Near Normal Aminotransferase Levels Reported in Alcoholic Cirrhosis Patients
Alcoholic cirrhosis affects around 1 in 400 adults in the USA. It is an advanced form of liver disease, which occurs when chronic ethanol use leads to inflammation and cirrhosis or scarring of the liver. Less than 50% of people diagnosed with advanced liver disease due to cirrhosis survive for one year, and so early diagnosis is crucial. More...30 Dec 2021

Biomarker FR+CTC Explored for Breast Cancer Diagnosis
The prognosis of breast cancer is dramatically improved owing to progress on the early diagnosis and effective therapy, and the survivor number is higher than any other types of cancers. However, the number of new breast cancer cases reached 2.26 million in 2020, accounted for 11.7% of all new tumor cases. More...30 Dec 2021

Tissue Counterpart to Monoclonal B-Cell Lymphocytosis Characterized
Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (MBL) was initially proposed to recognize patients with a monotypic B-cell population identified by peripheral blood (PB) flow cytometry (FC) that did not meet numerical criteria for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). More...27 Dec 2021

3D Imaging Method Determines Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer for men and, for men in the USA, and it is the second leading cause of death. Prostate cancer treatment planning is largely dependent upon examination of core-needle biopsies. The microscopic architecture of the prostate glands forms the basis for prognostic grading by pathologists. More...23 Dec 2021


Genomic Screening Can Identify Risk for Amyloid Cardiomyopathy
Transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) a is a rare, progressive disease characterized by the abnormal buildup of amyloid deposits composed of misfolded transthyretin protein in the body’s organs and tissues. ATTR can be hereditary and lead to a spectrum of other diseases and conditions, including cardiomyopathy, a common precursor to heart failure. More...15 Dec 2021

Cystic Pancreatic Lesion Bacteria Are Precursors to Pancreatic Cancer
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most aggressive and lethal types of cancer. The 5-year survival rate at the time of diagnosis is about 10%, as approximately 80%–85% of patients present either unresectable or metastatic disease. PC accounts for roughly 459,000 new cases and 432,000 deaths. More...08 Dec 2021
