Disease relevance of ERC2

  • Classification of antiarrhythmic actions is reviewed in the context of the results of the Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trials, CAST 1 and 2 [1].
  • The dog sera were from animals diagnosed with blastomycosis from various endemic regions in North America. T-58 and ERC-2 lysate antigens exhibited a high reactivity with the serum from dogs infected with blastomycosis; however, 48089 lysate showed low reactivity with the same sera [2].
 

High impact information on ERC2

  • In order of increasing laser resistance the following results were obtained: injection molded PMMA (1.9/GW/cm2) Silicone (2.63 GW/cm2) Lathe-cut PMMA (4.47 GW/cm2), Lathe-cut PMMA with UV absorber (8.32 GW/cm2), Cast-molded PMMA (12.30 GW/cm2) [3].
  • Psychosocial predictors of mortality in the Cardiac Arrhythmia Suppression Trial-1 (CAST-1) [4].
  • There was no significant change in ouabain-resistant 22Na ERC 2 h after oral glucose [5].
  • Overall, the strength ranking (temperature range average/MPa) was: Cristobalite (10.1)>Beauty Cast (7.8)>Novocast (5.1)>Deguvest California (3.4) [6].
  • CONCLUSION: Cast dowel-space preparation had a negative influence on the sealing ability of the remnant root-canal filling material [7].
 

Biological context of ERC2

  • Soft Cast group had better range of motion and could walk better at 2 weeks, but these differences diminished at 6 weeks [8].
 

Anatomical context of ERC2

  • In this prospective, randomized study, short-term immobilization with semi-rigid (Soft Cast) and rigid (Scotchcast Plus) synthetic cast materials were compared for the functional treatment of acute grade 3 lateral ligament injuries of the ankle [8].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of ERC2

  • When combined with the reduced cost of application, Soft Cast is the material of choice for the initial short-term immobilization for the functional treatment of acute ankle ligament injuries [8].
