Portable RT-PCR Molecular Test Detects Dengue Virus with High Accuracy

There is currently no approved vaccines and medicine for dengue infection, although researchers have shown that early detection and intervention can bring about much more favorable outcome. Now, a new dengue RT-PCR virus test detects the presence of dengue virus infections with a high level of accuracy. More...

Genetic Changes Identified in Patients Who Progress to Esophageal Cancer

Barrett’s esophagus (BE), a predominantly benign metaplasia that arises in the esophagus in response to chronic gastric reflux, also develops somatic mutations, but can further evolve extensive genomic alterations which confer significantly increased risk of progression to esophageal adenocarcinoma (ESAD).
