On this day, we once again focused on sepsis, aiming to further raise public awareness of sepsis through scientific education and other activities, r...
1. New progress in luminescence: The number of manufacturers is gradually increasing The addition of new brands is bound to accelerate the clinical acceptance of luminescence detection cytokines. Differentiation began to emerge in the items From the perspective of the manufacturers that have been certified so far, the main items cover IL-1β, IL-2, IL-2R, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TN...
Cluster of Differentiation (CD Markers), as small proteins secreted by immune cells, play a key role in maintaining immune system stability and regulating pathological processes. It has a wide range of clinical applications, including auxiliary diagnosis, prognosis assessment, identification of infectious sources, early warning of cytokine storms, and monitoring of tumor immunity. In addition, the...
World Heart Day was created by the World Heart Federation to inform people around the world that cardiovascular disease (CVD), including heart disease and stroke, is the leading cause of death in the world.

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP) are biomarkers of cardiac function, as well as the preferred biomarkers for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of heart failure, disease severity and prognosis assessment, and have been recommended as Level I by several clinical practice guidelines. BNP is mainly degraded in large blood ves...
Chemiluminescence immunoassay technology has long been well-known in the field of in vitro diagnostics! These include, direct chemiluminescence, electrochemiluminescence, enzymatic chemiluminescence, indirect chemiluminescence. So many types of luminescence use luminescent agents that are also very different!1. Acridine ester Direct chemiluminescence Acridine ester (AE) is a tricyclic organic...
Infectious diseases are one of the common diseases in the emergency department, and the systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by infection is the most fundamental pathophysiological change in sepsis.
