Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Hoda A. Hagrass investigates variations in the prevalence of infectious diseases and explores diagnostic challenges within laboratory medicine. Her work includes studies on the temporal variations in SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence across different racial and ethnic groups in Arkansas. Hagrass also examines discrepancies in laboratory measurements, such as those related to lactate levels due to beta-hydroxybutyrate interference and the impact of the Hook Effect on immunoglobulin A measurements. Additionally, she has published research on microRNAs as potential biomarkers for Hepatitis C virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma and the detection of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in serum protein electrophoresis.
