MRI is also important after a diagnosis is made as a means of monitoring subclinical disease activity. While a standardized protocol for...
متن کاملGOAT – A simple LC-MS/MS gradient optimization tool
Modern nano-HPLC systems are capable of extremely precise control of solvent gradients, allowing high-resolution separation of peptides. Most proteomics laboratories use a simple linear analytical gradient for nano-LC-MS/MS experiments, though recent evidence indicates that optimized non-linear gradients result in increased peptide and protein identifications from cell lysates. In concurrent wo...
متن کاملUpdated schizophrenia PORT treatment recommendations.

متن کاملParental transmission of MS in a population-based Canadian cohort.
OBJECTIVE Genetic and environmental factors have important roles in multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility. The precise nature of these factors and mode of inheritance remains unknown. A female predominance is universally found. Recently, offspring of affected fathers were reported to be more likely to have MS than those of affected mothers. This was attributed to the Carter effect, which is se...
