    Abstract Introduction: Urinalysis is essential for diagnosing kidney-related medical conditions. Urine test strip analysis serves as an initial and efficient screening method for reflex testing with accurate quantitative methods.
    Materials and methods: Freshly voided urines (n = 206) were analysed using two urine test strip brands on UC-MAX (Menarini) and cobas u 601 (Roche Diagnostics) instruments. Ordinal scale categories and reflectance signals (if available) were both used for the comparison with reference quantitative methods for glucose, proteins and albumin (cobas 503). Samples were considered positive when glucose > 15 or ≥ 54 mg/dL, proteins ≥ 200 mg/L and albumin ≥ 10 mg/L. Optimized reflectance thresholds were calculated by ROC curve analysis. Analytical performance specifications (APS) for trueness of test strip were gathered from the EFLM guideline (FP
    Results: Reflectance signals were significantly lower in urine samples considered positive by the reference method (p < 0.0001). Reflectance signals were also correlated with quantitative measurements, showing strong correlation (0.754 to 0.969). Only the use of optimized reflectance thresholds on cobas u 601 achieved at least the minimum EFLM APS (FP
    Conclusion: The use of reflectance signals from urine test strips enhanced accuracy for glucose, proteins, and albumin measurement and may contribute to improve diagnosis of diverse kidney-related conditions.

    Abstract Introduction: An increase evasion of the SARS-CoV-2 virus towards vaccination strategies and natural immunity has been rapidly described notably due to mutations in the spike receptor binding domain and the N-terminal domain.
    Material and methods: Participants of the CRO-VAX HCP study who received the bivalent booster were followed at 6 months. A pseudovirus-neutralization test was used to assess the neutralization potency of antibodies against D614G, Delta, BA.1, BA.5, XBB.1.5, BA.2.86, FL.1.5.1, and JN-1.
    Results: The neutralizing capacity of antibodies against Omicron variant or subvariants was significantly reduced compared to D614G and Delta (p<0.0001). The lowest neutralizing response that was observed with JN-1 (GMT=22.1) was also significantly lower compared to XBB.1.5 (GMT=29.5, p<0.0001), BA.2.86 (GMT=29.6, p<0.0001), and FL.1.5.1 (GMT=25.2, p<0.0001). Participants that contracted a breakthrough infection due to XBB.1.5 had significantly higher neutralizing antibodies against all variants compared to uninfected participants, especially against Omicron variant and subvariants.
    Conclusion: Our results confirm that JN.1 is one of the most immune evading variants to date and that the BA.2.86 subvariant did not show an increased immunity escape compared to XBB.1.5. The stronger response in BKI with Omicron variant and subvariants supports the need to use vaccine antigens that target circulating variants.

    Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the results of five methods for the determination of total 25(OH)D. For that purpose, two mass spectrometry and three immunoassay methods were used.
    Methods: A total of 124 serum samples were analyzed on five different methods (i.e., a reference LC-MS/MS, Cascadion, Lumipulse, Roche Elecsys II and Roche Elecsys III). Analytical performance against LC-MS/MS was evaluated and compared to the Milan models 1 (analytical performance based on the clinical outcome using thresholds of 12, 20 and 30 ng/mL) and 2 (analytical performance based on biological variation). Additionally, imprecision studies and accuracy using NIST SRM972a samples were carried out.
    Results: Compared to the reference LC-MS/MS method, the Lumipulse and the Roche Elecsys III assays reached the optimal criterion for bias, while the Cascadion met the desirable one. The Roche Elecsys II was not able to reach the minimal criteria. The proportion of correctly classified patients was higher using the Cascadion (95.2%) compared to the three immunoassays. In addition to its better precision, the Cascadion was not impacted by a high concentration of 3-epi-25(OH)D
    Conclusions: Compared to the LC-MS/MS reference method, the Cascadion presented the highest level of concordance at medical decision cut-offs for total 25(OH)D and reached the desirable specification for bias. Moreover, the presence of 3-epi-25(OH)D
