A Painless Skin Patch Simplifies Diagnostic Tests

A Painless Skin Patch Simplifies Diagnostic Tests

Many diagnostic tests require blood, but NIBIB-funded researchers have developed a skin patch with tiny needles that painlessly collect interstitial fluid (ISF) for testing. Diagnostic tests can measure trace amounts of essential proteins or hormones in the blood called biomarkers. High or low levels of biomarkers are specific indicators for a disease. In the new test, a unique paper on the…

Biology, Geometry Unite to Thwart Common Cardiovascular Diseases

Biology, Geometry Unite to Thwart Common Cardiovascular Diseases

When cardiovascular disease causes blocked blood vessels, tissues die because the oxygen carried by blood cells cannot reach the tissue. Tissue starved of oxygen is called ischemic. Surgery can remove blockages in large vessels in the heart or legs but is not possible in small vessels; they are just too small to manipulate. To address this problem, researchersfunded by the National Institute of…
