n autoverification system for coagulation consists of a series of rules that allows normal data to be released without manual verification. With new advances in [[medical informatics]], the [[laboratory information system]] (LIS) has growing potential for the use of autoverification, allowing rapid and accurate verification of [[clinical laboratory]] tests. The purpose of the study is to develop and evaluate a LIS-based autoverification system for validation and efficiency.

"Data sharing at scale: A heuristic for affirming data cultures"

Addressing the most pressing contemporary social, environmental, and technological challenges will require integrating insights and sharing data across disciplines, geographies, and cultures. Strengthening international data sharing networks will not only demand advancing technical, legal, and logistical infrastructure for publishing data in open, accessible formats; it will also require recognizing, respecting, and learning to work across diverse data cultures. This essay introduces a heuristic for pursuing richer characterizations of the “data cultures” at play in international, interdisciplinary data sharing. The heuristic prompts cultural analysts to query the contexts of data sharing for a particular discipline, institution, geography, or project at seven scales: the meta, macro, meso, micro, techno, data, and nano. The essay articulates examples of the diverse cultural forces acting upon and interacting with researchers in different communities at each scale. The heuristic we introduce in this essay aims to elicit from researchers the beliefs, values, practices, incentives, and restrictions that impact how they think about and approach data sharing. Rather than represent an effort to iron out differences between disciplines, this essay instead intends to showcase and affirm the diversity of traditions and modes of analysis that have shaped how data gets collected, organized, and interpreted in diverse settings.
