POC Urinalysis System Evaluated for Schistosomiasis
Schistosoma haematobium is one of the three main human species of digenetic trematodes, belonging to a group of blood flukes, and causes the urinary form of schistosomiasis and remains a significant public health problem worldwide, despite years of efforts to control it. More...02 Jul 2019
Vitamin D Status Determined in Older Adults
Vitamin D has a known role in bone health, with growing evidence for beneficial effects on muscle strength and other non-skeletal outcomes. Vitamin D deficiency is often associated with adverse health outcomes in older adults. The circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) status predominately relies on UV exposure. More...25 Jun 2019
Cardiovascular Risk Biomarkers Found for JSLE Patients
Systemic lupus erythematosus is an autoimmune disease typically affecting women between the ages of 15 and 50, and symptoms flare up unpredictably. Approximately 20% of cases begin during childhood and in these patients the disease is suggested to be more severe. More...25 Jun 2019
Novel Blood Test for Myocardial Infarction Tested
The level cardiac myosin-binding protein C (cMyC) in the blood increase more rapidly after a myocardial infarction, and to a higher extent, than troponin. This means meaning that the new test can rule out a myocardial infarction in a higher proportion of patients straight away. More...19 Jun 2019
Trace Metal Concentrations Influence Glucose Regulation in Pregnancy
Gestational diabetes is a condition in which a woman without diabetes develops high blood sugar levels during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes generally results in few symptoms; however, it does increase the risk of preeclampsia, depression, and requiring a Caesarean section. More...12 Jun 2019
