Noninvasive Detection of Bladder Cancer by Shallow-Depth Genome-Wide Bisulfite Sequencing of Urinary Cell-Free DNA for Methylation and Copy Number Profiling [Molecular Diagnostics and Genetics]
CONCLUSIONS: Bladder cancer can be detected noninvasively in urinary cfDNA by methylomic and copy number analysis without previous knowledge or assumptions of specific aberrations. Such analysis could be used as a liquid biopsy to aid diagnosis and for potential longitudinal monitoring of tumor load. Further understanding of the differential size and fragmentation of cfDNA could improve the detection of bladder cancer. (Source: Clinical Chemistry)

Noncoding RNAs Serve as Diagnosis and Prognosis Biomarkers for Hepatocellular Carcinoma [Cancer Diagnostics]
CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that various ncRNA species, not only miRNAs, identified in the small RNA sequencing of plasma are also able to serve as noninvasive biomarkers. Particularly, we identified a domain of srpRNA RN7SL1 with reliable clinical performance for HCC diagnosis and prognosis. (Source: Clinical Chemistry)

Temporal Changes in Cardiac Troponin I Are Associated with Risk of Cardiovascular Events in the General Population: The Nord-Trondelag Health Study [Proteomics and Protein Markers]
CONCLUSIONS: Both relative and absolute increases in hs-cTnI are independently associated with cardiovascular risk. For refinement of risk prediction models, the most recent measurement of hs-cTnI should be preferred in clinical practice. (Source: Clinical Chemistry)

Optimization and Comparison of Information-Dependent Acquisition (IDA) to Sequential Window Acquisition of All Theoretical Fragment Ion Spectra (SWATH) for High-Resolution Mass Spectrometry in Clinical Toxicology [Drug Monitoring and Toxicology]
CONCLUSIONS: This vSWATH method for clinical toxicology demonstrated equivalent analytical sensitivity and specificity for untargeted drug screening and identification in urine samples. vSWATH provided the additional benefit of collecting all tandem mass spectrometry spectra in a sample, which could be useful in discovering low-abundance compounds not discovered by IDA.

Iron Metabolism, Hepcidin, and Mortality (the Ludwigshafen Risk and Cardiovascular Health Study) [Hematology]
CONCLUSIONS: In stable patients undergoing angiography, serum iron, transferrin saturation, sTfR, and ferritin had J-shaped associations and hemoglobin only a marginal association with cardiovascular and total mortality. Hepcidin was continuously and inversely related to mortality. (Source: Clinical Chemistry)
