  • Detections from samples from Laboratory Berlin

  • Serum neurofilament light chain and multimodal neuroprognostication after cardiac arrest – A retrospective cohort study

    23.06.25 | Employees of Labor Berlin, together with clinicians from Charité, were able to show that the neurofilament light chain protein (NFL) in serum is a meaningful biomarker for the early neurological prognosis after a cardiac arrest. NFL values > 2000 pg/ml indicate an unfavourable neurological outcome with high specificity, while low values largely rule out severe brain damage. The addition of the biomarker NFL to established procedures such as EEG, NSE or CT significantly improves the overall predictive power.

    Funding Cluster of Excellence ImmunoPreCept

    10.06.25 | Preventing diseases instead of treating them
    Chronic diseases such as cancer or immune-mediated inflammation are on the rise worldwide – and therapies often take effect too late. This is precisely where ImmunoPreCept comes in: The new Cluster of Excellence headed by Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin is researching how the immune system maintains health – and what throws it out of balance. The aim is to identify causes before symptoms arise.
    With Prof. Dr. Andreas Diefenbach, Director of our Department of Microbiology & Hygiene, as one of the spokespersons, ImmunoPreCept brings together cutting-edge research from immunology, systems biology and medicine – for the preventive medicine of tomorrow.
    Start: January 2026, funded as part of the Excellence Strategy of the federal and state governments.

  • Comparative evaluation of multimarker algorithms for early-stage HCC detection in multicenter prospective studies

    02.05.25 | As part of an international study involving over 1,000 patients for the early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), employees at Labor Berlin were able to show that the new GAAD algorithm – based on gender, age, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-gamma-carboxyprothrombin (DCP or PIVKA II) – has the same high diagnostic accuracy as the established GALAD algorithm, which also includes the biomarker AFP-L3. Both algorithms reliably differentiate between early HCC and chronic liver disease (CLD), whereby the GAAD algorithm does not require the additional marker AFP-L3. GAAD thus represents a simplified, cheaper and yet effective method for HCC detection.
