Novel Microfilarial Antigen Diagnoses Lymphatic Filariasis Infections
Lymphatic filariasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by the filarial nematodes Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi and Brugia timori. Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a deforming and disabling disease caused by parasitic nematodes that are transmitted by mosquitoes. More...08 Jun 2022
Viral Antigen Detected in Cerebrospinal Fluid of COVID Patients
Neurologic symptoms are common in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and include anosmia, encephalopathy, encephalitis, and cerebrovascular manifestations, including stroke. The neuroinvasive capacity of SARS-CoV-2 is questionable. More...31 May 2022
Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplants Improve Microbiome, Immune Cells
Past studies have suggested ties between microbial diversity and favorable allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) outcomes, or transplants involving stem cells from healthy donors. The interactions between the gut microbial community and the immune system can influence an individual's response to a bone marrow transplant to treat leukemia, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and other blood conditions.

Autoantibodies Combined With Tumor Markers Detect Lung Cancer
Lung cancer (LC) is one of the most common cancers in the world and is the primary cause of cancer-related death. According to the pathological type, LC can be categorized into small cell LC (SCLC) and non-small cell LC (NSCLC). NSCLC includes squamous cell carcinoma (LSC), adenocarcinoma (LAC), and large cell cancer. More...26 May 2022
Elecsys Androstenedione Immunoassay Evaluated and Compared
Androstenedione (ASD) is a biomarker used in the diagnostic workup of hyperandrogenism, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, premature adrenarche, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Androstenedione is the precursor of testosterone and estrone and is produced in the gonads and adrenal glands. More...20 May 2022
Combining RDTs Determines Dengue Immune Status
Dengue is an emerging arboviral infectious disease (DENV), transmitted through the bite of an Aedes mosquito that burdens much of the urbanized tropical and subtropical world. Current dengue diagnostics are primarily concerned with capturing active infections, thus no such method exists for determining primary or post-primary DENV infections, at the point of care. More...18 May 2022
Biomarker Proenkephalin Investigated in Diagnosis of Acute Kidney Injury
Liver transplantation (LT) is the only treatment available for patients with end-stage liver disease, such as liver cancer or acute and subacute liver failure. Among the various types of postoperative organ damage, acute kidney injury (AKI) is particularly prevalent, developing in 5% to 20% of patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery.
