Blood Test Predicts Response to Immunotherapy in Metastatic NSCLC

 Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with higher measures of tumor mutations that show up in a blood test generally have a better clinical response to PD-1-based immunotherapy treatments than patients with a lower measure of mutations. More...

Esophageal Cancer Precursor Detected by Electronic Nose Device

 Barrett's esophagus is a condition in which the lining of the esophagus changes, becoming more like the lining of the small intestine rather than the esophagus. This occurs in the area where the esophagus is joined to the stomach. More...

Heterogeneous Populations of Melanoma Circulating Tumor Cells Detected

 Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be assessed through a minimally invasive blood sample with potential utility as a predictive, prognostic and pharmacodynamic biomarker. The large heterogeneity of melanoma CTCs has hindered their detection and clinical application. More...

Severe Strongyloidiasis Infection Reported in Kidney Transplant Recipients

 Strongyloides stercoralis is a soil-transmitted human pathogenic parasitic roundworm causing the disease strongyloidiasis. It is found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. Many people infected are asymptomatic at first. Symptoms include dermatitis: swelling, itching, larva currens, and mild hemorrhage at the site where the skin has been penetrated. More...

Proteogenomic Characterization of Endometrial Carcinoma Analyzed

 Endometrial cancer is a cancer that arises from the endometrium which is the lining of the uterus or womb. It is the result of the abnormal growth of cells that have the ability to invade or spread to other parts of the body. More...

All-Digital Histopathology Attained by Infrared-Optical Hybrid Microscopy

 The gold standard of tissue pathology is to add dyes or stains so that pathologists can see the shapes and patterns of the cells under a microscope. However, it can be difficult to distinguish cancer from healthy tissue or to pinpoint the boundaries of a tumor, and in many cases diagnosis is subjective. More...

Image: Normal electrocardiogram (ECG) and an ECG showing QT interval prolongation (long QT syndrome). The P wave represents atrial depolarization; the QRS complex, ventricular depolarization; and the T wave, ventricular repolarization. The QT interval is measured from the beginning of the QRS complex to the return of the T wave to the isoelectric line (Photo courtesy of Mayo Clinic).

Several Genes Linked to Long QT Syndrome Reappraised

 Long QT syndrome (LQTS) is the first described and most common inherited arrhythmia. Over the last 25 years, multiple genes have been reported to cause this condition and are routinely tested in patients. More...
