  2. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythrocyte_sedimentation_rate

    The widely used [21] rule calculating normal maximum ESR values in adults (98% confidence limit) is given by a formula devised in 1983 from a study of ≈1000 individuals over the age of 20: [22] The normal values of ESR in men is age (in years) divided by 2; for women, the normal value is age (in years) plus 10, divided by 2.

  3. Senile osteoporosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senile_osteoporosis

    Research over the years has shown that senile osteoporosis is the product of a skeleton in an advanced stage of life and can be caused by a deficiency caused by calcium. However, physicians are also coming to the conclusion that multiple mechanisms in the development stages of the disease interact together resulting in an osteoporotic bone ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymyalgia_rheumatica

    Usually, PMR only affects adults over the age of 50. [21] The average age of a person who has PMR is about 70 years old. [2] [27] Women are twice as likely to get PMR as men. [27] White people of western and Northern European descent are more likely to get this disease. [2]

  5. Electron spin resonance dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_spin_resonance_dating

    Electron spin resonance dating is being used in fields like radiation chemistry, biochemistry, and as well as geology, archaeology, and anthropology. [4] ESR dating is used instead of radiocarbon dating or radiometric dating because ESR dating can be applied on materials different from other methods, as well as covering different age ranges. [1]

  6. Electron paramagnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_paramagnetic...

    Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) or electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy is a method for studying materials that have unpaired electrons. The basic concepts of EPR are analogous to those of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), but the spins excited are those of the electrons instead of the atomic nuclei. EPR spectroscopy is particularly ...

  7. Inversion recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_recovery

    Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) [2] is an inversion-recovery pulse sequence used to nullify the signal from fluids. For example, it can be used in brain imaging to suppress cerebrospinal fluid so as to bring out periventricular hyperintense lesions, such as multiple sclerosis plaques.

  8. Granulomatosis with polyangiitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granulomatosis_with...

    The number of new cases of GPA each year is estimated to be 2.1–14.4 new cases per million people in Europe. [3] GPA is rare in Japanese and African-American populations but occurs more often in people of Northern European descent. [7] GPA is estimated to affect 3 cases per 100,000 people in the United States and equally affects men and women ...

  9. Electro-slag remelting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro-slag_remelting

    Rendering of electro-slag remelting apparatus and cross-sections. Electroslag remelting (ESR), also known as electro-flux remelting, is a process of remelting and refining steel and other alloys for mission-critical applications in aircraft, thermal power stations, nuclear power plants, military technology and others.
