The assessment of platelet function by thromboelastometry as a point‐of‐care test to guide Intercept‐treated platelet support in hemato‐oncological patients and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients

Transfusion, Volume 60, Issue 7, Page 1391-1399, July 2020., 2020
BACKGROUND Pathogen inactivation (PI) techniques for platelet concentrates (PCs) are one of the latest innovations to improve blood safety and reduce the risk of transfusion‐transmitted infections (TTIs). An impaired function and in vivo recovery of platelets as well as an increased PC demand are concerns regarding these techniques.

Comparison between manufacturing sites shows differential adhesion, activation, and GPIbα expression of cryopreserved platelets

Transfusion, Volume 58, Issue 11, Page 2645-2656, November 2018., 2018
BACKGROUND Transfusion of cryopreserved platelets (cryoplatelets) is not common but may replace standard liquid‐preserved platelets (PLTs) in specific circumstances. To better understand cryoplatelet function, frozen concentrates from different manufacturing sites were compared. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Cryoplatelets from Denver, Colorado (DEN); Sydney,

Is Neutrophil‐to‐Lymphocyte Ratio a Predictor of Coronary Artery Disease in Western Indians?

International Journal of Inflammation, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Introduction. The current study was designed to evaluate the association of neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with coronary artery disease (CAD) presence. We also aimed to propose a suitable cut‐off of NLR for diagnosis of CAD in Western Indians. Methods.

Magnitude of Anemia and Associated Factors among Pediatric HIV/AIDS Patients Attending Zewditu Memorial Hospital ART Clinic, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

Anemia, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
Background. Anemia is one of the most commonly observed hematological abnormalities and an independent prognostic marker of HIV disease. The aim of this study was to determine the magnitude of anemia and associated factors among pediatric HIV/AIDS patients attending Zewditu Memorial Hospital (ZMH) ART Clinic in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Methods.

Continuous agitation induces aggregate formation in cold‐stored platelets during extended storage in platelet additive solution

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Reduced metabolic activity of cold‐stored platelets (CSPs) has led to the assumption that agitation is not required during cold storage. However, guidelines from the Food and Drug Administration state that agitation is ‘optional’ and there is a degree of international variability described in the literature.

High Avidity dsDNA Autoantibodies in Brazilian Women with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Correlation with Active Disease and Renal Dysfunction

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We investigated in Brazilian women with SLE the prevalence and levels of high avidity (HA) dsDNA antibodies and tested their correlation with lupus activity and biomarkers of renal disease. We also compared these correlations to those observed with total dsDNA antibodies and antibodies against nucleosome (ANuA).

Nfatc2 deficiency leads to enhanced proliferation in a lymphodepleted environment of homeostatic expansion, but does not provide improved survival fitness in a competitive lymphoreplete environment.

, 2014
CD4+CD25− Tconvs were prepared as described from WT and from Nfatc2 KO mice. Sorted cells (100,000) were adoptively transferred into the tail vein of two B6.SCID (top) or two B6.CD45.1 (bottom) mice.

Quality, Stability, and Safety Data of Packed Red Cells and Plasma Processed by Gravity Separation Using a New Fully Integrated Hollow‐Fibre Filter Device

Advances in Hematology, Volume 2009, Issue 1, 2009., 2009
Background. We developed a completely closed system based on gravity separation without centrifugation steps for separation of whole blood. With this new system we compared quality and stability of the processed blood components (PRC and plasma) with respect to classical preparation.
