The utility of ESR, CRP and platelets in the diagnosis of GCA

BMC Rheumatology, 2019
BackgroundTo compare the utility of ESR, CRP and platelets for the diagnosis of GCA.MethodA clinical diagnosis of GCA was determined by case-note review of 270 individuals (68% female, mean age 72 years) referred to a central pathology service for a ...

Electron localization in self-assembled Si/Ge(111) quantum dots

, 2015
Electron localization in the Si/Ge heterosystem with Si quantum dots (QDs) was studied by transport and electron spin resonance (ESR) measurements. For Si QD structures grown on Ge(111) substrates, the ESR signal with g-factor $g=2.0022\pm0.0001$ and ESR

DAS28-CRP and DAS28-ESR cut-offs for high disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis are not interchangeable

RMD Open, 2017
Background In most patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Disease Activity Score 28-joint count C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) is lower than DAS28 erythrocyte sedimentation rate (DAS28-ESR), suggesting that use of the DAS28-ESR cut-off to assess high ...

Pharmacological ascorbate and ionizing radiation (IR) increase labile iron in pancreatic cancer

Redox Biology, 2014
Labile iron, i.e. iron that is weakly bound and is relatively unrestricted in its redox activity, has been implicated in both the pathogenesis as well as treatment of cancer.

Spin dynamics of FeGa$_{3-x}$Ge$_x$ studied by Electron Spin Resonance

, 2017
The intermetallic semiconductor FeGa$_{3}$ acquires itinerant ferromagnetism upon electron doping by a partial replacement of Ga with Ge. We studied the electron spin resonance (ESR) of high-quality single crystals of FeGa$_{3-x}$Ge$_x$ for $x$ from 0 up

Synthesis of a spin-labeled phospholipid for studying membrane dynamics in intact mammalian cells.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
We report here the synthesis of a spin-labeled phospholipid, 1-palmitoyl-2-(4-doxylpentanoyl)glycerophosphocholine. The synthetic route for this probe involves two major steps: 1) the synthesis of 4-doxylpentanoic acid from ethyl levulinate and 2-amino-2-
