Synoviorthesis with erbium-169: a double-blind controlled comparison of erbium-169 with corticosteroid.

Erbium--169 versus triamcinolone hexacetonide in the treatment of rheumatoid finger joints.

Erbium--169 was compared with triamcinolone hexacetonide in the topical treatment of 32 patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. Erbium--169 was injected into 83 and triamcinolone hexacetonide into 54 proximal interphalangeal or metacarpophalangeal joints. Both treatments produced alleviation of joint pain and swelling and improvement of grip strength. At every check-up (1--18 months) the ...

Efficacy of CICACTIVE® versus silver sulfadiazine 0.1% cream on facial wound healing in patients treated with Erbium-YAG resurfacing laser: A single-blind randomized clinical trial

New Erbium(ΙΙΙ) Complexes as Mordants for Natural Dyeing of Silk

The aim of this research is to develop new mordants and a wide range of colors for natural dyeing of silk. In this study, two new erbium(ΙΙΙ) complexes, [Er(AO)(H2O)7](OAc)3 and [Er(AMH)(H2O)6](OAc)3 (AO = acridine orange, AMH = azomethine-H, and OAc = acetate anion), were synthesized, characterized and used as a mordant for the natural dyeing of silk yarns with an aqueous extract of green waln...

بررسی تاثیر تجویز متوترکسات در آسم وابسته به کورتیکواستروئید

Despite the role of oral corticosteroids in management of sever asthma, use of these drugs needs careful awareness of its many side effects. There are controversies about the role of methotrexate in lowering the need for corticosteroides in these patients. In this study an attempt has been made to determine methotrexate effects in corticosteroid dependent asthma. Six patients were entered in a ...

Observation of Raman Gain in Reduced Length of Bismuth Erbium Doped Fiber

Raman amplification of a 49 cm Bismuth oxide (Bi2O3) as a nonlinear gainmedium based erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) is reported in new and compactdesign in near infrared spectral regions. The bismuth glass host provides theopportunity to be doped heavily with erbium ions to allow a compact optical gain fiberamplifier design by using reduced fiber length and the 1480...
