Four milliliters of venous blood (2 ml preoperative and 2 ml postoperative) were collected into an EDTA test tube from each study participant by Medical Laboratory Science professionals. Hemoglobin concentration was determined using UniCel DxH 800 (Beckman Coulter, USA) automated hematology analyzer by spectrophotometry method15 (link). Hemoglobin concentration was analyzed at the hospital hematology laboratory and recorded for each study participant using a laboratory result registration form.

Blood values had been taken into consideration at the time of diagnosis before administration of any treatment when patients were admitted to the hospital. Venous blood specimens were drawn into sterile standard tubes containing ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) as an anticoagulant and evaluated within 1 h after venipuncture using a Beckman Coulter UniCel DxH800 hematology analyzer. PC, RDW, WBC, MPV, NLR, and PLR values were then obtained directly from the routine blood tests through the medical database.

Fasting venous blood samples of the subjects were collected and centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature. The samples were stored at −80°C until being analyzed. Blood cell analysis was measured using an automatic blood analyzer (UniCelDxH 800, BECKMAN, USA). Serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone, LH, estradiol, progesterone, total testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, thyroid-stimulating hormone, fasting insulin (FINS), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), and hs-CRP were measured using commercially available kits on an autoanalyzer by enzyme chemiluminescent immunoassay (ADVIA1800, Siemens, Germany). Insulin resistance was calculated by the homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR; FPG [mmol/L] × FINS [μIU/mL]/22.5).

UniCel DxH800 (Beckman Coulter) automates measured hemoglobin level, MCV, MRV, MSCV, delta (MCV‐MSCV), IRF (the count of reticulocytes with the highest RNA). The instruments were regularly controlled by internal and external quality controls, and their analytical variability was lower than 1% for all considered parameters.

Biomarker Analysis of Fasting Blood

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fasting venous blood samples were collected from all subjects and centrifuged at 3500 rpm for 10 minutes at room temperature. Samples were stored at –80°C until analysis. Blood cell analysis was performed using an automatic blood analyzer (UniCelDxH 800, BECKMAN). Serum levels of HCY, CRP, and lipid indices were measured using commercially available kits on an autoanalyzer by enzyme chemiluminescent immunoassay (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, ADVIA1800, Siemens AG, Germany).

Comprehensive Blood Cell and Metabolic Analysis

RDW measurement was performed with peripheral venous blood using an automated complete blood cell counter (UniCel DxH 800, Beckman Coulter Inc., Miami, FL, USA), which simultaneously provides values for hemoglobin, MCV, mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), platelet count, and total white blood cell count. Other collected laboratory data are total cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The eGFR was calculated using the abbreviated Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study equation [186 x Serum Creatinine-1.154 x Age-0.203 x (0.742 if female)] [18 (link)].

Structured Questionnaire and Blood Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
An interviewer-administered structured questionnaire, adapted from the WHO STEPS instrument,23 was used to collect socio-demographic profiles, behavioral related factors, and clinical data of eligible participants.
After the interview and detailed review of the medical record, 5mL of the venous blood sample was collected from each eligible study participant using 5-cc sterile syringes, through the aseptic technique. About 2.5 mL of blood was dispensed into a labeled test tube containing ethylene-diamine-tetra acetic acid (EDTA) anticoagulant for testing of RBC parameters. The remaining 2.5 mL of blood was collected in a separate EDTA test tube for the analysis of HbA1c. The specimen was then transported to JMC laboratory unit for analysis on the same date of specimen collection to prevent whole blood hemolysis. RBC parameters were analyzed by a fully automated hematology analyzer, UniCel DxH 800 (Beckman Coulter, USA). HbA1c was determined by a fully automated Cobas® 6000 chemistry analyzer (Roche Diagnostics, Germany).

Anthropometric and Hematological Evaluation of Diabetic Patients

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Socio-demographic data like age, sex, residence, occupation, and educational status were collected by a pretested structured questionnaire. Duration of diabetes and fasting blood sugar levels of the previous two months were tracked review of the patient’s medical records. The anthropometric data such as height, weight, and waist circumference (WC) were collected by following the anthropometric measurement protocol. Body mass index (BMI) was determined as weight in kilograms divided by height in meter squared.
Five milliliters of venous blood sample (2mL in a serum separator tube and 3mL in a K2EDTA tube) were collected using a vacutainer blood collection system from each diabetic patient. Again, three milliliters of venous blood were collected into a K2EDTA test tube from each control group. Fasting blood glucose was estimated from a serum separator tube by glucose oxidase method,25 using Biosystems A25 (Costa Brava, Spain) clinical chemistry analyzer. Red blood cell parameters were determined by UniCel DxH 800 (Beckman Coulter, USA) hematology analyzer by following the electrical impedance and spectrophotometry principle.26

Blood samples were centrifuged at 800xg at 4°C for 10 min in a bench centrifuge. Supernatant (plasma) was aliquoted and stored on dry ice until all samples were frozen at -80°C. Sodium and potassium plasma concentrations were determined using ion selective electrodes with an ionized sodium/potassium analyzer KNA1 (Radiometer, Copenhagen, Denmark). Creatinine and urea were measured using an AU5800 analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Hospitalet de Llobregat, Spain). C-reactive protein was determined using the AU-5800 Chemistry Analyzer (Bekman Coulter, Miami, FL, USA). Complete blood counts were performed with the Unicel DxH800 automated hematology analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Miami, FL, USA).

The complete blood counts were performed on the Unicel DxH800 automated hematology analyzer (Beckman Coulter, Miami, FL, USA). N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was quantified in whole EDTA blood using the AQT90 FLEX immunoassay (Radiometer Medical, Copenhagen, Denmark). Serum creatine kinase (CK) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined using the AU-5800 Chemistry Analyzer (Beckman Coulter). Troponin T was measured from serum, using a High Sensitive Troponin-T assay in a Cobas e601 platform (Roche Diagnostics, Barcelona, Spain). ST2 was measured from serum samples using a high-sensitivity sandwich monoclonal immunoassay (Pressage® ST2 assay, Critical Diagnostics, San Diego, CA, USA).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
