Although the pathogenesis of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) in patients with
systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is not clear, several reports suggest an association with …

… Among patients with chronic hepatitis due to HCV, standard therapy with interferon-α (IFN-α),
3 M units 3 times a week for 6 months, produces a biochemical response in 40–50% and a …

Although lupus cardiomyopathy is thought to be clinically uncommon, we encountered 6
patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) over a 10 year period who had severe left …

Visual thresholds of mice for the detection of small, brief targets were measured with a novel
behavioral methodology in the dark and in the presence of adapting lights spanning ∼8 log …

… Our results show that RGS9-1 -/- mice, like WT mice, have both UV- and M-cones, and
secondary neurons driven by these cones (Figure 3, Figure 4), and support the conclusion that …

… -cones and L-cones, represented by wr4', and 7T, respectively, were shifted vertically as
a unit until wr4' matched the proband's 530-nm threshold, which is the M-cone absolute …

… Dosages for initial study were culled from existing literature and were guided by our
previous experience in studying the cat ERG during intraocular drug injections (Naarendorp & …

… The M-cone pigment belongs to an opsin gene family which, in mammals, yields all pigments
sensitive in the range of 500– 600 nm. The other pigment type is drawn from a different …
