Immunoassay Detects Severe Fever with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome Virus
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a tick-borne infectious disease with a high case fatality rate, and is caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV) and the disease is endemic to China, South Korea, and Japan. More...25 Apr 2016
Novel Multiplex Immunoassay Developed for Chagas Disease
Different tests are available for the diagnosis of Chagas disease in the clinic or for screening of blood donations. Direct detection of parasite Trypanosoma cruzi in the blood is performed by microscopy, hemoculture, xenodiagnoses, or detection of the parasite’s nucleic acids. More...21 Apr 2016
Novel Method Detects Bacterial Infection in Preterm Infants
A new criterion has been proposed for diagnosis of bacterial infection in preterm infants and using this method could lead to early diagnosis and treatment for bacterial infection and improve the prognosis for preterm infants. More...12 Apr 2016
Test Predicts Death in Patients with Serious Liver Disease
Acute-on-chronic liver failure is a sudden deterioration of the liver function in a patient with liver cirrhosis accompanied by failure of one or more organ systems and this liver disease has a serious prognosis and the four-week mortality rate is 20% to 30%. More...12 Apr 2016
Zika Virus Inactivated in Plasma for Transfusion
The potential for Zika virus transmission through blood transfusion has been demonstrated during the French Polynesian outbreak as 2.8% of blood donors, who were asymptomatic at the time of donation, were found positive for acute ZIKV infection using specific reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction. More...03 Apr 2016
Noninvasive Method Determines Subclinical Childhood Celiac Disease
A new, simple and noninvasive method has been developed to determine whether a child aged two to four years of age suffers from celiac disease or not, without the necessity of a blood extraction. Silent celiac disease goes unnoticed to the eyes of the doctor because it presents minor symptoms, imperceptible even for the patient. More...29 Mar 2016
