Methods and Compositions in Diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
The present disclosure provides methods and compositions that find use in facilitating a diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) in a subject. The methods and compositions involve measurement of at least one of proteins: IL-16, IL-7, VEGF, CXCL9, CX3CL1, CCL24, CCL19, and CCL11 in a body fluid sample of a subject suspected of having CFS/ME. Levels of one or more of the aforementioned proteins can be used to facilitate a diagnosis of a CFS/ME and/or confirm a diagnosis of CFS/ME. The methods and compositions of the present disclosure also find use in screening subjects for clinical trials and facilitating treatment decisions for a subject.
Biomarkers and methods for detection of seizures and epilepsy
Epileptic seizures are difficult to diagnose and are often difficult to distinguish from several conditions with similar presentations, and therefore, diagnosis of seizures is often a long, expensive, and unreliable process. This invention provides biomarkers for identifying seizures and epilepsy, assays for measuring and assessing biomarker concentration, predictive models based on biomarkers and computational systems for detecting, assessing and diagnosing phasic and tonic changes associated with seizures and epilepsy in all clinical and healthcare settings. Diagnostic and treatment methods, systems, kits, and predictive models provided herein, provide quantitative and/or qualitative assessment in order to allow patients to proceed immediately to diagnostic and/or treatment protocols, and assess therapeutic treatment effectiveness.
BIOMARKERS FOR ASSESSING EXPLANT ORGAN VIABILITY
Aspects of the present invention relate to the assessment of explant organ viability prior to transplantation. Particularly, although not exclusively, aspects of the present invention relate to biomarkers which can be used to inform a decision as to whether an organ is suitable for transplantation into a recipient. In certain embodiments, the organ is undergoing hypothermic perfusion following retrieval from a donor.

Methods and Compositions for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Renal Injury and Renal Failure
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for monitoring, diagnosis, prognosis, and determination of treatment regimens in subjects suffering from or suspected of having a renal injury. In particular, the invention relates to using assays that detect one or more of Angiopoietin-related protein 6, Complement C5, Fibroblast growth factor 21, Fibroblast growth factor 23, Pro-interleukin-16, CXC motif chemokine 9, Hepatocyte growth factor-like protein, and/or Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 1 IB as diagnostic and prognostic biomarker assays in renal injuries.
