Diagnostic Utility of Full‐Length BP180 and Native BP180‐α6β4 Integrin Complex ELISAs in Serologically Inconclusive Mucous Membrane Pemphigoid

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is a chronic autoimmune subepithelial blistering disorder of mucosal surfaces that can cause irreversible scarring, blindness, or dysphagia. Early diagnosis is challenging because histopathology is nonspecific and conventional BP180 NC16A ELISAs have limited sensitivity.

Optimum timing of cerebral computed tomography angiography for determination of death using neurological criteria: a retrospective sensitivity cohort study

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Cerebral computed tomography angiography (CTA) is increasingly incorporated into national guidelines to confirm cerebral circulatory arrest during the determination of death using neurological criteria. However, implementation remains limited due to studies showing variable sensitivity.

Multiplex polymerase chain reaction for pathogen detection in donor/recipient corneal transplant tissue and donor storage solution

Scientific Reports, 2017
Corneal transplantation is a safe, reliable method of restoring visual acuity in patients with corneal disorders. Although it has a very high success rate, rejection can still occur, especially if the site is infected.
