Practical application of the patient data-based quality control method: the potassium example
CONCLUSIONS: The daily average value of patient-generated data was superior to IQC in terms of the efficiency and timeliness of detecting systematic errors but inferior to IQC in detecting random errors.PMID:38361737 | PMC:PMC10864027 | DOI:10.11613/BM.2024.010901 (Source: Biochemia Medica)

Effects of reverse osmosis membrane replacement of pure water system on clinical chemistry and immunoassay in clinical laboratory
CONCLUSIONS: Replacement of RO membrane could cause significant interference to TG test while have no effects on other laboratory tests performed in the study, which may be due to glycerol contamination. Our data provides important reference for management of test interference caused by RO membrane replacement. Clinical laboratory should observe the effects of RO membrane replacement on laboratory tests through both water quality monitoring and QC detection.PMID:38361738 | PMC:PMC10864026 | DOI:10.11613/BM.2024.010705 (Source: Biochemia Medica)

Adapting power calculations to include a superiority margin: what are the implications?
Biochem Med (Zagreb). 2024 Feb 15;34(1):010101. doi: 10.11613/BM.2024.010101.ABSTRACTThis paper examines the application of super-superiority margins in study power calculations. Unlike traditional power calculations, which primarily aim to reject the null hypothesis by any margin, a super-superiority margin establishes a clinically significant threshold. Despite potential benefits, this approach, akin to a non-inferiority calculation but in an opposing direction, is rarely used. Implementing a super-superiority margin separates the notion of the likely difference between two groups (the effect size) from the minimum clini...
