Heterogeneity Influences Cancer Immunohistochemistry Results
Many gastric cancer (GC) patients are with inoperable lesions and endoscopic biopsy becomes the only available approach to obtain tumor tissues for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) assessment. Unlike resected specimens, biopsy specimens are influenced by many factors and in turn more difficult to manipulate. More...06 Jun 2017
Strip Test Enables Home Monitoring of Heart Condition
Heart failure can often be managed with medications and lifestyle changes, but its progression needs to be monitored closely to adjust treatment and prevent emergency room visits. Now scientists have developed a simple paper test strip that could potentially allow patients to monitor themselves for the first time. More...05 Jun 2017
Graphene-Based Sensor Helps Predict Asthma Attacks
Researchers have developed a prototype graphene-based device that detects inflammation in lungs, which could lead to earlier detection of asthma attacks and improve the management of asthma and other respiratory diseases, preventing hospitalizations and deaths. The invention helps pave the way for developing small wearable devices that could indicate when and at what dosage to take medication. More...05 Jun 2017
Untethered Proteins Could Help Diagnose MKD
Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD), also known as HIDS (hyper IgD syndrome), is a rare genetic condition that affects approximately 200 individuals worldwide. It is a spectrum of disease, with complications that range from mild to severe. MKD is one of more than 8,000 known rare and genetic conditions, which, although individually uncommon, collectively affect up to 10% of the population. More...30 May 2017
