Serum Biomarkers Enable Tracing the Progress of COVID-19 Infections
A team of Spanish investigators has shown that levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 and various truncated versions of this protein in the blood could be used as biomarkers for following the progress of COVID-19 infection in hospitalized patients. More...20 Jul 2021
Rectal Colonization by Klebsiella Leads to Different Risks for Bacteremia
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) represent a threat for public health, being among the top multidrug-resistant pathogens. Intestinal colonization by CRE is a risk factor for developing subsequent infection. More...20 Jul 2021
Telomerase Reverse Transcriptase Protein Expression Evaluated for Melanomas
Telomeres are regions of repetitive nucleotide sequences located at the ends of chromosomes that play a key role in the maintenance of genomic integrity and stability in cells. In normal nonneoplastic somatic cells, telomeres progressively shorten with successive cell divisions. More...19 Jul 2021
Metabolomic Analytical Approach Identifies Multiple Neonatal Errors of Metabolism Disorders
A recent paper demonstrated that an untargeted metabolomics analytical approach could identify many more neonatal disorders caused by inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) than could be found by traditional methods. More...19 Jul 2021
Rotavirus Co-Infection with Diarrheagenic Pathogens Detected by Different Methods
Diarrhea is the second most common cause of childhood mortality worldwide, with Group A Rotavirus (RVA) recognized as a leading diarrheagenic agent, causing 38% of acute diarrhea among children aged five and below worldwide. More...14 Jul 2021
