Abstract Low socioeconomic position (SEP) may be associated with adverse outcomes in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) inherent to for example, delayed diagnosis or reduced treatment intensity, but firm evidence is limited. In this study, we examined the association between SEP and clinical outcomes.

Structure and thermodynamics of platelet dispersions [PDF]
Various properties of fluids consisting of platelike particles differ from the corresponding ones of fluids consisting of spherical particles because interactions between platelets depend on their mutual orientations. One of the main issues in this topic is to understand how structural properties of such fluids depend on factors such as the shape of ...
