Benign Tissue Structural Features Predict Risk of Prostate Cancer Recurrence Following Surgery
A preliminary study found that evaluation of a collection of structural features observed in normal tissues surrounding a prostate tumor was a better predictor of risk of recurrence of the cancer following surgical removal of the tumor by radical prostatectomy (RP). More...18 Jul 2016
Detection of Circulating Tumor DNA Predicts Colon Cancer Recurrence
A team of American and Australian cancer researchers has demonstrated that circulating fragments of tumor DNA (ctDNA) could serve as a biomarker for identifying patients with high risk of recurrence of colon cancer. More...18 Jul 2016
Heart Transplantation Recipients Unaffected by Donor Troponin Levels
Many transplant centers routinely reject hearts if the donor’s blood test reveals elevated levels of troponin I, a protein found in heart muscle that enters the bloodstream when there is a heart attack or other heart muscle damage. Donors with previous heart disease are automatically excluded. More...14 Jul 2016
Likely Flaws Uncovered for LM-Method for Lyme Disease Detection
According to a new study, the recently developed modified microscopy technique “LM-method” of examining blood samples to help diagnose Lyme disease (and babesiosis) – is unable to distinguish infected patients from healthy controls, yielding many false-positive results. More...12 Jul 2016
Urine Protein Panels Identify Prostate Cancer and Differentiate between Tumors
A noninvasive diagnostic test for prostate cancer is based on protein signatures that can differentiate patients from healthy individuals and those with aggressive tumors from those with less dangerous growths. More...12 Jul 2016
