Altered expression of circular RNAs in human placental chorionic plate ‐derived mesenchymal stem cells pretreated with hypoxia
ConclusionsThe results indicate that the altered expression of specific circRNAs in MSCs is associated with hypoxic preconditioning. This finding provides further exploration of underlying mechanisms of the characteristic changes of MSCs with hypoxic preconditioning. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)

Use of the Sysmex XT ‐4000i hematology analyzer in the differentiation of cerebrospinal fluid cells in children
ConclusionWe conclude that automated method cannot fully replace the previously used manual method and some of the dubious cases, such as samples with low pleocytosis rates or abnormal cells indicated by the analyzer, will still require microscopic examination.

Importance of sample volume to the measurement and interpretation of plasma osmolality
ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that Posm measured by freezing point depression will be ~7  mmol/kg higher when using 20 μL vs 250 μL sample volumes. Approximately half of this effect may be due to plasma proteins. Posm sample volume should be carefully considered when calculating the osmole gap or assessing hydration status.

Combined testing for herpes simplex virus and Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with aseptic meningitis in Burkina Faso, West Africa
ConclusionUsing an in ‐house real‐time PCR assay, we showed that both HSV and MTB are etiologic pathogens contributing to aseptic meningitis in Burkina Faso. This molecular test may have clinical utility for early diagnosis for those treatable CNS infections. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)

Circulating CEA ‐dNLR score predicts clinical outcome of metastatic gallbladder cancer patient
ConclusionOur findings implied that pretreatment CEA ‐dNLR score was superior to the other biomarkers to predict OS of mGBC patients, and it was an independent prognostic factor for the disease. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)

The relationship between platelet indices and ABO blood groups in healthy adults
ConclusionsBecause MPV and PDW are used as markers of CVDs, individuals with O and A blood groups in this study may be considered to have a lower risk of CVDs than AB and B blood group subjects. However, prospective cohort studies involving a greater number of volunteers are needed to elucidate these relationships. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)

A low cost and input tailing method of quality control on multiple annealing, and looping ‐based amplification cycles‐based whole‐genome amplification products
ConclusionsOur tailing method can provide a new WGA quality test to evaluate the WGA efficiency with 100% accuracy (42/42). Compared with qPCR panel, our tailing method needs lower input, cheaper cost, shorter manual time, a clear filtering cut off, and extendable high throughput as well as the same sensitivity.

Prevalence of food ‐allergen and aeroallergen sensitization among people in Sichuan, Western China: An 8‐year observational study
ConclusionThe most common allergens presented in Sichuan were observed to be mites, crab, sea ‐fish, and house dust. There was an observable difference in sensitivity to five allergens between males and females. Additionally, aeroallergens appeared to have a greater immunogenic effect in younger populations while the elderly presented with increased sensitization to specific allergens, sug gesting that specific allergens' immunogenicity was age‐dependent.

Preliminary study of the relationship between promoter methylation of the ANGPTL2 gene and coronary heart disease
ConclusionsThe present work provides evidence to support an association betweenANGPTL2 promoter DNA methylation status and the risk profile of CHD in females. Our data indicated that in females, promoter DNA hypomethylation of theANGPTL2 gene is associated with an increased risk of CHD. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)

Association of VDR ‐FokI and VDBP‐Thr420Lys polymorphisms with cervical spondylotic myelopathy: A case‐control study in the population of China
ConclusionBinary logistic regression analysis confirmed thatVDR‐FokI polymorphism and the time to bend over desk working were risk factors of CSM. Our results indicate thatVDR‐FokI polymorphism may be closely associated with the risk of CSM. (Source: Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis)
