Abstract: A semiconductor light-emitting device includes a semiconductor stack including a first semiconductor layer and a second semiconductor layer; a first reflective layer formed on the first semiconductor layer and including a plurality of vias; a plurality of contact structures respectively filled in the vias and electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer; a second reflective layer including metal material formed on the first reflective layer and contacting the contact structures; a plurality of conductive vias surrounded by the semiconductor stack; a connecting layer formed in the conductive vias and electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer; a first pad portion electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer; and a second pad portion electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer, wherein a shortest distance between two of the conductive vias is larger than a shortest distance between the first pad portion and the second pad portion.

Abstract: Described is a method of detecting a protein fragment in a urine sample and a serum sample. The protein fragment is a urine precursor alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein, urine alpha-1 antitrypsin, urine alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, urine osteopontin, or serum osteopontin fragment. The urine sample and the serum sample are obtained from the same individual.

Abstract: Biomarkers for liver diseases and method for using the same are provided. For detecting liver cirrhosis and liver cancer, the biomarkers are selected from any one of the amino acid sequences with SEQ ID NO:1 to SEQ ID NO:24 or derivatives or fragments or variants or the combination thereof or the antibodies against the amino acid sequences. Then the biomarkers are further developed into detection kits, such that by detecting the existence of autoantibodies or autoantigens in screened specimens, liver diseases are detected with higher accuracy and sensitivity.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for detecting liver fibrotic injury, including fibrosis and/or cirrhosis, by assaying biological samples for differential expression of at least one gene encoding a protein chosen from SEQ ID NO: 1-SEQ ID NO: 63 and human orthologs thereof, wherein differential expression of at least one gene suggests the presence of liver fibrosis or cirrhosis. The invention also provides a kit containing nucleic acid probes or antibodies for detecting liver fibrosis and/or cirrhosis by assaying the differential expression of proteins encoded by SEQ ID NO: 1-SEQ ID NO: 63 and human orthologs thereof.
