Paraproteins Identification Methods Compared for Monoclonal Gammopathies
Monoclonal gammopathy, also known as paraproteinemia, is the presence of excessive amounts of myeloma protein or monoclonal gamma globulin in the blood. It is usually due to an underlying immunoproliferative disorder or hematologic neoplasms, especially multiple myeloma. More...18 Mar 2021
Cardiac Troponins Assessed for Acute Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by dyspnea, peripheral edema and fatigue. Diagnosing HF can be difficult due to overlapping symptoms with other conditions, and the phenotype of HF varies due to a broad spectrum of underlying pathophysiology. More...17 Mar 2021
Biomarker Protein Investigated in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common pediatric rheumatologic disease that may persist into adulthood and impact quality of life. The diagnosis is mainly based on clinical assessment rather than relying on laboratory testing. More...09 Mar 2021
Immune Response to Insulin Identifies Risk of Juvenile-Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes (T1D), also known as juvenile diabetes, is a form of diabetes in which very little or no insulin is produced by the islets of Langerhans (containing β-cells) in the pancreas. Insulin is a hormone required for the body to use blood sugar. More...08 Mar 2021
Fibrinogen to Albumin Ratio Reflects ANCA‐Associated Vasculitis Activity
Microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) belong to a group of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)‐associated vasculitis (AAV). More...04 Mar 2021
Rh Alloimmunization Explored in Chronically Transfused Thalassemia Patients
Chronic life-long transfusions are often required for patients with severe thalassemia to provide normal red blood cells and to suppress the patients’ own ineffective erythropoiesis. Cumulative exposure increases the risk for red cell alloimmunization and subsequent delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions (DHTRs). More...01 Mar 2021
