10 trends in diagnostics - from printed diagnostics to Epigenetics

10 trends in diagnostics - from printed diagnostics to Epigenetics | Immunology Diagnosis | Scoop.it

By Suzanne Elvidge

 

Diagnostics are not always perceived as being as exciting or glamorous as therapeutics, but this is a field that is growing and changing just as fast.

Rather than simply being a way to identify which patients have a specific disease, diagnostics are now used to support clinical development of drugs, predict disease before symptoms begin, forecast the progress of a disorder, and identify patients who are most likely to respond (or not respond) to specific treatments.

We've found 10 widely varying trends in diagnostics, from the use of biomarkers in early-stage clinical development to devices and platforms that are already on the market and improving outcomes for patients, and from simple and low-cost paper-based diagnostics at just a dollar or two a test to high-tech genomics screening in cancer.

The one thing that all of these have in common is innovative and exciting science and design, and the opportunity to make patients' lives better. If you know of any technologies in diagnostics that that are just as exciting, please let us know. -- Suzanne Elvidge (email)

ARUP Scientific Resource for Research and Education: : Educational Resources - Diagnosis of Monoclonal Gammopathies | University of Utah | Immunology Diagnosis | Scoop.it

Monoclonal gammopathies are diagnosed by a triad of criteria including clinical symptoms of the disease, bone marrow analysis and clinical laboratory testing. Protein electrophoresis and immunofixation in serum and urine are the most common tests in clinical laboratory for diagnosis of monoclonal gammopathies. More recently, serum free light chain testing has become an important tool for diagnosis and prognosis of these conditions. The indications and limitation of these clinical laboratory tests are reviewed in this presentation.

Autoimmunity Reviews - Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis - November 2012

Autoimmunity Reviews - Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis - November 2012 | Immunology Diagnosis | Scoop.it

Systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA) sets well apart from all the other forms of JIA. Several observations show that sJIA is etiopathogenically different from all the other forms of JIA and has a prominent autoinflammatory component. A major role in the pathogenesis is played by two proinflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6 and interleukin-1. The specific inhibition of these two cytokines is going to change not only the therapeutic approach to the disease but also, presumably, its long term prognosis.

Neutropenia (Assessment of) - Overview - at BMJ

Neutropenia (Assessment of) - Overview - at BMJ | Immunology Diagnosis | Scoop.it

Neutrophils are essential components of the haematopoietic and immune system, and quantitative or qualitative abnormalities of neutrophils can result in life-threatening infection. Neutropenia is a low neutrophil count and results from decreased production, accelerated utilisation, increased destruction, or a shift in compartments. A combination of these mechanisms may be present. Causes can be congenital or acquired. The most serious complication of neutropenia is infection, which can be fatal. The source is usually endogenous flora of the gut and mucosa (commonly Staphylococcus and gram-negative organisms). Fungal infections occur with increased frequency, but there is no increased risk of viral or parasitic infection. Common sites of infection include mucous membranes (gingivitis, stomatitis, perirectal abscesses), skin (cellulitis), and lungs (pneumonia).
