People with schizophrenia show decreased prefrontal cortex (PFC) activity during emotional response inhibition, a cognitive process sensitive to hormonal influences. Raloxifene, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, binds estrogen receptor alpha (ESR-α), improves memory, attention and normalizes cortical and hippocampal activity during learning and emotional face recognition in schizophrenia...

ESR conducts annual surveys of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Each year, all hospital and community microbiology laboratories in New Zealand are asked to refer all MRSA isolated during a one-month period to ESR. Laboratories provide epidemiological information with each isolate referred. At ESR, MRSA are typed to identify MRSA strains. The purpose of these annual surveys is...

The results of ESR measurements on a single crystal of the spin-Peierls compound CuGeO3 doped with 4% Zn are reported. We have observed, for the first time, ESR signals in the antiferromagnetic phase below the Néel temperature(TN = 4.2 K). The excitation energies at zero field are 26.4 and 40.6GHz. The frequency versus magnetic field relation of these ESR signals is well explained by the theory...

We have compared the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) with other acute phase proteins (C-reactive protein (CRP), alpha(1) antitrypsin, orosomucoid, and haptoglobin) in 108 patients with polymyalgia rheumatica and/or giant cell arteritis. There was good correlation between CRP and ESR, but the ESR was also found to have the highest correlation with disease activity. The additional measuremen...

We report the detection of electron spin resonance (ESR) in individual dimers stable free radical 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO). ESR is measured by current fluctuations a scanning tunneling microscope (ESR-STM method). The multipeak power spectra, distinct from macroscopic data, are assigned to having exchange and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions presence spin-orbit coupling. ...

Epsilon Serializability (ESR) is a generalization of classic serializability (SR). ESR supports more concurrency and autonomy than SR by allowing a bounded amount of inconsistency in transactions that can tolerate it. ESR has three main advantages over previous \weak consistency" models: (1) ESR is a general framework, applicable to a wide range of application semantics; (2) ESR is upward-compa...

Symons, in the last review of ESR in the AnnualReview of Physical Chemistry (1), has already noted that the vast applications ofESR in the fields of chemistry, physics, and biology render it virtually impossible to attempt anything like a full coverage of the literature. I have, therefore, also adopted the approach of selecting topics that are primarily of interest to me, but have found that sp...
