Uremic Toxins Level Measured in Parkinson’s Disease Patients

 Uremic-retention solutes are the compounds whose concentration in an organism increases with decreasing kidney function. At uremic concentrations, they play a crucial role in the progression of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) and have negative outcomes. More...

Next Generation Glycated Hemoglobin Assay Evaluated

 Diabetes mellitus is a pathological condition that affects all age groups worldwide. The percentage of glycated hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) reflects the mean plasma glucose level over the previous 3 to 4 months for most individuals and can be used to diagnose type 2 diabetes. More...

Effect of Lipoprotein(A) on the Diagnosis of Familial Hypercholesterolemia

 The recent focus on familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) as a high-risk condition predisposing to premature coronary artery disease (CAD) has led to more widespread screening and diagnosis of the condition. Familial hypercholesterolemia is a genetic disorder. More...

Chemical Analysis of Blood Samples Diagnoses Brain Tumors

 Brain tumors tend to have ambiguous symptoms, such as headache or memory problems, and a brain scan is currently the only reliable way of diagnosing them. In recent years, the use of infrared (IR) spectroscopy to analyze disease state in biofluids has been largely employed with promising results. More...

Novel Nanosensing Technologies Developed for Exosome Detection and Profiling

Exosomes are extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are produced in the endosomal compartment of most eukaryotic cells. Liquid biopsy technologies have been developed to do high-throughput exosome protein profiling and point-of-care (POC) exosome analysis. More...

Routine Blood Parameters Predict Invasive Aspergillosis Prognosis

Aspergillosis occurs in chronic or acute forms which are clinically very distinct. Most cases of acute aspergillosis occur in patients with severely compromised immune systems, e.g. those undergoing bone marrow transplantation. Symptoms include fever, chills, shock, delirium, seizures, and blood clots. More...
