Erythrocyte transfusion limits the role of elevated red cell distribution width on predicting cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the more serious complications after cardiac surgery. Elevated red cell distribution width (RDW) was reported as a predictor for cardiac surgery associated acute kidney injury (CSAKI).

Storage-induced changes in erythrocyte membrane proteins promote recognition by autoantibodies. [PDF]
Physiological erythrocyte removal is associated with a selective increase in expression of neoantigens on erythrocytes and their vesicles, and subsequent autologous antibody binding and phagocytosis.

Erythrocyte Transfusion as an Independent Predictor of Survival but Not Immune-Related Toxicity in Nivolumab-Treated Metastatic NSCLC: A Multicenter Cohort [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Transfusion-related immunomodulation (TRIM) is a recognized immunosuppressive phenomenon whose interaction with immune checkpoint blockade remains poorly defined. We evaluated the impact of erythrocyte suspension transfusion on

ASSESSMENT OF FREQUENCY OF ALLOIMMUNIZATION AND ERYTHROCYTE AUTOIMMUNIZATION IN TRANSFUSION DEPENDENT THALASSEMIA PATIENTS [PDF]
Life-long red blood transfusion remains the main treatment for severe thalassemia. The development of hemolytic alloantibodies and erythrocyte autoantibodies complicated transfusion therapy in thalassemia patients.

Mental Status Changes in Severe Babesiosis
Babesiosis is a tick-borne disease caused by an intraerythrocyte protozoon. We present a unique case of a patient who was infected with babesiosis and subsequently developed severely altered mental status, which dramatically improved after erythrocyte ...
