Thrombotic microangiopathy with transiently positive direct Coombs test in an adult with poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis: a case report [PDF]
Background To date, a few case reports have described the association between poststreptococcal acute glomerulonephritis (PSAGN) and hemolytic anemia/thrombocytopenia, both with or without a pathology similar to that of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA ...

Comparative study of immunohematological tests with canine blood samples submitted for a direct antiglobulin (Coombs’) test [PDF]
Background A 2019 ACVIM consensus statement on diagnostics for immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) in dogs made testing recommendations. As data on the performance of immunohematological tests was lacking, we undertook a comparative analysis ...

The Direct Coombs Test in Lead Poisoning [PDF]
Abstract 1. The anemia produced by lead intoxication in humans as well as experimentally induced lead poisoning in dogs results in a positive direct Coombs test. 2. The direct antiglobulin test will become positive within twenty-four hours in cases of severe lead poisoning produced experimentally in dogs. 3.

Anemia with Positive Direct Coombs' Test Induced by Trypan Blue [PDF]
Abstract An anemia with a positive direct and indirect Coombs' test was induced in Wistar strain rats by injection of the dye trypan blue. The anemia was characterized by a shortened red cell survival time, increased osmotic fragility and reticulocytosis. There was an associated leukopenia and thrombocytopenia. The positive Coombs' tests

The Indirect Antiglobulin (Coombs’) Test Is Specific but Less Sensitive Than the Direct Antiglobulin Test for Detecting Anti-Erythrocytic Autoantibodies and Thereby Immune-Mediated Hemolytic Anemia in Dogs [PDF]
The immunodiagnostic assessment of dogs suspected of having immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) is based on persistent autoagglutination of erythrocytes (after three saline washes), marked spherocytosis, and a positive direct antiglobulin (Coombs ...

The direct antiglobulin (Coombs) test in megaloblastic anaemia [PDF]
Folic acid deficiency with the picture of a megaloblastic bone marrow may develop in haemolytic anaemia, and, on the other hand, both vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiency may produce signs of haemolysis. As the correct interpretation of a positive antiglobulin reaction associated with megaloblastic erythropoiesis is particularly important, the effect ...
