Background/aims: The incidence of steatotic liver disease (SLD) is increasing across all age groups as the incidence of obesity increases worldwide. The existing noninvasive prediction models for SLD require laboratory tests or imaging and perform poorly in the early diagnosis of infrequently screened populations such as young adults and individuals with healthcare disparities. We developed a machine learning-based point-of-care prediction model for SLD that is readily available to the broader population with the aim of facilitating early detection and timely intervention and ultimately reducing the burden of SLD.

Electrochemical aptamer-based biosensors (E-aptasensors) are emerging platforms for point-of-care (POC) detection of complex biofluids. Human saliva particularly offers a noninvasive matrix and unprecedented convenience for detecting illicit drugs, such as cocaine. However, the sensitivity of cocaine E-aptasensors is significantly compromised in saliva.

Oral cancer (OC) is a disease with poor prognosis mainly due to late diagnosis. There is considerable interest in the use and development of rapid, point of care (POC) non-invasive methods that can accelerate the diagnostic process. Bioimpedance (BI) is resistance to the passage of electric currents through tissue that reflects structural changes in the tissue.

Background/objectives: Lupus nephritis (LN) is a serious complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), involving immune complex deposition in the kidneys. While renal biopsy is the diagnostic gold standard, its invasiveness limits frequent use, driving the need for non-invasive urinary biomarkers to monitor disease progression and response to treatment. This study aimed to identify and validate urinary biomarkers for LN.

Steroid hormones, especially progesterone (P), estradiol (E), and testosterone (T), are key bioactive regulators in various female physiological processes, including growth and development, ovulation, and the reproductive cycle, as well as metabolism and mental health. As lipophilic molecules produced in sex glands, these steroid female hormones can be transported through blood vessels into various body fluids such as saliva, sweat, and urine. However, the ultralow concentration of steroid hormones down to picomolar (pM) level necessitates great demands for ultrasensitive but low-cost analytic tools to implement accurate, point-of-care or even continuous monitoring in a user-friendly fashion.
