Although gallium-67-citrate (67Ga) scanning and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are useful in the assessment of disease activity in cardiac sarcoidosis, a patient with cardiac sarcoidosis in whom SPECT imaging with 67Ga failed to predict the deterioration in the clinical course is
Gallium is a group IIIa transition metal that lowers serum calcium by an unknown mechanism and has been utilized in the treatment of cancer-associated hypercalcemia. The purpose of this study was to histomorphometrically investigate the ultrastructural effects of gallium nitrate on osteoclasts and
Osteoporosis is characterized by the progressive loss of bone mass and the micro‑architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and an increased risk of fracture. Gallium has demonstrated efficacy in the treatment of several diverse disorders that are characterized by
Thirty two patients with persisting pulmonary sarcoidosis fulfilling defined criteria for treatment were managed according to a standard clinical protocol. In this an attempt was made to achieve and maintain maximal radiographic and physiological improvement with individually titrated doses of
Nanophotonics based on high refractive index dielectrics relies on appreciable contrast between the indices of designed nanostructures and their immediate surrounding, which can be achieved by the growth of thin films on low-index substrates. Here we propose the use of high index amorphous gallium
Gallium arsenide is used primarily to make light- emitting diodes, lasers, laser windows, and photodetectors and in the photoelectronic transmission of data through optical fibers. Gallium arsenide was nominated for study because of its widespread use in the microelectronics industry, the potential
Glucocorticoids (GC) are potent anti-inflammatory agents and widely used for the treatment of many immune-mediated and inflammatory diseases, whereas GC-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) is the most common cause of secondary osteoporosis and significantly increases the patients' morbidity and mortality.
We present an optoelectronic switch for functional plasmonic circuits based on active control of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) at degenerate PN+-junction interfaces. Self-consistent multi-physics simulations of the electromagnetic, thermal and IV characteristics of the device have been
A 62-year-old woman had progressive dysarthria for 2 months and was suspected of having amyotrophic lateral sclerosis because of the presentation of bilateral tongue atrophy and fasciculation. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed enlargement of the left hypoglossal nerve, and whole-body
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to assess the clinical performance of a direct placement gallium alloy sealed with an established dentine adhesive system. In addition, microanalysis of a few gallium restorations that failed in clinical service was performed. Clinical factors such as pulpal
We obtained results of lung immune complexes (LIC), circulating immune complexes (CIC), 48-hour gallium lung scans (scans), bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and pulmonary function tests in 20 patients with idiopathic interstitial pneumonitis-fibrosis. Sixteen patients had predominantly interstitial (13
For the evaluation of the residual image suppression, the amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide thin film transistor was manufactured with electric field shield metal on silicon oxide multi-buffer layer, without the need for a silicon crystallization process through the excimer laser process, and is
Roentgenograms and gallium-67 scans and gallium-67 counts of BAL fluid samples, together with differential cell counts, have proved to be useful in assessing activity and lung involvement in sarcoidosis. In active pulmonary sarcoidosis gallium-67 scans are usually positive. Quantitation of
A 17-year-old girl with a history of Hodgkin disease showed increased gallium accumulation in the region of the right hip and reduced uptake in the muscles of the right lower extremity. Increased gallium accumulation in the right hip was attributed to avascular necrosis and the reduced gallium
The acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a growing problem in Australia: 438 new cases were added in 1988, resulting in the cumulative total of 1562 patients up to November 1989. The cumulative death rate stands at 54%, the majority of deaths being due to secondary infections and
