Biochemical profiling and symptomatology of androgen deficiency in males with cluster headache: A prospective case–control study

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives/Background Cluster headache (CH) has historically been considered a male‐dominated disorder, suggesting a role for androgens in its pathophysiology. We aimed to evaluate hormone profiles and symptoms of androgen deficiency in CH.

Impacts of the use of chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay-measured plasma aldosterone concentration in the diagnostic process of unilateral primary aldosteronism: a real-world multicenter study in Japan

Endocrine Journal
Unilateral primary aldosteronism (UPA) is characterized by a severe clinical phenotype and can be cured by adrenalectomy. Establishing accurate cutoff values that indicate the need for adrenal venous sampling (AVS) is crucial.

Radioimmunoassay and revolution in medical investigation: Nobel Prize winner in Physiology or Medicine (1977) Rosalyn Yalow – scientist with a fighting spirit [PDF]

The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal
An intelligent but poor New York City girl, whom her parents saw in the future only as a teacher at best, Rosalyn Yalow after finishing school in 1937 went to all-female Hunter College and was the first woman with a degree in physics at a time when being

The Expression of Neuropeptides in Pulpitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuropeptides play key roles in the inflammatory, nociceptive and reparative processes of the dental pulp. Their upregulation has been frequently observed in inflamed pulps, suggesting potential diagnostic value supporting a role for neurogenic inflammation in symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

Serum‐derived microribonucleic acids as potential novel biomarkers for slowly progressive type 1 diabetes mellitus

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This study evaluated serum miRNAs as biomarkers in adult patients with SPIDDM. Serum miRNAs were measured at the time of SPIDDM (probable) diagnosis, and miR‐150‐5p was inversely associated with CPI at the last outpatient visit, suggesting its potential utility for predicting subsequent insulin secretory decline.

Evaluation of a non-radioactive rapid test for determination of serum progesterone in South American camelids. [PDF]

Vet Rec
Abstract Background Determination of the serum progesterone (P4) concentration is of high importance in reproductive medicine and may be applied for diagnosing pregnancy in South American camelids. P4 measurements in alpacas and llamas are usually performed using immunoassays, which are time consuming and require appropriate expertise of laboratory ...

Role of glucagon in metabolic diseases

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Currently, diabetes is defined as “a chronic hyperglycemic state resulting from the absolute or relative insufficiency of insulin action,” emphasizing its characterization as an insulin‐related disease. However, glucagon dysregulation should also play a critical role in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes.

Radioimmunoassay of sulfated lithocholates

Journal of Lipid Research, 1977
A sensitive, rapid radioimmunoassay for sulfated species of lithocholic acid (sulfolithocholyglycine, sulfolithocholyltaurine, and sulfolithocholic acid) was developed and used to measure the total concentration of sulfated lithocholates in serum from ...
