Prevention of serious complications depends on effective early treatment, but clinically significant jaundice may not develop until one or more days after delivery. More...17 Oct 2017
Genetic Testing Determines Safest Dose of Blood Thinner
Warfarin, commonly known as Coumadin, is frequently used to prevent a life-threatening blood clot. It is often prescribed to people having hip or knee replacement surgery, as well as to individuals with certain heart conditions that leave them vulnerable to a stroke. More...12 Oct 2017
Biomarkers of Sickle Cell and Hemoglobin SC Compared
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of inherited diseases that includes sickle cell anemia (SCA), which is the homozygous state of the beta S (βS) allele and the most severe SCD genotype. The heterozygous state of the βS allele is characterized by the presence of hemoglobin S (HbS) and is associated with a group of less severe SCD, including hemoglobin SC disease (HbSC). More...10 Oct 2017
Field Evaluation of Quantitative G6PD Diagnostics Reviewed
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PDd) is the most common enzymopathy with at least 400 million individuals affected worldwide. More than 185 clinically relevant variants of G6PDd have been reported with a spectrum of associated enzyme deficiencies. More...27 Sep 2017
Automated Slide-Based Approach Introduced for CBCs
The most commonly performed clinical laboratory test is the complete blood count (CBC). Currently, laboratory CBC systems obtain cell counts and morphologic information by maintaining the blood cells in a liquid “flow” and by using the Coulter impedance-based orifice or laser-based cytometry. More...14 Sep 2017
CSF Pleocytosis Level Investigated as Diagnostic Predictor
Migration of leukocytes to the cerebrospinal fluid is a cardinal symptom of an infectious condition affecting the meninges or the cerebral parenchyma. Bacterial and viral meningitis cannot reliably be differentiated clinically and requires lumbar puncture to analyze the cerebrospinal fluid. More...13 Sep 2017
