The electrodeposition of iron and Zn-Fe alloys on polycrystalline nickel was investigated in the 40.0-60.0 mol % zinc chloride1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid containing iron~II! at 90°C. Iron~II! was electrochemically reduced to iron metal before the reduction of zinc~II! to zinc metal, and anomalous codeposition of Zn-Fe did not occur in this ionic liquid. Underpotential depo...

Diabetes mellitus and cardiomyopathy are common in chronically transfused thalassemia major patients, occurring in the second and third decades of life. We postulated that pancreatic iron deposition would precede cardiac iron loading, representing an environment favorable for extrahepatic iron deposition. To test this hypothesis, we examined pancreatic and cardiac iron in 131 thalassemia major ...

In the coutrse of a prospective, controlled evaluation of the effect of portacaval anastomosis on hepatic lhemosidlerin deposition(l), a large number of iron-stained slicles were evaltuated blindly, semniquantitatively and serially. Those slides in wlhichi excessive deposition of hemosiderin was present microscopically appeared blue in color to gross inspection while those in whiom little or no...

Hereditary haemochromatosis (HH) is a genetic disorder in which abnormal iron handling leads to excessive iron accumulation in systemic tissues. Magnetic resonance imaging studies suggest excess iron deposition in the basal ganglia of patients with HH. The symptoms of neurological complications of HH include cognitive decline, gait difficulties, cerebellar ataxia, and extrapyramidal dysfunction...

Background Patients receiving chronic transfusion develop iron overload in the liver, endocrine glands, and heart. Cardiac T2* has become the standard of care for detecting preclinical cardiac iron deposition and has been validated against tissue iron levels. Recent work suggests that T1 mapping can also be used to detect myocardial iron and may be more sensitive to early cardiac iron depositio...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE MSA-P and IPD have similar clinical presentations that may complicate accurate clinical diagnosis. Different iron-deposition patterns of those 2 diseases have been demonstrated in histopathology. The aim was to demonstrate the different iron-deposition patterns of MSA-P and IPD by using SWI phase images. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixteen patients with IPD, 8 with MSA-P, and...

[1] The Gulf of Aqaba, northern Red Sea, is an ideal natural laboratory for studying the impact of atmospheric dry deposition of iron to the ocean surface. We have measured atmospheric iron deposition weekly for 18 months, and dissolved and total dissolvable iron concentrations in the stratified summer (August) and well-mixed winter (March) water column. Concentrations of dissolved and total di...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate focal iron deposition level in the brain in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease and its correlation with cerebral small vessel disease imaging markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-four patients with first-ever transient ischemic attack (median age: 69 years; 30 males and 44 females) and 77 patients with positive ischemic stroke hi...
