Kinesin dimer/David S. Goodsell, Scripps Research Institute ❋ Unknown (2008)

Two intertwined chains with globular heads on one end form a Kinesin dimer. ❋ Unknown (2008)

SDS-PAGE, PknJ forms stable dimer, which is also shown by variants PknJ-KD-K43A and ❋ Gunjan Arora Et Al. (2010)

In this study, Lidke and her colleagues showed that that protein pairing - known as dimer formation - is, in fact, not necessary for ERK to move into the nucleus after all. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The activity of HIF-1 dimer, which is composed of α and β subunits, is modulated by the availability of the extremely labile oxygen-sensitive HIF-1α protein subunit. ❋ Daniela Trisciuoglio Et Al. (2010)

The opposite ends of the dimer drag the cargo along that they are attached to. ❋ Unknown (2008)

In the first two instances, one then proceeds to obtain a highly sensitive D-dimer test e.g.,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

Previously I wrote about some evidence that an elevated d-dimer may be worthwhile used as indicator of the need for continuing anticoagulation. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

I think a better reason not to rely on the D-dimer a high probability case is , is concern that a potentially fatal condition may be missed because of one erroneous negative biological lab test considering all the many ways lab tests can get screwed up. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

To my way of thinking, if the D-dimer remains elevated it may be too soon to stop the coumadin. posted by james gaulte @ 4:30 AM ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

Interestingly, when one reviews the quoted reference in the Archives of Internal Medicine for that advice it turns out the study involved only 13 instances of high probability PE cases all of whom had a elevated d-dimer. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

This is said to be the case because-according to the NEJM review- clinical data have indicated that in patients with a high pretest likelihood of PE the negative predictive value of the D-dimer is too low to be safely determinative. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

If you believe PE or DVT is a reasonable diagnosis to pursue,testing should be done even if the Wells rule suggests low risk or unlikely and the d-dimer is negative.show me a blood test that can't be wrong. posted by james gaulte @ 3:44 AM ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

However, if there is a high pretest probability of PE then one should not order the D-dimer but proceed directly to a multidetector chest CT . ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

The importance of not allowing the D-dimer's negativity to exclude PE is emphasized in this 2008 article from Holland in the journal CHEST.The authors reported data that indicated that almost 10% (9.3%) of patients with a likely diagnosis (they used a version of the Wells criteria that had only two categories, "likely" or "unlikely") and a negative D-dimer had evidence of thrombotic disease in the subsequent 3 months. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

There are some data indicating that about 5% of such patients have false negative D-dimer tests. ❋ James Gaulte (2009)

I have written about the D-dimer and Pulmonary embolism prediction rules before in a discussion about an earlier larger study from Holland which is generally considered to validate the rule of thumb that says "low likelihood Wells score plus negative high sensitivity D-dimer test equals no PE." ❋ James Gaulte (2009)
