The sickling pressure index predicts hemoglobin S target achievement during chronic red cell exchange in sickle cell disease

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Chronic automated red cell exchange (RCE) reduces hemoglobin S (HbS) in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), but procedural success varies across patients in ways standard exchange parameters do not explain. We introduce the Sickling Pressure Index (SPI), derived from each patient's daily rate of HbS rise (ROR) and daily rate of

Passive acquisition of hepatitis B virus antibodies after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Newly positive hepatitis B virus (HBV) serologic results after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) may reflect passive antibody transfer from blood‐derived products rather than HBV infection. We investigated the incidence and temporal patterns of hepatitis B surface antibody (anti‐HBs) and antibody to hepatitis B ...

Infection following therapeutic plasma exchange: A large‐scale descriptive cohort study

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) is a procedure done for a broad variety of indications in which plasma proteins, including immunoglobulins, are removed. Current literature evaluating the risk of infection following TPE is limited to small single center studies, specific care contexts, or single indications.

Prophylactic oral calcium–vitamin D3–magnesium supplementation reduced citrate‐related reactions during peripheral blood stem cell collection in healthy donors: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesTransfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Citrate‐related reactions remain the most common adverse events during peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collection despite routine prophylactic intravenous calcium administration. We evaluated whether prophylactic oral calcium–vitamin D3–magnesium supplementation reduces citrate‐related reactions in healthy PBSC donors.

Therapeutic apheresis in low weight patients: Technical feasibility, tolerance, compliance, and risks

open access: yes, 2004
The use of therapeutic apheresis in very low weight patients is generally thought to have limitations, because of possible severe adverse reactions, potential risk related to the extracorporeal procedure, due to the low weight of the young patients.
