The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has demonstrated a clear need for high-throughput, multiplexed and sensitive assays detecting severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) other viruses their emerging variants. Here, we present cost-effective virus variant detection platform, called microfluidic Combinatorial Arrayed Reactions Multiplexed Evaluation of Nucleic acids (mCARMEN), which combines CRISPR-based diagnostics microfluidics with streamlined workflow clinical use. We...
Abstract The COVID-19 pandemic has demonstrated a clear need for high-throughput, multiplexed, and sensitive assays detecting SARS-CoV-2 other respiratory viruses as well their emerging variants. Here, we present microfluidic CARMEN (mCARMEN), cost-effective virus variant detection platform that combines CRISPR-based diagnostics microfluidics with streamlined workflow clinical use. We developed the mCARMEN panel (RVP) its diagnostic-grade performance on 533 patient specimens in an academic...
Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is a rare and slowly progressive skeletal muscle disease that can cause hand dysfunction, which major source of disability. Tendon transfers have been reliably used to improve function in other neuromuscular settings. Given sIBM patients often present with flexion impairments mostly functioning extensors, we investigated the potential opportunity for tendon transfer surgery dysfunction patients.We conducted scoping review studies transfers, extracted...
Objective To examine the problem of large-scale violent conflict and unique preventive role that global health community can play. Methods We conducted a comprehensive literature review extrapolated insights from practice-based research consultation with leaders grassroot organisations confronting emergent ongoing conflict. Results The field has thoroughly investigated physical mental consequences conflict, yet there is dire need for action. Conclusions Global scholars practitioners are...
This paper describes the first record of cosmopolitan moth Anatrachyntis badia on native Florida cycad Zamia integrifolia, and discusses its possible pollination benefit for this threatened plant. new is interesting due to highly toxic nature these endangered plants as well their strict reliance insect reproduction. It suggests that associations between species members Cycadales may be more widespread than currently known.
