Abstract:
Background: Indigenous Australians have a unique cultural heritage dating back many thousands of years. Unfortunately, there is no validated tool to assess cognition in older indigenous Australians. This study was designed to address this deficiency. The Kimberley Indigenous Cognitive Assessment (KICA) was developed with Indigenous health and aged care organizations, and comprises cognitive, informant and functional sections. The psychometric properties of the cognitive assessment section (KICA-Cog) are described in this paper.Methods: The KICA-Cog was tested in 70 indigenous subjects, of vary

Objectives. The Mini-Cog, a rapid, valid, and reliable screening tool for cognitive impairment, consists of 3-word recall and an executive clock drawing test (CDT).

ABSTRACT Introduction: The Mini-Cog is a simple and short test that identifies cognitive impairment. Its detection helps provide an early dementia diagnosis, rapid access to treatments, and even delay or reversion. Materials and Methods: This multicenter, observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional study included 214 patients. Patients enrolled in this study were community dwellers aged ≥55-year-old, without prior diagnosis of cognitive impairment or dementia, with adequate hearing and vision functions. It was conducted in primary care health centers localized in rural communities of Ecuad

Abstract Background: Diagnoses of congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are based on clinical suspicion and analysis of transferrin (Tf) isoforms. Here we present our experience of CDG screening in children with a suspected metabolic disease by determination of serum percentage of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (%CDT) in tandem with isoelectric focusing (IEF) analysis of Tf and α1-antitrypsin (α1-AT). Methods: We performed approximately 8000 serum %CDT determinations using %CDT turbidimetric immunoassay (TIA). In selected samples, IEF analysis of Tf and α1-AT was carried out on an ag

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Residual disease or rapidity of response to induction therapy is among the most powerful predictors of outcome in pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Various methods to determine response during induction have been in use in clinical investigation. We hypothesize that drug sensitivity at the cellular level predicts rapidity of response to induction therapy in ALL. We recently developed a high resolution flow cytometry based cytotoxicity assay for in vitro cellular drug response profiling for pediatric ALL. This method has a turnaround time of 48 hours and the abi

Abstract:
Introduction: Cytarabine, daunorubicin and etoposide (ADE) are commonly used for remission and intensification of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, development of drug resistance is a major cause of treatment failure. In this study, we performed a comprehensive evaluation of expression levels of genes of pharmacological significance (pharmacokinetic /pharmacodynamic) to ADE and derived a drug response score predictive of treatment outcomes in pediatric AML patients. Methods: This study included 163 cases (median age=8.79 year, range= (0.013-21.1)) with AML enrolled in the multic

Smartphones are an integral cog of the IoT environment and a fundamental bloc of any related security solution, given that IoT mobile applications allow users not only to get information, but also to influence the environment. This paper presents a methodological instrument that can contribute to implementing and evaluating security measures in mobile applications by means of an automated analysis tool. A clear process for linking policy and high-level security guidelines and measures to concrete source code elements is depicted, as well as an automated way of testing a set of mobile applicati

Age-related dementia refers to a state in which someone experiences multiple cognitive function impairment due to degenerative brain disease, and which causes difficulties in their daily life or social life. Dementia is the most common and serious obstacle in later life. Early intervention in the case of patients who are in the mild cognitive impairment (MCI) stage among the high-risk group can maintain and improve their cognitive function.

Pre-existence and persistence of drug resistant leukemia stem cells (LSCs) is considered one of the major causes of relapse. A previous study (Ng et al., 2016) reported a prognostic signature of 17 genes (LSC17 score) differentially expressed in LSC+ compared to LSC- cell fractions that predicted outcome in patients with AML thereby classifying patients into high and low risk groups.

At our institution, we routinely employ Children's Oncology Group (COG) validated B-lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) MFC-MRD analysis for the detection of MRD in pediatric patients after induction therapy for B-ALL. We have extended this COG-validated assay to the adult B-ALL population. This technique relies on the identification of aberrant immunophenotypes expressed by residual bone marrow B-lymphoblast
