Diagnostic Accuracy of Histoplasma Urine Antigen Assay Evaluated
Histoplasmosis is an endemic mycosis in many regions of Latin America. In the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected population it manifests as progressive disseminated histoplasmosis (PDH), an entity hard to diagnose since the causative fungi, Histoplasma capsulatum, is slow growing and requires advance biosafety for its handling.

Plasma Human Proteins Associated with Acute Pediatric Malaria
Severe malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum continues to be one of the leading infectious causes of morbidity and mortality in children worldwide. The intimate interaction between the pathophysiology of the human host and the biology of the P. falciparum parasite results in a wide spectrum of disease outcomes in malaria. More...27 Nov 2018
Ebola Test with Portable Reader Authorized for Emergency Use
Ebola is a rare but deadly virus that causes fever, body aches, and diarrhea, and sometimes bleeding inside and outside the body. As the virus spreads through the body, it damages the immune system and organs. Ultimately, it causes levels of blood-clotting cells to drop. This leads to severe, uncontrollable bleeding and kills up to 90% of people infected. More...26 Nov 2018
Diagnostic Test Aids Determination of Menopausal Status
Menopause refers to the time in a woman’s life when she stops having a menstrual period and is no longer fertile. During the menopausal transition, the body's production of estrogen and progesterone, two hormones made by the ovaries, varies greatly. More...15 Nov 2018
Highly Sensitive Immunoassay Detects Malarial Histidine-Rich Protein 2
Malaria is a vector-borne disease of major public health relevance worldwide. The detection of submicroscopic infections in low prevalence settings has become an increasingly important challenge for malaria elimination strategies. More...15 Nov 2018
Biomarkers May Predict Zika-Related Birth Defects
To date, approximately 800,000 cases of suspected and confirmed autochthonous Zika virus (ZIKV) infections have been reported in the Americas. Most people infected with the Zika virus experience no symptoms or mild illness with low-grade fever. More...13 Nov 2018
