    摘要: A method for prediction of the susceptibility of an at risk patient to developing or redeveloping an infection with Clostridium difficile, having the determination by immunoassay, in a stool sample from said patient, of the level of antibody IgA anti-toxin B of Clostridium difficile, and comparing this level with a reference value S determined beforehand using two populations of patients exposed to the bacterium, one population not having developed or redeveloped such an infection and the other population having developed or redeveloped such an infection, —a level lower than said reference value S signifying that the patient is a patient with a heightened risk of developing or redeveloping a Clostridium difficile infection, and —a level higher than said reference value S signifying that the patient is not a patient with a heightened risk of developing or redeveloping a Clostridium difficile infection.

    摘要: The disclosure provides a correlation between the expression level of the miR-193a gene, which can be regulated by its methylation status, and both tumorigenesis of and the resistance of a cancer cell to a pyrimidine antimetabolite (5-FU) based chemotherapy. In addition to the methylation status and the expression of miR-193a, its downstream genes, such as E2F1, SRSF2, and apoptotic genes such as caspase 2, are also involved and can serve as useful markers for cancer therapy prognosis and for therapy selection.

    摘要: Provided are methods for evaluating the risk of an adverse clinical outcome in a subject, deciding whether to discharge or continue treating a subject (e.g., treatment on an inpatient basis), or to initiate or terminate treatment, selecting a subject for participation in a clinical study, and selecting a therapeutic treatment for a subject that include determining a level of ST2 in a biological sample from the subject and determining a level of galectin-3 in a biological sample from the subject. Kits are also provided that contain an antibody that specifically binds to ST2, an antibody that specifically binds to galectin-3, and instructions for using the kit to evaluate the risk of an adverse clinical outcome in a subject, to decide whether to discharge or continue treating a subject (e.g., treatment on an inpatient basis) or to initiate or terminate treatment, to select a subject for participation in a clinical study, and/or to select treatment for a subject.

    摘要: The invention relates to the use of enzymes, nanorods, and nanoelectronic devices to detect cysteine level in a patient sample and relates to the use of the detected cysteine level to predict cancer recurrence in the patient and to prescribe and/or administer an appropriate therapy to a subject. The invention is directed to systems and methods of detecting cysteine level in a sample from a subject, wherein the systems or methods can further comprise measuring at least one additional parameter, such as PSA level, Gleason score and clinical stage. The invention is directed to systems and methods of predicting the probability of a recurrence of a cancer in a subject, wherein the systems or methods can further comprise measuring at least one additional parameter, such as PSA level, Gleason score and clinical stage. The invention further comprises prescribing and/or administering an appropriate therapy to a subject based on the predicted probability of recurrence.
