Whole Blood Donation Affects the Interpretation of Hemoglobin A1c
INTRODUCTION Several factors, including changed dynamics of erythrocyte formation and degradation, can influence the degree of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) formation thereby affecting its use in monitoring diabetes. This study determines the influence of whole blood donation on HbA1c in both non-diabetic blood donors and blood donors with type 2 diabetes. METHODS In this observational study, 23 non...

Reassessing a widely recognized algorithm Members of the Primary Care Respiratory Alliance of Canada have undertaken a critical appraisal of a spirometry interpretation algorithm that is a component of an interactive CD-ROM titled Spirometry in Primary Care.1 This CD-ROM is produced by the Ontario Lung Association and endorsed by the Ontario Thoracic Society, the Ontario Respiratory Care Societ...
متن کاملX-linked clonality testing: interpretation and limitations.
Clonality often defines the diseased state in hematology. Clonal cells are genetically homogenous and derived from the same precursor; their detection is based on genotype or phenotype. Genotypic clonality relies on somatic mutations to mark the clonal population. Phenotypic clonality identifies the clonal population by the expression pattern of surrogate genes that track the clonal process. Th...
متن کاملLimitations in the interpretation of intravenous carotid digital subtraction angiography.
To evaluate the limitations of intravenous carotid digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in the diagnosis of carotid disease, studies of 130 patients were reviewed. Factors that resulted in a nondiagnostic study included: (1) misregistration larynx artifact overlying the carotid bifurcation; (2) external carotid or vertebral artery overlying the internal carotid artery; and (3) poor arterial co...
متن کاملLimitations in the use and interpretation of continuous relative phase.
Continuous relative phase (CRP), a variable used to quantify intersegmental coordination, is difficult to interpret if care is not taken regarding the assumptions and limitations of the measure. Specifically, CRP is often interpreted as a higher resolution form of discrete relative phase (DRP). DRP, however, yields information regarding the relative dispersion of events in oscillatory signals w...
