How to Measure Cognitive Decline In Older Patients
Primary care practitioners are often the first to address a patient’s or family’s concerns about memory loss or the possibility of dementia. Detecting cognitive decline as early as possible is fundamental to a patient’s ability to receive earlier access to treatments and therapies, and, consequently, more effective treatment and improved health outcomes. There are several ...

Assessment of a urinary TRUS/biomarker-based risk score as inclusion criteria for multiparametric MRI to detect clinically significant prostate cancer
BACKGROUND Non-invasive techniques like urinary biomarkers and multiparametric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (mpMRI) show great promise for the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (PCa), leading to a reduction of over-diagnosis and over-treatment. Apart from yet to be established diagnostic accuracy is the systematic use of mpMRI challenging due to the high cost of setting up, ...

LncRNA Sequencing Helps to Find Deep Links to Disease
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNAs that do not code for proteins and are typically greater than 200 nucleotides in length. Studies have shown that lncRNAs are quite complex in function and play an important role in various biological processes such as development, differentiation, proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis, stem cell pluripotency, and DNA damage. Therefore, those ...

What Are Heparins?
Heparin, also known as standard heparin or unfractionated heparin, is a linear polysaccharide consisting of 1-4 linked disaccharide repeat units of uronic acid and glucosamine residues. Heparin was discovered nearly 100 years ago and has been used clinically as a blood anticoagulant since 1935. This is due to its ability to bind to the antithrombin(serine protease inhibitor), causing the ...
