Custom NanoString Assay Detects Bowel Cancer Subtypes
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The median overall survival of metastatic (m)CRC patients with unresectable disease remains around 24 months with standard chemotherapies. More...13 Jun 2019
Genetic Familial Hypercholesterolemia Prevalent in Premature CVD
Premature coronary artery disease (CAD) is a major cause of mortality and morbidity. Increased low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) level is a major risk factor for CAD and thus the main target for its prevention. More...12 Jun 2019
Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis Diagnosed by Molecular Test
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is a common opportunistic fungal infection, mainly affecting patients with severe and prolonged neutropenia. Early diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is notoriously difficult, but crucial for prompt treatment initiation required to improve patient outcome. More...12 Jun 2019
Sequencing Study Links DNA Alterations to Type 2 Diabetes
According to statistics from the World Health Organization, over 400 million people worldwide have diabetes. The vast majority of these cases are type 2 and diabetes is estimated to be the seventh leading cause of death globally. More...06 Jun 2019
FDA Clears CT/NG Assays for Extragenital Testing
Chlamydia trachomatis commonly known as chlamydia is a bacterium that can replicate only in human cells. It can manifest in various ways, including: trachoma, lymphogranuloma venereum, non-gonococcal urethritis, cervicitis, salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory disease. More...05 Jun 2019
Genomic Analysis Uncovers Differences in Liver Cancer Subtypes
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is the second most common malignancy arising from the liver. ICC makes up about 10% of all cholangiocarcinomas. It arises from the peripheral bile ducts within the liver parenchyma, proximal to the secondary biliary radicals. More...05 Jun 2019
Oral Bacteria Found in Cerebral Emboli of Stroke Patients
In addition to traditional causative factors, such as hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes mellitus, smoking, and obesity, bacterial inflammation has been suggested to contribute directly or indirectly to the development of the atherosclerosis and atherothrombotic events. More...05 Jun 2019
