Liquid Biopsy: Novel Progressions and Comparisons

Thu, 3 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Liquid biopsy technology has evolved into a promising, minimally invasive clinical tool for cancer diagnosis and oncology research. Liquid biopsy is a broad term referring to the testing of bodily fluids: spinal fluid, sweat, urine, and most commonly blood as it is materially dense; it is an analysis technique that detects various biomarkers, including common biomarkers such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and exosomes. There is particular interest in how effective early cancer diagnosis with liquid biopsies are, and its accuracy in early diagnosis prior to other prominent cancer testing/screenings. After studying a bibliometric review, we identified hot spot topics to focus on and wrote this non-systematic review article regarding new details about common biomarkers (ctDNA, exosomes, and CTC), novel technology, and recent tissue vs. liquid biopsy comparisons (non-small cell lung cancer and glioblastoma). More specifically, our study focuses...

Area of Ignorance in Stellar Physics: Stellar Mass Black Hole Distribution; Lowest Initial Progenitor Mass Limit for Black Hole Evolution

Thu, 3 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The creation and evolution of black holes have been the subject of ongoing debate and investigation due to their elusive nature, specifically in the mass distribution of stellar mass black holes. Using data and observations of changes in the remnant mass of stars, a mass distribution function for black hole formation was created. Coupled with an analysis of heavy element production, there is discussion of the mass minimum needed by a single-star stellar system to form a black hole. It can be concluded at the end of this paper that stellar progenitor systems of 20 or more solar masses with helium cores experience a fallback that propels the compact object past the maximum mass of a neutron star. This instigates its collapse into a black hole. According to current models, it can also be shown that progenitors surpassing 40M give rise to black holes without a preceding supernova explosion.
