Abstract

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) present an escalating global health concern, precipitating increased hospitalizations and antibiotic utilization, thereby fostering the emergence of antimicrobial resistance. Current diagnostic modalities exhibit protracted timelines and substantial financial burdens, necessitating specialized infrastructures. Addressing these impediments mandates the development of a precise diagnostic paradigm to expedite identification and augment antibiotic stewardship. The application of biosensors, recognized for their transformative efficacy, emerges as a promising resolution. Recent strides in biosensor technologies have introduced pioneering methodologies, yielding pertinent biosensors and integrated systems with significant implications for point-of-care applications. This review delves into historical perspectives, furnishing a comprehensive delineation of advancements in UTI diagnostics, disease etiology, and biomarkers, underscoring the potential merits of these innovations for optimizing patient care.

期刊介绍： The Official Journal of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC) Clinica Chimica Acta is a high-quality journal which publishes original Research Communications in the field of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, defined as the diagnostic application of chemistry, biochemistry, immunochemistry, biochemical aspects of hematology, toxicology, and molecular biology to the study of human disease in body fluids and cells. The objective of the journal is to publish novel information leading to a better understanding of biological mechanisms of human diseases, their prevention, diagnosis, and patient management. Reports of an applied clinical character are also welcome. Papers concerned with normal metabolic processes or with constituents of normal cells or body fluids, such as reports of experimental or clinical studies in animals, are only considered when they are clearly and directly relevant to human disease. Evaluation of commercial products have a low priority for publication, unless they are novel or represent a technological breakthrough. Studies dealing with effects of drugs and natural products and studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not within the journal''s scope. Development and evaluation of novel analytical methodologies where applicable to diagnostic clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, including point-of-care testing, and topics on laboratory management and informatics will also be considered. Studies focused on emerging diagnostic technologies and (big) data analysis procedures including digitalization, mobile Health, and artificial Intelligence applied to Laboratory Medicine are also of interest.
