RDW Blood Test Can Predict Mortality and Re-Admission Among Elderly, Hospitalized Patients
New research has found that higher red cell distribution width (RDW), an index for variation of red blood cell size, is associated with increased rates of in-hospital mortality and hospital re-admission among older (>60) patients. More...25 May 2022
ALL Genomes Marked by High DNA Methylation Levels
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer and consists of multiple subtypes with distinct gene expression profiles defined by constellations of somatic mutations, chromosomal rearrangements deregulating oncogenes or encoding chimeric fusion transcripts and aneuploidy. More...24 May 2022
Machine Learning Radically Reduces Workload of Cell Counting for Disease Diagnosis
Machine learning methods are increasingly spreading into the area of blood cell counting, until recently dominated by expensive and often less accurate traditional cell analyzers. However, due to the enormous amount of manual annotation work required, training the machine learning model has so far proven highly labor-intensive. Now, researchers have developed an innovative training method that automates much of this activity. More...24 May 2022
Complete Blood Count Parameters Associated With Pancreatic Beta-Cell Function
The pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) involves insulin resistance (IR) and progressive deterioration of beta-cell function (BCF). Estimation of IR and BCF is essential for screening subjects at a high risk of T2DM and making treatment plans in clinical practice. More...19 May 2022
Microvascular/Endothelial Dysfunction Contributes to Post-COVID Syndrome Pathogenesis
Post-COVID syndrome (PCS) or Long-COVID is an increasingly recognized complication of acute SARS-CoV-2 infection, characterized by persistent fatigue, reduced exercise tolerance chest pain, shortness of breath and cognitive slowing. More...17 May 2022
