Department of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Research (includes the UNDP/UNFPA/UNICEF/WHO/World Bank Special Programme of Research, Development and Research Training in Human Reproduction [HRP]), World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland.
Introduction: International guidelines recommend routine screening for syphilis (aetiological agent: Treponema pallidum subspecies pallidum) amongst key populations and vulnerable populations using tests detecting treponemal and non-treponemal antibodies. Whilst treponemal tests have high sensitivities and specificities, they differ regarding subjective or objective interpretation, throughput and workload. Chemiluminescence immunoassays (CLIAs) are cost- and time-effective automated methods for detecting treponemal antibodies.

Department of Endocrinology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, China.
Objective: Familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) has not been thoroughly studied in the Chinese population to date. The clinical characteristics of FDH in Chinese patients were summarized, and the susceptibility of common free thyroxine (FT4) immunoassay methods was evaluated.
Methods: The study included 16 affected patients from eight families with FDH admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University.

Objective: To study a role of vitamin D and other indicators of calcium-phosphorus metabolism as possible predictors of Parkinson's disease (PD).
Material And Methods: The main group consisted of 138 patients with PD, the control group included 79 patients without PD. Serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) were determined by chemo-luminescence immunoassay.

Objective: This study examined the association between DII and sex hormones and SHBG in U.S.
Feasibility of nasal NO screening in healthy newborns.
Pediatr Pulmonol
January 2022
Division of Respiratory Medicine & Children's Research Centre, University Children's Hospital Zurich.
Background: Nasal nitric oxide (nNO) measurement is recommended as a first line screening test for primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). While reliable velum- and non-velum-closure techniques exist for preschool children and older individuals, no data are available for neonates.
Aims: To determine feasibility of nNO screening and nNO concentration in healthy newborns in the first week of life.
