Test Improves Accuracy in Identifying Precancerous Pancreatic Cysts

Pancreatic cysts are common and often pose a management dilemma, because some cysts are precancerous, whereas others have little risk of developing into invasive cancers. Early, accurate detection of pancreatic cancer is a high priority. More...

GWAS Links Novel Loci to Peripheral Artery Disease Risk

Peripheral artery disease (also called peripheral arterial disease, PAD)) is a common circulatory problem in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the limbs. PAD most commonly affects arteries in the legs. Both PAD and coronary artery disease (CAD) are caused by atherosclerosis. More...

Immune Molecules Expressed Inside Mycetoma Lesions

Mycetoma is a persistent, progressive granulomatous inflammatory disease caused either by fungi or by bacteria. Characteristic of this disease is that the causative agents organize themselves in macroscopic structures called grains. These grains are surrounded by a massive inflammatory reaction. More...

Low-Frequency TP53 Gene Mutations Also Found in Healthy Women

Worldwide, more than 250,000 new cases of ovarian cancer are diagnosed each year, and two-thirds of these women die from the disease. This high mortality is largely due to the high frequency of metastasis before diagnosis and a lack of effective screening and early detection methods. More...

Blood Test Complements Colonoscopy for Lynch Syndrome Patients

Lynch syndrome (LS) subjects are genetically predisposed to a high risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) and regular colonoscopy is currently the only CRC screening option recommended for these subjects, although compliance is suboptimal. More...
