Article Abstract
The outbreak of COVID-19 has drawn great attention around the world. SARS-CoV-2 is a highly infectious virus with occult transmission by many mutations and a long incubation period. In particular, the emergence of asymptomatic infections has made the epidemic even more severe. Therefore, early diagnosis and timely management of suspected cases are essential measures to control the spread of the virus. Developing simple, portable, and accurate diagnostic techniques for SARS-CoV-2 is the key to epidemic prevention. The advantages of point-of-care testing technology make it play an increasingly important role in viral detection and screening. This review summarizes the point-of-care testing platforms developed by nucleic acid detection, immunological detection, and nanomaterial-based biosensors detection. Furthermore, this paper provides a prospect for designing future highly accurate, cheap, and convenient SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic technology.

Colloidal gold technology has revolutionized viral diagnostics through its rapid, cost-effective, and user-friendly applications, particularly in point-of-care testing (POCT). This review synthesizes recent advancements, focusing on its role in detecting respiratory viruses, hepatitis viruses, and emerging pathogens. The technology leverages the unique optical and physicochemical properties of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), including localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and high surface-to-volume ratios, to achieve rapid antigen-antibody recognition with visual readouts within 15 min.

Local pH variations play a pivotal role in numerous critical biological processes. However, achieving the tunability and selectivity of pH detection remains a challenge. Here, we present a DNA-based strategy that enables programmable and selective pH responses, which is termed shadow-strand hybridization-actuated displacement engineering (SHADE).

Mycoplasma pneumonia, a primary aetiological agent of atypical pneumonia, necessitates the implementation of rapid point-of-care diagnostics. Lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) hold promise for point-of-care testing (POCT), yet their sensitivity levels are frequently constrained by probe affinity and matrix interference. We introduce an orientational labelling strategy that employs magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) functionalized with staphylococcal protein A (SPA) to simultaneously enhance antibody orientation and facilitate magnetic enrichment.

Aims: Monogenic diabetes (MGD), such as Maturity-Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY), is under-recognised and under-diagnosed. Accurate diagnosis of MGD requires genetic testing and has important treatment implications. Integrating MGD testing within diabetes clinics can increase testing uptake and MGD diagnosis.

Background: Unsupervised cognitive assessments are becoming commonly used in studies of aging and neurodegenerative diseases. As assessments are completed in everyday environments and without a proctor, there are concerns about how common distractions may impact performance and whether these distractions may differentially impact those experiencing the earliest symptoms of dementia.
Objective: We examined the impact of self-reported interruptions, testing location, and social context during testing on remote cognitive assessments in older adults.
