Investigation on prediction formulae for calculating erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Dear Editor: The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is commonly determined in laboratory blood testing and is often elevated in patients with underlying systemic disorders. In 1983, Miller et al.1 clarified the upper limits of ESR and, since then, these parameters have been widely applied in clinical practice. In a study of the upper limits of ESR based on 26 836 healthy men and 1076 nonpregn...
متن کاملErythrocyte sedimentation rate.
In their article entitled: “The decrease in erythrocyte sedimentation rate related to general anesthesia”, Clin Hemorheol Microcirc 35 (2006) 459–462, Caglayan and co-workers have investigated the effects of general anesthetic agents on erythrocyte properties, reflected in changes in the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). In their introduction the authors referred to the one-hour ESR method ...
متن کاملC-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate: Continuing role for erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Background: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) tests are often done to detect or monitor patients with suspected inflammatory disorders. The objective of the study was to ascertain if the manual ESR test added value to the information available from automated CRP results alone. Methods: In this retrospective, observational study at a safety-net hospital, the ESR a...
متن کاملErythrocyte Sedimentation Rate in Cholera
The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) has proved of the greatest use in the estimation of the activity or quiescence of chronic inflammatory disease. The mechanism of increase in the sedimentation rate is obscure, but experience has shown that the rate and amount of sedimentation is small when the destructive process is slight, and is markedly increased when the condition is active. Cholera ...
متن کاملAberration of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate by Zinc Nanoparticles
Dear Editor, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a useful basic clinical pathology laboratory investigation. It can be helpful in diagnosis and follow-up of several diseases. At present, a new automated method with proven reliability is available for ESR test (1). Here, the authors report on observation on a laboratory experiment to test the effect of zinc nanoparticles on ESR results. The...
