Newly established ELISA for N‐ERC/mesothelin improves diagnostic accuracy in patients with suspected pleural mesothelioma [PDF]

open access: goldCancer Medicine, 2014
AbstractPleural mesothelioma is an aggressive tumor, commonly caused by exposure to asbestos. The prognosis of mesothelioma remains disappointing despite multimodal treatment. We reported previously that N‐ERC/mesothelin could be a useful biomarker for the early diagnosis of pleural mesothelioma and developed an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)

The Diagnostic Yield of Malignancy Comparing Cytology, FISH, and Molecular Analysis of Cell Free Cytology Brush Supernatant in Patients With Biliary Strictures Undergoing Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiography (ERC)

open access: greenJournal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2019
Background: Routine cytology of biliary stricture brushings obtained during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has suboptimal sensitivity for malignancy. We compared the individual and combined ability of cytology, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis and PCR-based mutation profiling (MP) to ...

New mechanisms involved in the development of cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease

open access: yesNefrología (English Edition), 2023
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a pathology with a high worldwide incidence and an upward trend affecting the elderly. When CKD is very advanced, the use of renal replacement therapies is required to prolong its life (dialysis or kidney transplantation).
