Urinary Biomarkers Predict Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with COVID-19

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a sudden episode of kidney failure or kidney damage that happens within a few hours or a few days. AKI causes a build-up of waste products in the blood and makes it hard for the kidneys to keep the right balance of fluid in the body. More...

Red Blood Cells Function as Critical Immune Sensors by Binding Cell-Free DNA

Red blood cells (RBCs) are essential for aerobic respiration through delivery of oxygen to distant tissues. However, RBCs are currently considered immunologically inert, and few, if any, secondary functions of RBCs have been identified. More...

T-Cells with CD20 Protein Marker May Drive Early Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition that can affect the brain and spinal cord, causing a wide range of potential symptoms, including problems with vision, arm or leg movement, sensation or balance. It's a lifelong condition that can sometimes cause serious disability, although it can occasionally be mild. More...

Immune Chemokines Biomarkers Explored for Pediatric Tuberculosis Diagnosis

Diagnosis of active tuberculosis (TB) in children provides a key challenge, because most of the clinical symptoms of TB in children are non-specific with signs and symptoms that resemble common pediatric illnesses, including pneumonia and malnutrition and therefore clinical diagnosis is unreliable. More...

Inflammation Associated with Heart Failure in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Heart failure is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), but data for the subtypes of heart failure, with preserved ejection fraction versus reduced ejection fraction, have been sparse. More...

Osteopontin Biomarker Evaluated for COVID-19 Severity and MIS-C

Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a serious condition that appears to be linked to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Most children who become infected with the COVID-19 virus have only a mild illness. More...
