About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

bioAffinity Technologies Announces Publication of Results of Clinical Trial in Peer-Reviewed Journal Respiratory Research

Noninvasive Test Developed Using Machine Learning Detects Early-Stage Lung Cancer with High Sensitivity and Specificity

bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIAF; BIAFW) today announced publication of “Detection of early-stage lung cancer in sputum using automated flow cytometry and machine learning” detailing results of the Company’s clinical trial for its non-invasive diagnostic CyPath® Lung in Respiratory Research, one of the leading peer-reviewed open access journals in the field of respiratory medicine.

CyPath® Lung showed 92% sensitivity and 87% specificity in high-risk patients who had nodules smaller than 20 millimeters or no nodules in the lung, with an area under the ROC curve of 94%. Overall, the test resulted in specificity of 88% and sensitivity of 82%, similar to far more invasive procedures currently used to diagnose lung cancer. More than half of those in the cancer cohort had early Stage I or II lung cancer. CyPath® Lung detected multiple forms of cancer including adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and small cell lung cancer.

“The fact that CyPath® Lung can accurately predict lung cancer at an early stage in patients with small nodules is particularly important. Findings of lesions between six and 20 millimeters as a result of lung cancer screening can lead to unnecessary invasive procedures or a ‘watchful waiting’ period for patients,” said Vivienne Rebel, MD, PhD, bioAffinity Chief Medical and Science Officer and Executive Vice President. “Our test is intended for use with patients who display these indeterminant nodules to increase the accuracy of lung cancer screening and provide certainty for patients and their physicians.”

“CyPath® Lung uses an automated flow-based approach combined with machine learning that can be put into routine lab use without requiring expert evaluation of samples or being subject to operator bias,” said Madeleine Lemieux, PhD, who is first author and led development of the automated analysis used in CyPath® Lung. “The entire sample is rapidly analyzed which ensures maximal sensitivity. The automated, numerical analysis captures complex interactions between lung cancer and the micro-environment to reliably predict the presence of lung cancer that would not be possible for even expert individuals to do from visual flow data.”

Before working with bioAffinity Technologies, Dr. Lemieux was a computational biologist at the Dana Farber Institute and Harvard Medical School. She has contributed to more than 40 publications leveraging data from high-throughput platforms. Dr. Lemieux and Dr. Rebel began their successful collaboration during their doctoral studies.

CyPath® Lung uses flow cytometry, a method able to interrogate individual cells in a fraction of a second, and automated analysis to identify parameters in sputum that are indicative of cancer. Unlike genomic or other molecular markers used in liquid biopsies, bioAffinity’s CyPath® technology does not collect genetic material for evaluation. Instead, CyPath® Lung analyzes the lung micro-environment and identifies whole cell populations that indicate cancer is present in the lung.

About bioAffinity Technologies, Inc.

bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIAF; BIAFW) addresses the need for noninvasive detection of early-stage cancer and diseases of the lung, and targeted cancer treatment. The Company’s first product, CyPath® Lung, is a noninvasive test that has shown high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of early-stage lung cancer. CyPath® Lung is marketed as a Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) by Precision Pathology Services. OncoSelect Therapeutics, LLC, a subsidiary of bioAffinity Technologies, is advancing its discoveries shown in vitro to kill cancer cells without harm to normal cells. Research and optimization of the Company’s platform technologies are conducted in its laboratories at The University of Texas at San Antonio.
