Annual Report of JLPM (2021)

Dear all,

We are pleased to share with you the 2021 annual report of the Journal of Laboratory and Precision Medicine (JLPM). In 2021, with the joint effort and support of all contributors, JLPM made great progress with publication of 32 articles, and increased website pageviews and visitors. For more details, please see the following report.

Clinical Application of Next-Generation Sequencing for Infectious Diseases (Ongoing)

This Series on “Clinical Application of Next-Generation Sequencing for Infectious Diseases” is edited by Chun Kiat Lee from Molecular Diagnosis Centre, Department of Laboratory Medicine, National University Health System, Singapore

New Biomarkers in Non-communicable Diseases (Ongoing)

This Series on “New Biomarkers in Non-communicable Diseases” is edited by Dr. Tatsuo Shimosawa from International University of Health and Welfare, School of Medicine, IUHW Narita Hospital, Department of Clinical Laboratory,852 Hatakeda, Narita, Chiba 286-8520 Japan

Iron Metabolism

The exploration of iron metabolism is an old topic of interest. Indeed, this metal has a significant impact on human health. Iron deficiency is responsible for abnormal neurodevelopment in infants. Moreover, more and more scientific reports have evidenced that iron deficiency, even without anemia, is a risk factor in various diseases and is implied in the response and recovery after surgery. As a sum, it would be interesting to overview and update the actuality of iron in human health.

Calcium Adjustment in Laboratory Medicine (Ongoing)

This Series on “Calcium Adjustment in Laboratory Medicine” is edited by Dr. Nudar Jassam from Blood Sciences Department, Harrogate Hospital, Harrogate, UK.

Investigative Algorithms in Laboratory Medicine – Electrolytes and Acid/Base (Ongoing)

This Series on “Investigative Algorithms in Laboratory Medicine – Electrolytes and Acid/Base” is edited by Dr. Kate E Shipman from University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, Worthing Hospital, Worthing, United Kingdom.

Pleural Fluid Analysis

Etiological diagnosis of pleural effusion (PE) remains a challenge for clinicians. Although thoracoscopy has high diagnostic accuracy in patients with undiagnosed PE, it has some limitations, such as invasiveness and the requirement for special training. Pleural fluid analysis shows a high diagnostic accuracy in undiagnosed PE. The preanalytical errors in pleural fluid biochemistry remain largely unknown. Taken together, this series focuses on the analytical and clinical aspects of pleural fluid analysis, with the overall aim of providing novel insights into the field of pleural fluid analysis for both clinicians and laboratory specialists.

Laboratory Medicine in Diabetic Kidney Disease (Ongoing)

This Series on “Laboratory Medicine in Diabetic Kidney Disease” is edited by Dr. Rafael Noal Moresco from Laboratory of Clinical Biochemistry, Department of Clinical and Toxicological Analysis, Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Santa Maria, RS, Brazil.

Adult Spontaneous Hypoglycaemia

This Series on “Adult spontaneous hypoglycaemia” is edited by Dr. Rousseau Gama from The Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust and Wolverhampton University, UK.
