The prevention of adverse reactions to transfusions in patients with haemoglobinopathies: a proposed algorithm.

open access: yesBlood transfusion = Trasfusione del sangue, 2013
Transfusion therapy remains the main treatment for patients with severe haemoglobinopathies, but can cause adverse reactions which may be classified as immediate or delayed. The use of targeted prevention with drugs and treatments of blood components in selected patients can contribute to reducing the development of some reactions.The aim of our study ...

Age‐Associated Variations in Complete Blood Cell Count Parameters and Derived Indices Among Community‐Dwelling Chinese Older Adults

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This cross‐sectional study analyzed data from 9331 participants aged 24–97 to characterize age‐ and sex‐related physiological trajectories of complete blood cell count (CBC) parameters and derived inflammatory indices. Key findings encompassed age‐related declines in red blood cell and platelet counts, elevations in RDW‐CV indices and monocyte ...

Biomarkers of Endothelial Damage in Acute Graft‐Versus‐Host Disease After Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Methodological Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation remains a potentially curative therapy for many hematological malignancies; however, its success is significantly limited by acute graft‐versus‐host disease (aGVHD), a leading cause of post‐transplant morbidity and mortality in which endothelial dysfunction plays a central role.

Leukoreduction for the prevention of adverse reactions from allogeneic blood transfusion

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015
A blood transfusion is an acute intervention, implemented to solve life and health-threatening conditions on a short-term basis. However, blood transfusions have adverse events, some of them potentially related to immune modulation or to a direct transmission of infectious agents (e.g. cytomegalovirus).

Development and External Validation of a Postoperative Risk Score for Venous Thromboembolism in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a major complication in women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We aimed to develop and externally validate an early postoperative risk score to identify EOC patients at increased risk of VTE after debulking surgery.
