Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Background Despite efforts to standardise practice using evidence‐based guidelines, fresh frozen plasma (FFP) remains the blood component most frequently prescribed inappropriately. This study assessed the appropriateness of FFP transfusion in two tertiary teaching hospitals and analysed the characteristics of appropriate and inappropriate ...

Vesiculation as potential novel pathogenic mechanism in autoimmune hemolytic anemia
Transfusion, EarlyView.Abstract Background Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is typically mediated by immunoglobulin G (IgG) or immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies, and more rarely by immunoglobulin A (IgA). The mechanism of red blood cell (RBC) destruction in IgA‐mediated AIHA is not well understood.

A Framework for a Smart Social Blood Donation System Based on Mobile Cloud Computing [PDF]
Health Informatics -- An International Journal (HIIJ), vol. 3, no.
4, pp:1-10,2014, 2014 Blood Donation and Blood Transfusion Services (BTS) are crucial for saving people lives. Recently, worldwide efforts have been undertaken to utilize social media and smartphone applications to make the blood donation process more convenient, offer additional services, and create communities around blood donation centers.

Cognitive TransFuser: Semantics-guided Transformer-based Sensor Fusion for Improved Waypoint Prediction [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Sensor fusion approaches for intelligent self-driving agents remain key to driving scene understanding given visual global contexts acquired from input sensors. Specifically, for the local waypoint prediction task, single-modality networks are still limited by strong dependency on the sensitivity of the input sensor, and thus recent works therefore ...

The Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Volume 65, Issue 6, Page 787-797, June 2025.Abstract How infusion fluids are distributed and eliminated is of importance to how much and how fast they should be administered. This manuscript applies population pharmacokinetic modeling to intravenous infusions of crystalloid fluid, which is a common therapy in hospital care and mandatory during surgery.

Alterations in cell surface area and deformability of individual human red blood cells in stored blood [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The functionality and viability of stored human red blood cells (RBCs) is an important clinical issue in transfusion. To systematically investigate changes in stored whole blood, the hematological properties of individual RBCs were quantified in blood samples stored for various periods with and without a preservation solution called CPDA-1.

Managing discordance between HbA1c and glucose management indicator
Diabetic Medicine, Volume 42, Issue 6, June 2025.Abstract Aims The assessment of haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) continues to play an essential role in diabetes care; however, major advances in new technologies widen the armament available to clinicians to further refine treatment for their patients. Whilst HbA1c remains a critical glycaemic marker, advances in technologies such as Continuous Glucose ...

Red blood cells could protect miRNAs from degradation or loss thanks to Argonaute 2 binding
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 5, Page 810-821, May 2025.The present work investigates the presence and the stability of miRNAs into RBCs, both native and engineered. The observed stability is due to the Ago2 bound resulting in minimal RISC. Indeed, if the miRNA‐Ago2 complex is present, miRNAs are protected from release or degradation and they are biologically active. Thus, RBCs can act as miRNA carriers for

Continuous Magnetophoretic Separation of Blood Cells from Plasma at the Microscale [PDF]
, 2007 We present a method for the direct and continuous separation of red and white blood cells from plasma at the microscale. The method is implemented in a microfluidic system with magnetic functionality. The fluidic structure within the microsystem consists of an inlet and a single microfluidic channel with multiple outlets.

American Journal of Hematology, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 785-796, May 2025.ABSTRACT Pyruvate kinase (PK) is a key enzyme involved in the final step of glycolysis, essential to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Relatively decreased red blood cell (RBC) PK activity (reflected by a lower PK/hexokinase [HK] ratio) and PK thermostability (PK activity after exposure to heat) were recently identified as pathophysiological ...
