Pathogenic Antibodies Decline Over Time in VITT
Vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT) has been described after vaccination with the adenoviral vector vaccines. A syndrome characterized by venous or arterial thrombosis, particularly at unusual sites including cerebral sinus venous thrombosis (CSVT)/splanchnic thrombosis, and mild to severe thrombocytopenia.

Urinary VEGFA and Renal Pathology Evaluated for IgA Nephropathy Patients
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerulonephritis and is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in China. Renal biopsy remains the golden standard for diagnosing and monitoring IgA nephropathy (IgAN). More...25 Sep 2021


First-Of-Its Kind Blood Test to Distinguish between Bacterial and Viral Infections Using Body’s Immune Response Granted FDA Clearance
A first-of-its kind test that decodes the immune response to accurately distinguish between bacterial or viral infections within minutes has been granted clearance by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). More...22 Sep 2021


CCN1 Analyzed as a Biomarker for Breast Cancer Detection
Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in women with 1.7 million new cases and over 500,000 deaths worldwide in 2016. Early detection of cancer is believed to be crucial in reducing cancer death. Despite recent progress in liquid biopsy technologies, early blood-based detection of breast cancer is still a challenge.
