Analytical evaluation of a fully automated immunoassay for faecal calprotectin in a paediatric setting
Introduction Faecal calprotectin (FC) is a routinely used marker for identifying and monitoring children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This non-invasive test is useful for screening children with gastrointestinal symptoms to avoid unnecessary invasive procedures. In this study, we validated for the first time the performance of a fully automated particle-enhanced turbidimetric immunoas...
متن کاملReference ranges for interrupter resistance technique: the Asthma UK Initiative.
Measuring interrupter resistance (R(int)) is an increasingly popular lung function technique and especially suitable for preschool children because it is simple, quick and requires only passive cooperation. A European Respiratory Society (ERS)/American Thoracic Society (ATS) Task Force recently published empirical recommendations related to procedures, limitations and interpretation of the tech...
متن کاملEchocardiographic reference ranges for sedentary donkeys in the UK.
The aim of this study was to provide two-dimensional (2D) and M-mode echocardiographic reference ranges from a sample of the UK population of donkeys including geriatrics (>30 years), owned by The Donkey Sanctuary, and to assess the influence of gender, weight and age on these variables. A total of 36 donkeys with no clinical or echocardiographic evidence of cardiovascular disease were examined...
متن کاملA new recurrent neural network based predictive model for Faecal Calprotectin analysis: A retrospective study
Faecal Calprotectin (FC) is a surrogate marker for intestinal inflammation, termed Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), but not for cancer. In this retrospective study of 804 patients, an enhanced benchmark predictive model for analyzing FC is developed, based on a novel state-of-the-art Echo State Network (ESN), an advanced dynamic recurrent neural network which implements a biologically plausibl...
متن کاملFaecal calprotectin in term and preterm neonates.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this review was to examine the characteristics of the faecal calprotectin assay in neonates and the evidence for its use as a noninvasive marker of intestinal illnesses during the neonatal period. METHODS Bibliographic searches were performed in the MEDLINE electronic database up to February 2010 looking for the following words (all fields): "infants" or "neonates" and "...
