Large Malignant Testicular/Paratesticular Tumors in Adolescence: Assessment of Gross Tumor Size in a Vulnerable Age Group
CONCLUSION: This adolescent cohort with malignant testicular and paratesticular tumors showed a high proportion (11.8%) of very large (≥10 cm) tumors. Although the reasons are unknown and likely multifactorial, this study suggests that adolescents, particularly the 11-13 year age group, are a vulnerable population.PMID:38514050 (Source: Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science)

Letter to the Editor: Comparing the Novel Parameter 'Slope of the Steepest Part of Hemolysis Curve' to Standard Median Corpuscular Fragility for Evaluating Erythrocyte Stability during Prolonged Storage
CONCLUSION: Prolonged storage of whole blood samples leads to an increase in osmotic fragility and alters the shape of the hemolysis curve. These changes suggest that postponing the osmotic fragility test could lead to diagnostic inaccuracies. These findings suggest that slope value is a more accurate parameter for evaluating erythrocyte stability during storage, compared to commonly used Median corpuscular fragility value. Hence, it has potential importance and can be complementary to the laboratory result of the OFT. Therefore, it can be useful to provide these results jointly with the results of the OFT test.PMID:385140...

Idiopathic Thrombocytosis in Alpha Thalassemia Trait Patient
We present here a case of microcytic hypochromic red blood cells and thrombocytosis in an adolescent female that we have monitored for three years. The patient was positive for alpha thalassemia trait; negative for mutation in Janus kinase 2, calreticulin, or myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene; and negative for reactive causes of thrombocytosis. Noticeably, a variant in atypical chemokine receptor 1 (ACKR1) (c.-67T>C, rs2814778) was found to be homozygous. Accordingly, the case was diagnosed as idiopathic thrombocytosis, and treatment was given to restore platelet levels to normal. Our findings highlight the pos...

 Technical Note: Comparison of Alinity c Hemoglobin A1c Immunoassay with Premier Hb9210 Automated HPLC Assay: A Preliminary Report
CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that HbA1c assay on the Alinity c analyzer is a viable alternative to HPLC for measuring HbA1c in clinical laboratories but values at the decision points must be interpreted with caution and if necessary should be repeated by a reference HPLC method.PMID:38514062 (Source: Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science)
