Combined DNA Technologies Analyzed for Malaria Diagnosis

Malaria is one of the most important parasitic infectious diseases for which almost half of the world’s population is at risk. Although several diagnostic methods are now available to detect the infection, more sensitive and applicable tests are still required in the field. More...

Warfarin Bleeding Risk SNPs Identified in African Americans

Major Warfarin-related bleeding occurs more frequently in African Americans than in other populations. Identification of potential genetic factors related to this adverse event may help identify at-risk patients. More...

HPV DNA Test Monitors Remission in Oral Cancer

A blood-based method has been developed to test patients with human papillomavirus-associated oral cancers for signs of remission or recurrence. This approach would potentially allow doctors to more accurately and more easily identify which patients are free from cancer after radiation treatment, and which might be poised to recur. More...

Ultrasensitive Screening Platform Detects Pathogenic Bacteria

A diagnostic platform has been developed that significantly increases the sensitivity of high-throughput sequencing for detection and characterization of bacteria, virulence determinants, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes. More...

Functional Genomic Landscape of AML Analyzed

Acute myeloid leukemia is a cancer of the myeloid line of blood cells, characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal cells that build up in the bone marrow and blood and interfere with normal blood cells. More...

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Fall into Genetic Subgroups

Myeloproliferative neoplasms are a group of chronic blood cancers associated with a risk of bleeding and blood clots, but they can also progress to more advanced disease, including leukemia. More...

Multidrug-Resistant TB Outbreak Undetected by Standard Tests

Rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to anti-tuberculosis drugs is essential to prevent further acquisition of drug resistance, high morbidity and mortality, and unabated transmission of resistant strains. More...
