Does Technetium-99m Diethylenetriaminepentaacetate Clearance Predict the Clinical Course of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis?

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2004
Clearance of inhaled technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetate (99mTc-DTPA) is a potential indicator of disease activity and progression in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

Screening Maize Cultivars Enables Concurrent Safe Crop Production and Phytoremediation of Cd‐Contaminated Agricultural Soil: A Field Experiment

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Conventional management of heavy metal contaminated soil faces a dual challenge. Safe utilization maintains agricultural production without removing pollutants, whereas phytoremediation cleans the soil but cannot guarantee the planted crop safety.

Effect of Lime, Humic Acid and Moisture Regime on the Availability of Zinc in Alfisol

The Scientific World Journal, 2007
Lime and humic acid application can play an important role in the availability of zinc in paddy soils. We conducted laboratory incubation experiments on a rice growing soil (Alfisol) to determine the effect of lime, humic acid and different moisture ...

Soil Humic Substances and Root Exudates: Key Factors Modulating Cadmium Mobility in Paddy Soils Under Organic Fertilization

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) contamination in paddy fields poses a high potential risk of environmental exposure. Organic fertilizer application can promote the efflux of rice root exudates, increase soil organic matter, and induce changes in Cd activity in rice fields.

Brain Clearance of Contrast Agent in Intravenous DCE‐MRI Is Measurable and Cannot Be Explained by Clearance Across the BBB Alone

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To determine the feasibility of measuring brain clearance of gadolinium contrast agent using standard intravenous DCE‐MRI acquisitions and evaluate the contribution of blood–brain barrier (BBB) and non‐BBB clearance routes. Methods Uptake and extended Tofts models were fit to DCE‐MRI data from people with Parkinson's disease, post ...

Using Manganese‐Enhanced DCE‐MRI to Assess Blood‐Cerebrospinal Fluid Barrier Transport

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose We developed a dynamic, heavily T2‐weighted (hT2w) FLAIR protocol to resolve acute Mn2+ transport kinetics, as a proxy for Ca2+, across the choroid plexus (ChP)—cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) interface, in vivo. By quantifying intercompartmental Mn2+ dynamics, and comparing these with Gd‐DOTA, we sought to characterize blood‐CSF‐barrier ...

Effect of EDTA and DTPA on Cadmium Removal from Contaminated Soil with Water Hyacinth

Applied Environmental Research, 2014
The effects of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and diethylene triaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) on cadmium (Cd) uptake by water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) in Cd-contaminated soil was studied.
