Blood Test Identifies Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

A test based on a protein biomarker found in the blood is the basis of a scoring system that distinguishes patients with clinical heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) from healthy individuals and patients with risk factors but no heart failure. More...

Spinal Fluid Fingerprint Distinguishes Brain Infections from Diseases

Cytokine profiling has been shown to distinguish patients with infections of the brain from other diseases and may become a valuable diagnostic tool, particularly in infants and young children. More...

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...

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...
