Certain Childhood ALL Subtypes Linked to Genetic Ancestry
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a type of cancer that affects white blood cells. It progresses quickly and aggressively and requires immediate treatment. Both adults and children can be affected. Although it is rare, ALL is the most common type of leukemia that affects children. More...10 Feb 2022
Intestinal Microbiota Determines the Risk of MDRO Acquisition
Colonization and infection by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) remains a public health problem. This is particularly important in intensive care units (ICUs) where the risk of MDRO acquisition/colonization results from the selective pressure associated with prolonged broad-spectrum antibiotic treatment. More...10 Feb 2022
Genetic Clues Link Lipoprotein A to Prostate Cancer Risk
Some factors associated with higher risk of prostate cancer (PCa) cannot be modified, such as older age and being of African descent. Meanwhile, other risk factors for the aggressive form of the disease, such as smoking and obesity, can potentially be modified. More...07 Feb 2022
RNA Sequencing Improves Gene Fusion Detection for Childhood Cancer Diagnostics
Analysis of whole tumor RNA in children with cancer significantly increases the detection of gene fusions, which can provide information concerning the exact cancer type, the aggressiveness of the tumor, and the possible benefit of targeted drugs. More...07 Feb 2022
