These results suggest a potential role for diffuse optics as a bedside monitoring tool that could aid the development of new strategies for individualized patient care.
This article provides a brief overview of the Nrf2 pathway and considers how monitoring its activity could aid the identification of chemicals and drugs that carry the potential to provoke toxicity in humans.
Use of this quantitative assay in the standard laboratory practice could aid in monitoring the course of cART and facilitate the early detection of drug-resistant escape mutants before the actual failure of the therapy.
Many law enforcement agencies around the world are now quickly stepping up their game to monitor emerging technologies, like 3D-printing, that could aid crimes being committed. .
The recent study by Cristofanilli and colleagues strongly suggests CTCs could aid in the evaluation and monitoring of patients with metastatic breast cancer.
Because insulin glycation is dependent on the degree and duration of hyperglycemia, monitoring of glycemic status in diabetic patients using glycated insulin could aid approaches to the diagnosis, management, and treatment of diabetes (17).
The C3, CFI, and C4BPα proteins may represent a plasma-based diagnostic biomarker panel, which could aid BD diagnosis or be used to monitor BD progression.
Screening for these factors in settings where culture of mycobacterium are not available, could aid the identification of a subgroup of patients who require more intensive monitoring.
Non-invasive Aβ imaging to confirm the presence of AD neuropathology could aid in early differential diagnosis, identify at-risk individuals, help predict or monitor disease progression, and potentially evaluate the response to disease-specific therapy.
Being able to image TAMs could aid in the development of novel macrophage-targeted drugs and could be applied to monitor the kinetics of macrophage infiltration in response to antibody-based immunotherapies engaging innate immune cells, such as therapy with anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibodies [ 16].
