Article Synopsis
  • Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a complex disease influenced by genetic and environmental factors, leading to immune system issues and inflammation, without established biomarkers for diagnosis.
  • A study analyzed inflammatory cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in blood cells from SpA patients and found no significant correlation with SpA.
  • The research revealed reduced levels of S100A8 and changes in calcium flow patterns in monocytes, suggesting potential new biomarkers linked to calcium regulation in the disease.

Background: Disease-independent sources of biomarker variability include pre-analytical, analytical and biological variance. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the pre-analytical phase has any impact on the emerging heart disease TWEAK and HMGB1 protein markers and miRNA biomarkers, and whether peptidome profiling allows the identification of pre-analytical quality markers.

Methods: An assessment was made of sample type (serum, EDTA-Plasma, Citrate-Plasma, ACD-plasma, Heparin-plasma), temperature of sample storage (room temperature or refrigerated), time of sample storage (0.

Background: A retrospective study was performed to evaluate whether pretreatment with erythropoietin and iron combined with acute preoperative normovolaemic haemodilution (APNH) could decrease homologous blood transfusion in craniosynostosis (CS) surgery. A treated group was compared with a historical group of infants who underwent surgery with no pretreatment.

Methods: The charts of 25 healthy infants who underwent CS surgery were reviewed.
