#HLA_Typing May Associated with Disease Tracking: #Autoimmune_Diseases: Certain HLA types are linked to autoimmune diseases. For example, HLA-B*27 is associated with #ankylosing_spondylitis. Infectious Diseases: Some HLA types may confer susceptibility or resistance to infectious diseases, such as #HIV progression linked to HLA-B*57:01. Another example, HLA-DRB1*15:01 is known to be associated with an increased risk of #multiple_sclerosis.

The Karius Test simultaneously detects > 1000 different pathogen, including mpox virus (MPXV). This article demonstrates the potential of The Karius Test to detect, quantify, and, for acute infections with high sequencing coverage, subtype MPXV using a single noninvasive test. The Karius Test may augment existing MPXV testing in vulnerable patient populations or in patients with atypical symptoms or unrecognized mpox. Strain type information may supplement disease surveillance and facilitate tracking emerging pathogens. https://lnkd.in/gYBzX-WZ #diagnosis #metagenomics #ngs #mcfDNA #cfDNA #liquidbiopsy #immunocompromised #infection #infections #infectiousdisease #infectiousdiseases #healthcareinnovation #microbiology #noninvasive #rapiddiagnosis #rapidtest #sequencing #outbreaksurveillance #mpox #HIV #immunocompromised #MPXV

The increasing prevalence of viral infections is a significant driver shaping the landscape of the Global #ViralClearance Market. Viral infections pose a persistent threat to public health worldwide, with viruses such as hepatitis B and C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and emerging pathogens like Zika and Ebola causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Global Viral Clearance Market was valued at USD 768.44 million in 2023 and is anticipated to project robust growth in the forecast period with a CAGR of 8.46% through 2029.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling Facials or Vampire Facials at a Spa in New Mexico were linked to transmission of HIV. This is the first of its kind because there's no previous documentation of HIV transmission through cosmetic injection services via contaminated blood. . However, transmission of HIV through unsterile injection practices such as in people who use/inject drugs is a known risk factor. . Investigation by the CDC and New Mexico Department of Health from 2018-2023 revealed that HIV transmission in three women were associated with these cosmetic injection procedures, which raises a question of whether to consider cosmetic injection services as a route of HIV transmission. . It is important that users and providers of these services ensure that there are adequate infection control practices at spa facilities, not only by using sterile equipment, but by also ensuring no contamination and transfer of blood and other body fluids. #vampirefacials #plateletrichplasma #spa #plateletrichplasmatherapy #plateletrichplasmatreatment #microneedling #microneedlingtherapy #microneedlingtreatment #microneedlingwithprp #microneedlingfacial #microneedlingbeforeandafter #skincare #skincareroutine #skincaretips #newmexico #hiv 📷: @thecut

Sterilisation area, aka “steri” - the place where we clean, pack, label and sterilise all instruments used for dental treatments 🫧🦷 Why is it so important to follow rigorous protocols of instruments’ processing and sterilising? ✔️ to prevent the transmission of bacteria, viruses and fungi between patients ✔️ to avoid introducing pathogens into the body during procedures ✔️ to reduce the risk of post-op infections after invasive procedures ✔️ to prevent cross-contamination between patients ✔️ to prevent the spread of infectious diseases (such as hepatitis, Covid and HIV) At Vivaldi Smile Artisans we put the health and safety of our patients and staff always in first place, following gold standard protocols of sterilisation ❌🦠 #sterilize #infectioncontrol #steri #clean #safe #virus #covid #hepatitis #hiv #transmission

Before patients can receive treatment, they need the right diagnosis. Makes sense, right? ✔️ What doesn’t make sense is the lack of access people face around the world, including the widely inaccessible GeneXpert suite of tests for numerous diseases, including #tuberculosis – the world’s deadliest infectious disease – as well as #HIV, #hepatitis, #COVID19 and #mpox. Canada can help. How? Read our article to find out 👇 https://lnkd.in/gh-GXzfp

ARTICLE: Patients "were warned in a letter this week that they should be tested for the #HIV virus, as well as #Hepatitis B and C because of possible exposure at the dentist's office." AND "After investigating his Deer Park Central Clinic in Spokane County, home to about 550,000 people, health officials had become concerned that 'improper cleaning' could have spread infections." MY COMMENT: However, when: (i) the cleaning and high-level #disinfection (or #sterilization) of reusable critical and semi-critical medical equipment are not performed properly, and/or (ii) single-use items are reused on other patients, other pathogen types too, including #mycobacteria (eg, M. abscessus, #NTM) and multidrug-resistant organisms (eg, #CRE) -- in addition to blood-borne #viruses -- can be transmitted and infect patients. #dentistry #adverseevents #patientsafety #publichealth #infectionprevention

According to the World Health Organization, viral #hepatitis B and C constitute an epidemic. Around 325 million people globally are affected – 10 times more than the global #HIV epidemic. In #Africa, chronic viral hepatitis affects over 70 million people. Hepatitis B infection is preventable and treatable, and hepatitis C virus infection (HCV) is now curable. Yet, despite the availability of diagnostic tools and effective treatment, over 90% of people living with hepatitis B and C in Africa lack much needed care. At #RocheDiagnostics, we are partnering with governments and other relevant stakeholders to promote early testing, which can lead to lifesaving treatment. With adequate resources and strong political commitment, this disease can be eliminated by #2030. #GetTested today. #WorldHepatitisDay
