Innovative Nanosensor Developed for Disease Diagnosis
In human breath, diverse components are found including water vapor, hydrogen, acetone, toluene, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon monoxide, which are more excessively exhaled from patients. Some of these components are closely related to diseases such as asthma, lung cancer, type 1 diabetes mellitus, and halitosis. More...03 Aug 2017
Serum Pepsinogen Validated for Atrophic Gastritis Diagnosis
Atrophic gastritis (AG) and intestinal metaplasia (IM) are well-recognized as high-risk conditions for developing gastric cancer (GC), and both have been identified as the precancerous lesions, but the clinical symptoms of AG are not specific. More...01 Aug 2017
Immunoassay Systems Compared for Trisomy Screenings
The biochemical serum markers free β-human chorionic gonadotropin (hCGβ) and pregnancy associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A) are used in screening for trisomy 21 (T21), trisomy 18 (T18), and trisomy 13 (T13) during the first trimester. More...25 Jul 2017
Novel Biomarker Identifies Early Clinical CV Disease
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and the economic, social, and costs associated with treating CAD are very high. The severity of coronary artery lesions has been proven to be associated with the risk of future cardiovascular events. More...19 Jul 2017
