New Method May Lower Costs Associated with HDL-CEC Measurements
Circulating high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles mediate reverse cholesterol transport by carrying excess cholesterol from the periphery, such as the arterial wall, to the liver for excretion into the bile. HDL-mediated cholesterol efflux capacity is a functional attribute that may have a protective role in atherogenesis. More...18 Sep 2019
Biomarker Identified for Early Beta-Cell Death in Type 1 Diabetes
Beta cells in the pancreas produce insulin and their death is a key feature of Type 1 diabetes, and that loss starts long before diagnosis. However, there has been no straightforward way to measure that early loss. More...18 Sep 2019
Serum HMGB1 Levels Reflect Clinical Features of HLH
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a life-threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome. Hypercytokinemia secreted from dysregulated hyperactivated monocytes, macrophages, T cells and NK cells has been reported to play a major role in HLH. More...17 Sep 2019
Increased Risk of Hypoandrogenemia Found in Obese Young Men
Hyperandrogenism is a medical condition characterized by high levels of androgens in females, but men with obesity may be at increased risk for developing hypoandrogenemia or low free testosterone, especially if they have more severe obesity. More...12 Sep 2019
New Blood Test Helps Detect Brain Injury in Minutes
After traumatic brain injury (TBI), plasma concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) correlates with intracranial injury visible on computerized axial tomography (CT) scan. Some patients with suspected TBI with normal CT findings show pathology on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). More...11 Sep 2019
