![]() Manuals account for 17% of Hyundai’s N Line, which includes the automatic-only Kona N. The Integra take-rate is expected to come down as more cars get into the dealer pipeline, a spokesman said. Of all Integras sold since its launch earlier in the first half of the year, 60% were manuals-about 898 of the 1496 Integras sold and equal to 1.7% of all Acuras sold year-to-date. AcuraĪmerican Honda’s premium-sporty division warmed our heel-and-toeing hearts when it brought back the Integra badge on its new sporty compact four-door hatchback with a six-speed manual option, available only on the top A-Spec with Technology Package trim. This consists of Civic Si models, which are 100% manual and account for most of that take-rate, and non-Si Civic hatchbacks, some version of which offer a six-speed manual option. Take-rate for the remaining Honda model available with a manual, the Civic, is about 5%. That comes to an 0.7% manual rate for the entire brand. Of 453,347 Hondas sold in the first half, an estimated 3516 were manuals, based on the company’s take-rates described below. Based on first half ‘22 sales, that would total 2400 for the Chevrolet brand, equal to 0.3% of total sales.Ģ022 Honda Civic Si six-speed manual. ![]() Educated guess II: Say, 20% manual Camaros (rounded down) and less than 5% Spark. No official word from Chevy on manual take-rates for its two remaining models with the option-Camaro and Spark. We don’t have a take-rate for the Blackwing models among all CT4 and CT5 models, but taking an educated guess of one-in-10 for each, let’s extrapolate a total of 480 manual Cadillacs sold in the first half of 2022, or 0.8% for the Standard of the World. Manual take-rate on the Blackwing versions of the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 currently is roughly 40%, and “was a bit higher at launch,” a spokesman says. If our take-rate guesses are correct, that’s rounded to 7900 from Ford, or 0.9% for the brand. No word from Ford, alas, on manual take-rates, so, Educated Guess I: 20% of Mustangs and 5% of Broncos, though the latter might have been higher in those first months after its late-2021 launch. Based on overall sales, the brand should have sold as many as 2400 manuals for the first half of 2022, but due to greater issues beyond its control, it scores a zero. Mini hopes to have sticks back in stock before the end of 2022. While a manual is on the options list for the 2023 Cooper and Cooper S 2-Door hardtop, 4-Door hardtop and convertible, JCW 2-Door hardtop, and front-wheel-drive version of the Cooper S Clubman, Mini has not been able to sell any sticks in the US for months “due to the supply chain issue and conflict in Ukraine,” a spokesman says. Prior to the pandemic, BMW’s British small car brand typically sold 18% to 20% with manuals across the model range, with the John Cooper Works 2-Door Hardtop typically at 40%. Estimating 5% rounded down M3/M4 take-rates for first-half 3-Series sedan and 4-Series coupe sales, and then estimating a 20% manual take-rate among those, we’ll score BMW’s manual sales at 250 units, or 0.2% of the brand. “We don’t publish the take-rate, but I can tell you that it is a solidly double-digit percentage and has been worthwhile developing it” for the current M3 and M4, a spokesman says. The only Bimmers currently offered with manuals in the US are the base, rear-wheel-drive versions of the M3 and M4, as a no-cost option. But when we were left to our own estimates, we rounded the number of units. Note that when we were quoted a precise take-rate by an automaker, we calculated the exact number of vehicles-4907 Subaru WRX/STIs, for example. Also, the full-year US sales data will need to be collected before a more definitive percentage would be available. This can only be an estimate, because the take-rates we get are often rounded and based on historical numbers. ![]() In this installment of Who’s Still Selling Stick-Shifts and How Many of Us are Buying Them?, we attempt to estimate what that number might be for the entire industry for the first half of this year, when 6.8 million vehicles were sold in the US. BMW might sell more stick-shifts when the M2 arrives in spring.Asian brands are most committed to manuals.Manual take-rate of 0.9% estimated for the entire industry in the first-half of 2022 ( 2017 Chevrolet Camaro SS pictured above).

Interfering molecules can be structurally related endogenous compounds (e.g., 6β-hydroxycortisol for a cortisol assay), drugs (including anabolic steroids and herbal medications), or natural products. One limitation of steroid hormone immunoassays is interference caused by compounds with structural similarity to the target steroid molecule against which the assay antibodies were generated. ![]() Consequently, many clinical laboratories continue to use immunoassays for routine steroid hormone measurement. However, chromatography and mass spectrometry require specialized technical skill along with dedicated and often expensive instrumentation. ![]() LC/MS/MS provides a high degree of specificity for steroid hormone measurement. An increasing number of clinical laboratories, particularly reference laboratories, utilize liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) for steroid hormone measurement. The most common alternative approach for measurement of steroid hormones is chromatography (especially high-performance liquid chromatography, HPLC), either alone or in combination with mass spectrometry (MS) (HPLC/MS or simply LC/MS). A variety of immunoassay methods are available, ranging from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) to homogeneous immunoassays that can be run on high-throughput analyzers commonly found in hospital clinical laboratories. Immunoassays are frequently used in laboratory medicine for quantitation of plasma/serum concentrations of steroid hormones such as cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) sulfate, estradiol, progesterone, or testosterone. Using two-dimensional similarity calculations, all compounds with high cross-reactivity also showed a high degree of similarity to the target molecule of the immunoassay. Norethindrone therapy may impact immunoassay measurement of testosterone in women. Several anabolic steroids may produce clinically significant false positives on the testosterone assay, although interpretation is limited by sparse pharmacokinetic data for some of these drugs. In addition, 21-deoxycortisol likely produces clinically relevant cross-reactivity for cortisol in patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency, while 11-deoxycortisol may produce clinically relevant cross-reactivity in 11β-hydroxylase deficiency or following metyrapone challenge. 6-Methylprednisolone and prednisolone showed high cross-reactivity for the cortisol assay, with high likelihood of clinically significant effect for patients administered these drugs. The Roche Elecsys Cortisol and Testosterone II assays showed a wider range of cross-reactivity than the DHEA sulfate, Estradiol II, and Progesterone II assays. ![]() ![]() If you want a number other than 10, for example 4, use `head -n 4` `head` shows the first 10 lines of a file. `cat` displays the entire contents of a file to the screen.
