Simple Urine Test Significantly Improves Detection of Adrenal Cancer

Prognosis for patients discovered to have an adrenal cortical carcinoma (ACC), a cancerous adrenal mass, is poor, and a cure is only achievable through early detection and surgery. The incidental discovery of an adrenal mass often triggers additional scans to determine whether the mass is cancerous. More...

Lipocalin 2 Proposed as Biomarker for Bacterial Meningitis

Central nervous system (CNS) infections cause significant mortality and morbidity worldwide. Common CNS infections include bacterial meningitis (BM) other than tuberculosis, viral encephalitis, tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and cryptococcal meningitis, but there are more than 100 documented infectious causes of CNS infections.
