Pulmonary Embolism Diagnosed by Improved Interpretation of Blood Tests
Pulmonary embolism is the sudden blockage of a major blood vessel (artery) in the lung, usually by a blood clot. In most cases, the clots are small and are not deadly, but they can damage the lung and if the clot is large and stops blood flow to the lung, it can be deadly. More...10 Dec 2019

Genetic Architectures of Schizophrenia Compared in Different Populations
While the common genetic variants contributing to schizophrenia in East Asian individuals appear to broadly resemble those found in Europeans, polygenic risk scores (PRS) for the condition cannot necessarily be transferred from one population to the next. More...05 Dec 2019

Marker Panel Detects Early Liver Cancer with Increased Sensitivity
Several types of cancer can form in the liver. The most common type of liver cancer is hepatocellular carcinoma, which begins in the main type of liver cell (hepatocyte). Other types of liver cancer, such as intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and hepatoblastoma, are much less common. More...05 Dec 2019


New Blood Test Marks Progress in Battle Against Sepsis
Sepsis is a serious condition in which the immune system launches an overwhelming response to infection. The cause of the infection can be any type of microbe, including fungi, bacteria, and viruses, but usually, it is bacteria. More...03 Dec 2019

Longitudinal Molecular Trajectories of Adult Diffuse Glioma Examined
Until relatively recently, cancer was viewed as a single disease with sub-types based on where in the body it arose. The advent of detailed molecular analysis has shown that the situation is far more complicated, however, and that there can be many sub-clonal cell populations even within a single tumor. More...02 Dec 2019

New Biomarker Discovered for Cancer Stem Cells
Tumors often contain a small subset of drug-resisting, self-renewing, and highly metastatic cells called tumor initiating cells or cancer stem cells (CSCs). These cells can self-renew, divide asymmetrically, and form tumors in isolation. More...28 Nov 2019
