A Novel Plasma Heme Assay Reveals Disease Severity in Beta‐Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anemia results from imbalanced hemoglobin or red blood cell production and clearance. Hemolytic anemia, caused by premature red blood cell removal, can be intravascular (in blood) or extravascular (erythrophagocytosis). Hemolysis is common in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and Beta‐Thalassemia anemia (β‐thalassemia), the most prevalent inherited ...

Management of Iron Overload in Infants and Toddlers With Diamond–Blackfan Anemia Syndrome: A French–Italian Study

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan Anemia Syndrome (DBAS) is a rare congenital anemia often requiring chronic red blood cell transfusions from infancy. Without appropriate chelation, iron overload develops early and may be severe; however, no data are available on chelation in patients under 3 years of age.

Biologic and Targeted Synthetic Disease‐Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs Do Not Arrest Bone Loss in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Long‐Term Multicenter Observational Study

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoporosis causes fractures that further increase the disease burden of rheumatoid arthritis (RA); however, osteoporosis treatment rates remain low. Although several studies have reported that biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs (b/tsDMARDs) can prevent or improve osteoporosis in RA, our large‐scale, real ...

Throat and rectal swabs may have an important role in MRSA screening of critically ill patients.

, 2008
OBJECTIVE: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major problem in intensive care units (ICU). International guidelines recommend screening patients for MRSA on admission, although consensus on sites required for optimum detection has ...

Dependence of endothelial cell growth on substrate-bound fibronectin [PDF]

, 1992
A better understanding of the mechanism of adhesion, spreading and proliferation of human endothelial cells (HEC) on polymeric surfaces may lead to the development of vascular prostheses which allow the formation of an endothelial lining on the luminal ...

Hypoxic storage of red blood cells improves metabolism and post-transfusion recovery

Transfusion, 2020
Blood transfusion is a lifesaving intervention for millions of recipients worldwide every year. Storing blood makes this possible but also promotes a series of alterations to the metabolism of the stored erythrocyte.

Scalable desolvation synthesis, storage stability, and comprehensive biophysical characterization of human hemoglobin nanoparticles as a potential hemoglobin‐based oxygen carrier

Biotechnology Progress, EarlyView.
This work describes the development of human hemoglobin nanoparticles using an anti‐solvent precipitation synthesis method as a potential next generation hemoglobin‐based oxygen carrier. The hemoglobin nanoparticles are uniform in size and shape, hemocompatible, stable at various storage conditions, and demonstrate a scalable synthesis technique ...
