THE SPECIFICITY OF SEROLOGICAL PRECIPITATION [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1946
Precipitative mixing experiments have been conducted with the aid of a turbidimeter and a darkfield microscope. The results of these experiments, correlated with observations of macroscopic features, indicate that serological precipitation is largely governed by a highly specific mechanism except in the terminal period, when the operation of non ...

Validation of a Genetic Risk Score Combined with Clinical Variables for Predicting Pulmonary Fibrosis in early Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a severe extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The study aimed to externally validate a genetic risk score (GRS) and a combined risk score for predicting the risk of RA‐associated PF in an independent cohort of early‐RA patients. Methods This study utilized an inception cohort of 1118 patients

Role of Prednisone and 25(OH) Vitamin D on Bone Mineral Density and Osteoporosis in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective We evaluated the role of 25‐hydroxy vitamin D, prednisone and other risk factors for bone mineral density (BMD) loss and osteoporosis in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods We calculated the association between 25‐hydroxy vitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and other potential risk factors with BMD measures (spine T‐scores) and osteoporosis ...

The Serology of Bacillus polymyxa [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1951
SUMMARY: The spore, somatic and flagellar antigens of thirty-nine strains of Bacillus polymyxa have been investigated. The three antigens were serologically distinct and differed in thermal stability and in the appearance of the floccules after agglutination. The spore antigen was common to all the thirty-nine strains of B.
