Treponemal Subspecies Discriminated by LAMP
Human yaws is a tropical skin disease of children caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum subsp. pertenue (TPE). Skin ulcers are the most characteristic clinical manifestations associated with infection in all three active disease stages, primary, secondary, and tertiary yaws. More...26 Apr 2018
Molecular Technology Identifies Potential Biomarker for Cancer
For patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the only recommended treatment option is surgery. After complete resection patients with disease at the same stage experience different outcomes, and within five years a third of patients relapse. More...26 Apr 2018
Assay Detects Hepatitis B in Multiple Specimens
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has led to more than 686,000 deaths worldwide per year. Approximately two billion individuals worldwide are infected with HBV and are at risk of developing cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, which ranks fifth in terms of malignant cancer mortality. More...25 Apr 2018
Genetic Variant Identified As Better Marker for CV Disease
A newly identified subset of a known genetic variant found primarily in individuals of South Asian descent may be a better marker for carriers of heart dysfunction in this population and that individuals with this genetic variant are more likely to develop early signs of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. More...24 Apr 2018
CSF Examined for Enteroviral Nervous System Infection
Infections caused by enteroviruses are among the most common infectious diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). Enterovirus infections account for 40-77% of all viral meningitis cases in adults. An infection of the meninges results in an uncharacteristic headache usually accompanied by fever and neck stiffness. More...19 Apr 2018
Blood Test Predicts Onset of TB in Advance
Tuberculosis, caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB), is the world's leading cause of death brought on by a single pathogen. More than 10 million new cases of TB are diagnosed each year, and almost two million people die from the disease. More...18 Apr 2018
