Comparison of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) Between the Alcor iSED ESR Analyzer and the Streck Autoplus ESR Analyzer [PDF]
The Alcor iSED analyzer is a new instrument designed for rapid, automated analysis of ESR using primary collection tubes (lavender-top). We compared results of ESR measurements between the iSED analyzer and the Streck Autoplus analyzer. Among patient samples submitted for routine analysis of ESR over 3 months, a random subset of samples was selected ...

Effects of Aggregation on Blood Sedimentation and Conductivity.
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) test has been used for over a century. The Westergren method is routinely used in a variety of clinics. However, the mechanism of erythrocyte sedimentation remains unclear, and the 60 min required for the test ...

Model of binary biological mixture fractionation in gravity field and in centrifugal-force field [PDF]
The publication describes a simplified model of the process of fractionation of binary biological mixtures in a closed reference system. The description of the model uses a balance of masses and forces forcing microparticle movement in a base fluid ...

Identifying and analyzing the effects of electric fields on erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
Introduction: The influence of electric field on the nature of blood flow and cells is controversial. Erythrocytes sedimentation rate (ESR) examination is a recommended approach to diagnose a few health conditions such as polymyalgia rheumatic and ...

Retractions in Rheumatology: Trends, Causes, and Implications for Research Integrity
Objective We aimed to describe the trends and main reasons for study retraction in rheumatology literature. Methods We reviewed the Retraction Watch database to identify retracted articles in rheumatology. We recorded the main study characteristics, authors’ countries, reasons for retraction, time from publication to retraction, and trends over time ...
