Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter species are increasingly recognized as major nosocomial
pathogens, especially in patients with critical illnesses or in intensive care. The ability of …

Objective Smoking is associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in individuals with the HLA–DRB1
shared epitope (SE). SE alleles have been shown to be predominantly associated with …

Electrical impedance biosensors combined with microfluidic devices can be used to analyze
fundamental biological processes for high-throughput analysis at the single-cell scale. …

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a complex polygenic autoimmune disease, is associated
with increased complement activation. Variants of genes encoding complement regulator …

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic heterogeneous autoimmune disorder
characterized by the loss of tolerance to self-antigens and dysregulated interferon responses. …

Objective A highly polygenic aetiology and high degree of allele-sharing between ancestries
