Evaluation of immature granulocyte parameters in myeloid neoplasms assayed by Sysmex XN hematology analyzer.

ABSTRACT: Immature granulocytes (IGs) have significance for the diagnosis of myeloid neoplasms (MNs). The current study aims to use a hematology analyzer to evaluate the accuracy of IG parameters in MNs. Blood specimens from 388 patients with MN, 524 with non-hematological neoplasms (non-HNs), including 109 patients with inflammation and 68 undergoing G-CSF administration, and 500 healthy control subjects were analyzed. IG parameters was assayed by Sysmex XN-9000 (XN) and compared with manual assessments. A high level of agreement between IG% derived from XN and manual measurements for MN patients (r = 0.828, p < 0.0001) was revealed but only a moderate correlation for acute myeloid leukemia patients (AML; r = 0.597; p < 0.0001). Bland-Altman bias analysis was conducted, and the results showed that differences in IG% from XN and manual analysis for MN patients were considered clinically insignificant. ROC analysis demonstrated a good performance of IG# (AUC = 0.842) and IG% (AUC = 0.885) assessed by XN for MN patients with cut-off values of 0.200 × 10⁹/L and 1.95%, respectively. IG parameters from Sysmex XN analyzer are helpful for screening of MNs even though granulocyte morphological abnormalities may interfere with IG parameter accuracy.

Project description:BackgroundThe Sysmex XN-V is derived from the new Sysmex XN series of human hematology analyzers. The main changes from the previously validated XT-2000iV analyzer include an optic-fluorescent analysis for platelets and nucleated RBC count.ObjectiveWe aimed to validate the Sysmex XN-V for canine blood according to American College for Veterinary Clinical Pathology and International Council for Standardization in Hematology recommendations.Materials and methodsCanine EDTA blood specimens and quality control material were analyzed on the Sysmex XN-V to evaluate imprecision, bias, linearity, a comparison with the XT-2000iV analyzer, interference effects, carry-over, and stability. We also verified previously established Sysmex XT-2000iV reference intervals (RIs).ResultsImprecision and bias were low (<5%) for most variables. Observed total error was lower than allowable total error for most measured variables except lymphocytes and monocytes. Visually determined linearity was excellent for all variables, except for lymphocytes. The correlation between the XN-V and XT-2000iV analyzers was high (>0.93) for all variables except MCHC and reticulocyte indices. Correlations between the Sysmex XN-V and manual differential counts were good for neutrophils and eosinophils, acceptable for lymphocytes, and fair for monocytes. Hemolysis, lipemia, and to a lesser extent icterus, had significant effects on measured hemoglobin concentration and associated variables. Carry-over was not visually observed for any variable. Changes in the Sysmex XN-V measurements after storage at 4℃ and 24℃ were similar to those described for the Sysmex XT-2000iV analyzer. The previously established Sysmex XT-2000iV RIs can be used to interpret results from the Sysmex XN-V analyzer for most variables except red blood cell distribution width and mean platelet volume.ConclusionsThe performance of the Sysmex XN-V analyzer was excellent and compared favorably with the Sysmex XT-2000iV analyzer.

Project description:Background Cell population data (CPD) parameters related to neutrophils, such as fluorescent light intensity (NE-SFL) and fluorescent light distribution width index (NE-WY), have emerged as potential biomarkers for sepsis. However, the diagnostic implication in acute bacterial infection remains unclear. This study assessed the diagnostic value of NE-WY and NE-SFL for bacteremia in patients with acute bacterial infections, and those associations with other sepsis biomarkers. Methods Patients with acute bacterial infections were enrolled in this prospective observational cohort study. For all patients, a blood sample, with at least two sets of blood cultures, were collected at the onset of infection. Microbiological evaluation included examination of the blood bacterial load using PCR. CPD was assessed using Automated Hematology analyzer Sysmex series XN-2000. Serum levels of procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), presepsin, and CRP were also assessed. Results Of 93 patients with acute bacterial infection, 24 developed culture-proven bacteremia and 69 did not. NE-SFL and NE-WY were significantly higher in patients with bacteremia than in those without bacteremia (p < 0.005, respectively), and were significantly correlated with the bacterial load determined by PCR (r = 0.384 and r = 0.374, p < 0.005, respectively). To assess the diagnostic value for bacteremia, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used. NE-SFL and NE-WY showed an area under the curve of 0.685 and 0.708, respectively, while those of PCT, IL-6, presepsin, and CRP were 0.744, 0.778, 0.685, and 0.528, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the levels of NE-WY and NE-SFL were strongly correlated with PCT and IL-6 levels. Conclusion This study demonstrated that NE-WY and NE-SFL could predict bacteremia in a manner that may be different from that of other indicators. These findings suggest there are potential benefits of NE-WY/NE-SFL in predicting severe bacterial infections.

Project description:BackgroundAccurate and timely diagnosis of malaria is essential for disease management and surveillance. Thin and thick blood smear microscopy and malaria rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are standard malaria diagnostics, but both methods have limitations. The novel automated hematology analyzer XN-30 provides standard complete blood counts (CBC) as well as quantification of malaria parasitemia at the price of a CBC. This study assessed the accuracy of XN-30 for malaria detection in a controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) study and a phase 3 diagnostic accuracy study in Burkina Faso.MethodsSixteen healthy, malaria-naive CHMI participants were challenged with five Plasmodium falciparum-infected mosquitoes. Blood was sampled daily for XN-30, blood smear microscopy, and malaria qPCR. The accuracy study included patients aged > 3 months presenting with acute febrile illness. XN-30, microscopy, and rapid diagnostic tests (HRP-2/pLDH) were performed on site; qPCR was done in retrospect. The malaria reference standard was microscopy, and results were corrected for sub-microscopic cases.ResultsAll CHMI participants became parasitemic by qPCR and XN-30 with a strong correlation for parasite density (R2 = 0.91; p < .0001). The XN-30 accurately monitored treatment and allowed detection of recrudescence. Out of 908 patients in the accuracy study, 241 had microscopic malaria (density 24-491,802 parasites/μL). The sensitivity and specificity of XN-30 compared to microscopy were 98.7% and 99.4% (PPV = 98.7%, NPV = 99.4%). Results were corrected for qPCR-confirmed sub-microscopic cases. Three microscopy-confirmed cases were not detected by XN-30. However, XN-30 detected 19/134 (14.2%) qPCR-confirmed cases missed by microscopy. Among qPCR-confirmed cases, XN-30 had a higher sensitivity (70.9% versus 66.4%; p = .0009) and similar specificity (99.6% versus 100%; p = .5) as microscopy. The accuracy of XN-30 for microscopic malaria was equal to or higher than HRP-2 and pLDH RDTs, respectively.ConclusionsThe XN-30 is a novel, automated hematology analyzer that combines standard hemocytometry with rapid, objective, and robust malaria detection and quantification, ensuring prompt treatment of malaria and malaria anemia and follow-up of treatment response.Trial registrationBoth trials were registered on clinicaltrials.gov with respective identifiers NCT02836002 (CHMI trial) and NCT02669823 (diagnostic accuracy study).
