Mashup Score: 1SMD - Lateral flow tests are 95% effective at detecting Covid-19 when used at the onset of symptoms - Queen Mary University of London - 3 year(s) ago
Published on: 14 July 2021 A lateral flow Covid-19 test Lateral flow tests are cheaper and produce a result in just 30 minutes – much faster than the time it takes to receive a PCR test result, which can take 1-3 days. The finding could be pivotal to national strategies looking to tackle the next phase of the pandemic, especially as timely and rapid testing becomes even…

Mashup Score: 0Performance of point-of-care tests for the detection of chlamydia trachomatis infections: A systematic review and meta-analysis - 3 year(s) ago
NAAT-based POCTs for CT have a significantly better performance particularly in sensitivity for diagnosing the infection with CT than the AD-based POCTs. Screening strategy with AD-based POCTs may potentially result in a substantial under-detection of the infections.

Mashup Score: 2Utility of drug provocation tests in the evaluation of quinolone hypersensitivity reactions - 3 year(s) ago
Currently, quinolones are the second most used antibiotic line in human medicine in Europe, after beta-lactams.1 Drug hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) to this group of medication are mostly immediate, and moxifloxacin singles out as a trigger of life-threatening anaphylaxis.2,3

Mashup Score: 3Quantifying the potential value of antigen-detection rapid diagnostic tests for COVID-19: a modelling analysis - 3 year(s) ago
Background Testing plays a critical role in treatment and prevention responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to nucleic acid tests (NATs), antigen-detection rapid diagnostic tests (Ag-RDTs) can be more accessible, but typically have lower sensitivity and specificity. By quantifying these trade-offs, we aimed to inform decisions about when an Ag-RDT would offer greater public health value…

Betalactam (BL) antibiotics are the most common cause of drug-induced hypersensitivity reactions (DHR). We present 2 clinical cases of patients with suspected immediate BL DHR who underwent drug allergy workup according to standardized diagnostic procedures, including skin tests (STs: prick, skin prick test, and intradermal tests [IDTs]) and drug provocation tests (DPTs).1 ST results became…

Mashup Score: 0Cell-Based Functional IgE Assays Are Superior to Conventional Allergy Tests for Shrimp Allergy Diagnosis - 3 year(s) ago
The diagnosis of shellfish allergy currently relies on patient history, skin prick test (SPT), and serum specific IgE (sIgE) quantification. These methods lack sufficient diagnostic accuracy, whereas the gold standard of oral food challenges is risky and burdensome. Markers of reactivity and severity of allergic reactions to shellfish will improve clinical care of these patients.
