Acute COVID-19 Infections Are Characterized by Elevated Blood Levels of IL-26
Increased systemic IL-26 was found to be associated with markers of hyperinflammation and tissue damage in patients with acute COVID-19, suggesting that it may be a potential target for diagnosis, monitoring, and therapy in this disease. More...22 Nov 2022
New Tool Assesses Cost of ctDNA Testing
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a promising new biomarker with multiple potential applications in cancer care. Estimating total cost of ctDNA testing is necessary for reimbursement and implementation, but challenging because of variations in workflow. More...22 Nov 2022
Multiplex Vaginal Panel Identifies Three Distinct Conditions in One Hour
A new multiplexed PCR test detects DNA from organisms associated with three distinct conditions – bacterial vaginosis, vulvovaginal candidiasis, and trichomoniasis – from a single sample, aiding in more accurate diagnosis and antibiotic treatment regimens. More...22 Nov 2022
Novel Assay Enables Simultaneous Detection of SMA and SCID in Newborns
PerkinElmer, Inc. (Waltham, MA, USA) has received US FDA authorization for the marketing of its EONIS SCID-SMA assay kit for in vitro diagnostic (IVD) use by certified laboratories for the simultaneous detection of SMA and SCID in newborns. More...22 Nov 2022
Simple Blood Test Could More Than Double Liver Cancer Detection Rate in High-Risk Population
A new study has shown that a test which is easy to perform with a routine blood sample and relatively low cost could more than double the number of liver cancer cases detected in a high-risk population compared to today's standard of care – a mix of ultrasound imaging and protein tests that few patients receive. More...22 Nov 2022
First-Ever Saliva-Based Concussion Test to Be Available in 2023
Currently, there are no biological tests to diagnose mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) or concussion. Now, new research has revealed that biomarkers found in saliva may distinguish mTBI and parallel symptom recovery. More...21 Nov 2022
