Writing population analysis reports that fulfilling the specifications of submission readiness is a time-consuming process and prone to human error. Thus, there is a need to streamline the creation of these reports through elements of standardization and automation. LaTeX is considered a suitable program package capable of creating long, modular, structured documents, and, because of its typographic quality, includes formula typesetting. The presented automation scripts together with easily adjustable LaTeX templates are designed to enable the reader to understand and reproduce a typical workflow from analysis to reporting. The focus of this tutorial is to use an example of a population pharmacokinetic analysis to show how to work with the proposed automated structures allowing even a reader new to the concept of LaTeX to automatize the reporting workflow and customize the templates for their specific needs.

Background: Effective diagnostic capacity is crucial for clinical decision-making, with up to 70% of decisions in high-resource settings based on laboratory test results. However, in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) access to diagnostic services is often limited due to the absence of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS). LIMS streamline laboratory operations by automating sample handling, analysis, and reporting, leading to improved quality and faster results.

Background And Objective: Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is a serious diabetes complication that can cause blindness if not diagnosed in its early stages. Manual diagnosis by ophthalmologists is labor-intensive and time-consuming, particularly in overburdened healthcare systems. This highlights the need for automated, accurate, and personalized machine learning approaches for early DR detection and treatment.

Purpose: In this study, we investigated the performance of deep learning (DL) models to differentiate between normal and glaucomatous visual fields (VFs) and classify glaucoma from early to the advanced stage to observe if the DL model can stage glaucoma as Mills criteria using only the pattern deviation (PD) plots. The DL model results were compared with a machine learning (ML) classifier trained on conventional VF parameters.
Methods: A total of 265 PD plots and 265 numerical datasets of Humphrey 24-2 VF images were collected from 119 normal and 146 glaucomatous eyes to train the DL models to classify the images into four groups: normal, early glaucoma, moderate glaucoma, and advanced glaucoma.

Introduction: Haemodynamic atrioventricular delay (AVD) optimisation has primarily focussed on signals that are not easy to acquire from a pacing system itself, such as invasive left ventricular catheterisation or arterial blood pressure (ABP). In this study, standard clinical central venous pressure (CVP) signals are tested as a potential alternative.
Methods: Sixteen patients with a temporary pacemaker after cardiac surgery were studied.

Background And Objectives: Objective of the study is to explore the possibility of utilization of seven part fully automated hematology analyzer for enumeration of residual leukocytes (residual white blood cells [rWBCs]) in leukoreduced packed red cells (LR-PRCs) prepared from whole blood at a blood center as an alternate to the gold standard method, flow cytometry. In this study, we evaluate the performance characteristic of hematology analyzer against flow cytometry for the estimation of rWBCs in 39 LR-PRC units.
Materials And Methods: PRCs prepared from whole blood donations by 39 donors were leukoreduced and their volumes were noted.
