Accuracy of the SD BIOLINE Dengue Duo for rapid point-of-care diagnosis of dengue
(Public Library of Science, 2019-03)
Background Rapid diagnosis tests (RDTs) are easy to carry out, provide fast results, and could potentially guide medical treatment decisions. We investigated the performance of a commercially available RDT, which simultaneously ...
Comparison of four commercial screening assays for the diagnosis of human T-cell Lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2
(Elsevier Science, 2008-02)
Serological assays for human T-cell lymphotropic virus types 1 and 2 (HTLV-1/2) are widely used in routine screening of blood donors. The aim of this study was to compare the performance of four commercial screening assays ...
Trypanosoma cruzi Induces Regulatory B Cell Alterations in Patients With Chronic Chagas Disease
(Frontiers Media, 2021-08)
The clinical evolution of patients with chronic Chagas disease (CCD) is mainly associated with an excessive inflammation and a defective immunomodulatory profile caused by the interaction between T. cruzi and the host. ...
