    摘要: Provided herein are methods related to identifying an early, asymptomatic (prodromal) stage of a neurodegenerative disease or identifying a subject with a symptomatic neurodegenerative disease, including, for example, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's Disease (AD), or HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND), using functional MRI data from the subject. Methods are also provided for treating a subject identified with the methods taught herein and for modifying or selecting treatment based on the results of fMRI. Methods are also available for staging neurodegenerative disease and for identifying agents useful in treating them.

    摘要: Plasma-assisted reaction chemical ionization (PARCI) provides highly sensitive elemental analysis by producing positively and negatively charged ions. The PARCI apparatuses, kits, and methods described in this application relate to systems that comprise a chemical reaction interface (CRI) containing reactant gas plasma and an ionization chamber that is downstream from the CRI. The ionization chamber facilitates formation of ions from element-specific products of the CRI by an electron source or an ionization gas. In particular, PARCI provides a method for conducting highly sensitive mass spectrometric elemental analysis of analyte compounds with high ionization potential elements; for example, fluorine, chlorine, and bromine.

    摘要: Provided are methods of detecting the presence or amount of a dihydroxyvitamin D metabolite in a sample using mass spectrometry. The methods generally comprise associating an amine with a dihydroxyvitamin D metabolite in a sample, ionizing the adduct, and detecting the amount of the ion to determine the presence or amount of the vitamin D metabolite in the sample.

    摘要: Disclosed are methods of constructing systems for predicting a subject's medical outcome. Also disclosed are methods and systems for predicting a subject's medical outcome. The disclosed methods and systems can include identifying a group of subjects with the same medical condition and classifying this group of subjects into one or more subgroups. The subgroups are classified based on similarity of medical outcome, using classification and regression trees (CART) to generate a classification tree based on the presence of identifying genetic characteristics. Each node in the classification tree describes the presence of a specific genetic marker and each branch in the classification tree describes a genetic profile that predicts a subject's medical outcome.
