The choice of anticoagulants and the methods of homogenization are critical pre-analytical steps that can significantly influence the accuracy of laboratory results. This study aims to assess the differences in erythrocyte count and hemoglobin levels among blood samples processed with conventional anticoagulants and Vacutainer tubes, taking into account variations in secondary homogenization techniques. A laboratory experimental design was employed, utilizing 32 blood samples acquired from eight participants. The analysis was conducted using an automated hematology analyzer. Data were subjected to a Paired T-Test, indicating no significant differences in erythrocyte counts (p=0.617) and hemoglobin levels (p=0.510) between conventional EDTA samples that were homogenized four times and those homogenized eight times. However, a significant difference was noted in erythrocyte counts (p=0.018), while hemoglobin levels remained unaffected (p=0.393) in EDTA vacutainer samples subjected to four versus eight rounds of secondary homogenization. Additionally, a significant difference was found in both erythrocyte counts (p = 0.008) and hemoglobin levels (p < 0.0001) between conventional EDTA samples and those subjected to four rounds of secondary homogenization using vacutainers. Similarly, there was a significant difference in erythrocyte counts (p = 0.006) and hemoglobin levels (p = 0.014) between conventional EDTA samples and Vacutainer samples that underwent eight rounds of homogenization.

Students at the “X” Islamic Boarding School in Sidoarjo face nutritional problems (deficiency or excess) and stress due to academic burden, strict rules, and adaptation to a new environment. This study investigated the multifaceted relationship between nutritional intake, physical activity, nutritional knowledge, social support, counseling guidance, coping strategies, and stress levels about the nutritional status of students aged 13–17 years (n = 91) using a cross-sectional design. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire that measured academic burden, social pressure, social support, counseling services, coping success, nutritional knowledge, peer support, self-efficacy in choosing food, eating patterns, and anthropometric measurements (weight, height, and BMI/Age). Bivariate analysis revealed that academic burden (p < 0.001), social support (p = 0.035), counseling guidance (p = 0.011), and coping (p = 0.015) were significantly associated with stress, while social pressure was not (p = 0.611). Stress significantly influenced nutritional status (p=0.001), while nutritional knowledge (p=0.013), peer support (p=0.002), self-efficacy (p=0.014), and dietary patterns (p<0.001) were significantly correlated with nutritional status. In conclusion, psychosocial factors and nutritional behavior simultaneously influence the physical and mental well-being of students, so a comprehensive strategy is needed to improve student well-being that includes academic management, strengthening social support, counseling services, increasing knowledge and coping, and dietary education.
