Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing a respiratory tract infection in a subject, comprising determining in a sample from said subject the level of High-Mobility-Group-Protein B1 (HMGB1), and/or determining in a sample from said subject the level of a histone protein, and/or determining in a sample from said subject the level of Insulin-like growth factor binding protein, acid labile subunit (IGFALS), wherein the subject is diagnosed with a bacterial respiratory tract infection when the level of IGFALS is below a predetermined threshold level and/or the level of the histone protein is above a predetermined threshold value, and/or wherein the subject is diagnosed with a respiratory tract infection when the level of HMGB1 is above a predetermined threshold level.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment guidance, treatment monitoring, risk assessment and/or risk stratification of patients with abnormal platelet levels comprising providing a sample of said patient, determining a level of proadrenomedullin (proADM) or fragment(s) thereof in said sample, wherein said level of proADM or fragment(s) thereof correlates with the abnormal platelet levels in said patient. In embodiments of the invention, a level of proADM or fragment(s) thereof of high severity indicates low platelet levels in the subject and subsequent initiating or modifying a treatment of the patient to improve said condition. In some embodiments of the invention the method comprises determining a level of one or more additional markers in a sample isolated from the patient, such as the level of platelets, the level of PCT or fragment(s) thereof, one or more markers of thrombocytopenia and/or one or more markers of an inflammatory response.

Abstract: The present invention is in the field of clinical diagnostics. Particularly, the present invention relates to the assessment of severity of a subject being suspected of an infection or having an infection, who may have physiological signs or increased risk factors for infection, in particular from an infectious disease by determination of the levels of Procalcitonin (hereinafter: PCT) (SEQ ID No: 1 and/or proadrenomedullin (hereinafter: proADM)) (SEQ ID No: 3) or a partial peptide or fragment thereof, in particular midregional proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) (SEQ ID No: 2), in a sample of a patient and the invention is related to a workflow hereto. Moreover, the invention refers to the assessment related to an infection like ruling out/in a patient and stratification, risk assessment, in particular to avoid rehospitalisation and hospital and post-discharge mortality.

Abstract: The present invention relates to diagnosis, prognosis, risk assessment, and/or risk stratification of an adverse event, particularly mortality, of a subject. The invention relates to a method that comprises determining a level of at least one histone, particularly histone H2B, H4, H2A and/or H3, in a sample of said subject, and wherein said level of at least one histone is indicative of said adverse event of said subject; and/or determining a level of proadrenomedullin (proADM) in a sample of said subject, and wherein said level of proADM is indicative of said adverse event of said subject. The invention further relates to kits for carrying out the methods of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for determining the extracellular volume status of a subject. The method comprises determining in a sample obtained from a subject the level of the marker proadrenomedullin (proADM) or a fragment thereof, preferably MR-proADM. Further, based on the level of proADM or a fragment thereof, the fluid balance is determined and wherein said fluid balance determines the extracellular volume status. Further, based on the level of proADM or a fragment thereof, the salt balance is determined and wherein said salt balance determines the extracellular volume status and salt retention. Further, the invention relates to a method for in vitro diagnosis, risk stratification, therapy control and/or operative control of a disorder or medical condition in a subject, wherein said extracellular volume status and salt retention of said subject is determined by the herein provided method. Further, the invention relates to a kit and/or a diagnostic device for carrying out the herein provided method.

Abstract: Method of obtaining and/or verifying a binder to prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1) or fragments thereof of at least 6 amino acids in length, including Copeptin (SEQ ID NO. 2), comprising at least one of the steps of: a) generating the binder using a developer comprising an amino acid sequence of at least 6 amino acids in length contained in an amino acid sequence corresponding to the C-terminal part but lacking amino acid 164 of prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1); b) determining whether the binder is capable of binding to an amino acid sequence of at least 4 amino acids in length contained in an amino acid sequence corresponding to the C-terminal part but lacking amino acid 164 of prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1); c) selecting and optionally isolating the binder from a plurality of binders which is capable of binding to an amino acid sequence contained in an amino acid sequence corresponding to the C-terminal part but lacking amino acid 164 of prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1); d) carrying out binding assays with the binder in order to determine the ex vivo stability of prepro-Vasopressin or fragments thereof of at least 6 amino acids in length, including Copeptin, in a biological sample; e) carrying out binding assays with the binder and another binder for comparison purposes in order to determine the concentration of prepro-Vasopressin or fragments thereof of at least 6 amino acids in length, including Copeptin, in a biological sample; wherein the C-terminal part consists of amino acids 138 to 164 of prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1), in order to obtain a binder or a mixture of binders capable of binding to an epitope contained in an amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acids 138 to 163 but lacking amino acid 164 of prepro-Vasopressin (SEQ ID NO. 1).
