BACKGROUND: Low serum albumin is common and associated with protein-energy wasting, inflammation, and poor outcomes in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. We hypothesized that in-center (in dialysis clinic) provision of high-protein oral nutrition supplements (ONS) tailored for MHD patients combined...

J Phys Chem B. 2013 Dec 27;117(51):16542-57. doi: 10.1021/jp408338q. Epub 2013 Dec 11.

We discuss excluded volume effects on the background signal of double electron-electron resonance (DEER) experiments. Assuming spherically symmetric pervaded volumes, an analytical expression of the background signal is derived based on the shell-factorization approach. The effects of crowding and...
