Reticulocytopenia in Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Blood, 1956
Abstract 1. In a series of 57 cases of autoimmune hemolytic anemia it was found that 25 or 44 per cent had a relative reticulocytopenia at times of hemolytic crisis. The mortality rate in this group was significantly higher than in those who showed a reticulocyte response consistent with the severity of anemia.

Complications of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2022
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AHIA) is the group of acquired autoimmune conditions resulting from the development of autologous antibodies directed against autologous red blood cell antigens resulting in red cell lysis. Beyond the presence, severity, and duration of hemolysis which can lead to symptomatic anemia, additional complications at presentation

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia: A history*

Transfusion Medicine Reviews, 2000
UTOIMMUNE HEMOLYTIC anemia (AIHA) is an acquired immunoIogic disease in which the patient's red blood cells (RBCs) are selectively attacked and destroyed (hemolyzed) by autoantibodies produced by the patient's own immune system. These patients generally display the common symptoms of anemia: weakness, pallor, fatigue, and jaundice.

Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia and Cancer [PDF]

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1965
THE OCCURRENCE of overt hemolytic anemia in malignant diseases other than those involving the reticuloendothelial system is uncommon. Approximately 15 cases of overt hemolytic anemia associated with cancer have been reported in the medical literature.

Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia in Scleroderma

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971
In a case of scleroderma and autoimmune hemolytic anemia, azathioprine treatment resulted in complete remission of the hemolysis despite the persistence of positive direct and indirect antiglobulin test. There were no beneficial results of the therapy on the underlying connective tissue disorder. Complications of azathioprine treatment encountered were

AUTOIMMUNE HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA IN CHILDREN

Pediatric Hematology and Oncology, 2007
The clinical and hematological profile and treatment outcome of children with warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) were assessed using retrospective case record analysis. There were 26 (17 idiopathic; 9 secondary) patients with a median age of 11 years. Pallor (100%), fever (39%), and jaundice (59%) were the main presenting complaints.

Autoimmunization and the Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemias.

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1970
Comparison is inevitable with part 2 of The Haemolytic Anaemias: The Autoimmune Haemolytic Anaemias , 1962, by John Dacie which, as they say in show biz, is a tough act to follow. Dacie brought to his task the long experience of a gifted and methodical hematologist.

Geoepidemiology of autoimmune hemolytic anemia

Autoimmunity Reviews, 2010
Autoantibodies against red blood cell antigens are considered the diagnostic hallmark of AIHA: Direct antiglobulin test (DAT) completed by cytofluorometry and specific diagnostic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) allow for a better understanding of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) triggers. Once B-cell tolerance checkpoints are bypassed, the patient loses

Autoimmunization and the Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemias

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1969
This is an unusual book in both concept and presentation. The first half presents the problem of autoimmune hemolytic anemias in a clinical perspective. Material from the vast literature is interwoven with a very substantial personal clinical experience, more than 200 cases, that the author observed during an eight-year period.

Treatment of Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia

Seminars in Hematology, 2005
The appropriate therapy of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is dependent on the correct diagnosis and classification of this family of hemolytic disorders. Although the majority of cases are warm AIHA, there are several distinct types of cold AIHA and a number of drug-induced etiologies of AIHA, which must be investigated to determine if stopping a ...
