Thrombo‐inflammatory biomarkers and D‐dimer in a biracial cohort study

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2021
Background Higher D‐dimer is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and venous thromboembolism. In the general population, D‐dimer and other thrombo‐inflammatory biomarkers are higher among Black individuals, who also have higher risk of these ...

VIDAS D-dimer: fast quantitative ELISA for measuring D-dimer in plasma [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 1996
Abstract VIDAS D-dimer (bioMérieux) is a new quantitative ELISA for D-dimer determination designed for the VIDAS automated system. The test contains single-dose, ready-to-use reagents and is completed within 35 min. Quantitative results are obtained from a calibration curve stored in the software of the system and expressed as fibrinogen

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
