Blood Test Monitors Nerve Protein in MS Patients
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) in which neuronal damage is present at an early stage. Due to both unpredictable and heterogeneous disease course and treatment response, biomarkers reflecting these processes are highly sought after. More...12 Dec 2017
Metabolites Altered in Chronic Kidney Disease
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem with a high prevalence worldwide, from 10% to14% of the general population, and strongly increased age-standardized death rate, yet, there is a paucity of effective treatment options. More...07 Dec 2017
Diagnostic Test Identified for Pediatric Biliary Atresia
Biliary atresia is a rare disease of the liver and bile ducts that occurs in infants. Liver cells produce bile, which helps digest fat and carries waste products from the liver to the intestines. When an infant has biliary atresia, this flow is blocked and bile becomes trapped inside the liver, quickly causing liver damage and eventually liver failure. More...05 Dec 2017
