Rehabilitation, Tehran University of Medical Science, Enghelab St, Pich-e-Shemiran, Tehran, Iran.
Background: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is characterized by recurrent sprains and persistent symptoms, which impair postural control. This study evaluates the diagnostic utility of various linear and nonlinear postural stability measures in distinguishing individuals with CAI from healthy controls.
Methods: Postural stability was assessed in 24 participants (12 with CAI and 12 healthy controls) using a force platform under four conditions: hard surface with eyes open, hard surface with eyes closed, soft surface with eyes open, and soft surface with eyes closed.
