Gamification: is the application of game-design elements and game principles in non-game contexts. Gamification commonly employs game design elements to improve user engagement, organizational productivity, flow, learning, crowdsourcing, employee recruitment and evaluation, ease of use, usefulness of systems, physical exercise, traffic violations, voter apathy, and more.

Thyroid function tests play a central role to assess thyroid function and are valuable companions for clinicians. The evolution of the tests is permanent and clinical laboratories are key pla...
Breast cancer is the most frequently occurring form of cancer in women. While 5-year survival rates for localized disease approach 99%, cases of advanced breast cancer have a much poorer pro...
Central to the diagnosis and management of patients with diabetes mellitus is the measurement of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Major studies have defined the therapeutic targets of HbA1c in order...
Random drug testing is used as a preventive and detection tool for drug or alcohol use, and medication compliance in the monitoring of regulatory and treatment compliance monitoring. Urine sc...
Applying machine learning methods to structured, expert-curated content from scientific literature is a powerful way to discover latent knowledge. Building on the QIAGEN Knowledge Base, we us...
70,237 drug overdose deaths occurred in the United States in 2017 and opioids were involved in 47,600 of those deaths (67.8%).1 Ohio had the second highest rate of opioid overdose deaths in t...
Burn patients are at risk for organ dysfunction secondary to “burn shock” and sepsis. The initial 24 hours following major burn injury presents with significant hypotension due to...

Despite FDA-approved vaccines and antivirals, seasonal and pandemic influenza remains a serious threat associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. The present modalities and vaccine...
Respiratory viral infections remain a leading cause of medical visits and can contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality. Influenza, together with pneumonia, is the leading infectiou...
Influenza viruses are transmitted by membrane-bound virus particles, or virions. Unlike some viruses, which produce near-identical virions from a well-defined set of viral components, influen...
The efficacy of current influenza antiviral drugs is compromised by emerging drug resistance. To address this unmet medical need, we have made progress in developing novel influenza antiviral...
To prepare for the 2019 flu season it is important to get immunized. In 2019 a tetravalent (four-virus) vaccine is available in a number of forms including an egg-free formulation that is for...
Since the establishment of reverse genetics techniques to manipulate the influenza virus genome, it has been possible to study viral molecular signatures responsible for virulence, and the ge...
Multiple factors can affect and impact infection dynamics and virulence produced by influenza virus (IV) infections. Susceptibility factors and host responses can also have major effects in d...
Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has historically been very effective for exacting difficult chiral separations, with an unmatched power in terms of enabling highly efficient enantios...
Chromatography is the first choice in separation technique for a wide selection of applications, across many fields, ranging from simple to highly complex extracts. The main rationale for it...
Metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) refractory to secondary hormonal treatments such as enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate are the most lethal of prostate cancers. In thi...
Tumor mutational burden (TMB) is an emerging biomarker that correlates with response to immunotherapeutic agents, such as checkpoint inhibitors. Recent studies indicate that a high mutation l...
Accumulation of structural variations (SVs) across the genome is a known trigger factor for oncogenesis. Structural mutations have been clearly implicated in a number of cancers, most notably...
