Personal clinical history predicts antibiotic resistance of urinary tract infections
Antibiotic resistance is prevalent among the bacterial pathogens causing urinary tract infections. However, antimicrobial treatment is often prescribed ‘empirically’, in the absence of antibiotic susceptibility testing, risking mismatched and therefore ...

An integrated and flexible ultrasonic device for the continuous bladder volume monitoring [PDF]
Bladder volume measurement is critical for early detection and management of lower urinary tract dysfunctions. The current gold standard is invasive, and alternative technologies either require trained personnel or do not offer medical grade information.

A Population-Based Surveillance Study of Shared Genotypes of Escherichia coli Isolates from Retail Meat and Suspected Cases of Urinary Tract Infections. [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that retail food may serve as a source of Escherichia coli that causes community-acquired urinary tract infections, but the impact of this source in a community is not known. We conducted a prospective, population-based study

Concentration of novel urinary tract infection biomarkers in neonates
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common comorbidity in hospitalized neonates. The current UTI diagnostics have several limitations including invasive collection of urinary samples to ensure sterility, risk of contamination and lack of consensus ...

Targeted metabolomics reveals novel diagnostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer
This study employed targeted metabolomic profiling to identify 302 distinct metabolites present in platelet‐rich plasma (PRP), revealing aberrant metabolic profiles amongst individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC). Compared to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 19‐9 (CA199), our metabolite panel showed improved sensitivity ...
