GAUCHER DISEASE

Machine Learning-Driven Biomarker Discovery for Skeletal Complications in Type 1 Gaucher Disease Patients

2024-08-06

This study aims to identify protein biomarkers for the early detection of skeletal complications in patients with Type 1 Gaucher disease using machine learning. The research identified 18 potential biomarkers, emphasizing that some of these can be measured through blood tests. The goal is to develop new tools for clinical decision support systems using machine learning and systems biology techniques.

Development of a kit for urine collection on filter paper as an alternative for Pompe disease screening and monitoring by LC-HRMS

2023-08-17

This study investigates a newly developed filter paper based-urine collection kit to facilitate specimen shipment, and liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) analysis to determine Glc4 and creatinine in dried urine on filter paper.

XLSD

Pilot study of newborn screening for six lysosomal diseases in Brazil

2023-07-13

This study indicates that the use of enzyme assay as the first-tier test gives an acceptably low number of positive results that requires second/third tier testing.
