Whole-Blood Testing Diagnoses Acute Zika Virus Infections
Zika virus infections are linked to congenital malformations in neonates from mothers infected during pregnancy and to neurologic disorders in adults. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is the most reliable method for confirming Zika virus infections. More...04 Jul 2019
Cardiovascular Risk Biomarkers Found for JSLE Patients
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease typically affecting women between the ages of 15 and 50, and symptoms flare up unpredictably. Approximately 20% of cases begin during childhood and in these patients the disease is suggested to be more severe. More...25 Jun 2019
Higher Estrogen Levels Linked to Severe Disease in Scleroderma
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune, connective tissue disease of unknown etiology characterized by immune system dysregulation and excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis. As in most autoimmune diseases, there is a female predominance in SSc with a female to male ratio of 3:1, which increases to 9:1 during childbearing years. More...19 Jun 2019
NA Amplification Tests for Clostridium Diagnosis Reviewed
Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile infection (CDI) is the leading cause of health care-associated infections in the USA. It accounts for 15% to 25% of health care-associated diarrhea cases in all health care settings, with 453,000 documented cases of CDI and 29,000 deaths in the USA in 2015. More...19 Jun 2019
