Macro-CK and CK-BB Contributing to Sham CK-MB Elevation

A 65-year-old man in whom an inferior vena cava filter had been implanted for deep vein thrombosis was admitted to the cardiology department due to appetite loss and lumbago. Laboratory data showed increased total creatinine kinase (CK, 796 U/L, Picture 1, left) and CK-MB (1,213 U/ L), which exceeded the total CK value. Electrophoresis showed, in addition to an increase in CK-BB, a peak that mi...

Chow Groups, Chow Cohomology, and Linear Varieties

We compute the Chow groups and Fulton–MacPherson’s operational Chow cohomology ring for a class of singular rational varieties including toric varieties. The computation is closely related to the weight filtration on the ordinary cohomology of these varieties. We use the computation to answer one of the open problems about operational Chow cohomology: it does not have a natural map to ordinary ...

Chow Quotients and Euler - Chow Series

Given a projective algebraic variety X, let p(X) denote the monoid of eeective algebraic equivalence classes of eeective algebraic cycles on X. The p-th Euler-Chow series of X is an element in the formal monoid-ring Z p(X)] ] deened in terms of Euler characteristics of the Chow varieties Cp;; (X) of X, with 2 p(X). We provide a systematic treatment of such series, and give projective bundle for...
