The Optimal Cutoff Value of Glycated Hemoglobin for Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2015
With standardization of measurement of glycated hemoglobin (A1C), the International Expert Committee Report in 2009 and the American Diabetes Association in 2010 recommended incorporating A1C ≥6.5% into the previous diagnostic criteria using fasting ...

Pitfalls in estimation of glycosylated hemoglobin: A rare hemoglobin variant—Hb Hope

open access: yesJournal of Diabetology, 2021
Hemoglobin (Hb) Hope is a rare Hb variant which is clinically silent but causes spuriously high glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). We report a case of a 45-year-old gentleman, planned for elective total hip replacement, who presented with very high HbA1c with ...

False hemoglobin A1c value as a result of compound heterozygotes of hemoglobin E and hemoglobin New York

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, 2023
The presence of hemoglobin (Hb) variants might interfere with some glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements. There have been a few reports of compound Hb variants affecting HbA1c testing.

Psychosocial Outcomes in Patients With Endocrine Tumor Syndromes: A Systematic Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The combination of disease manifestations, the familial burden, and varying penetrance of endocrine tumor syndromes (ETSs) is unique. This review aimed to portray and summarize available data on psychosocial outcomes in patients with ETSs and explore gaps and opportunities for future research and care.

Prolonged Corrected QT Interval as an Early Electrocardiographic Marker of Cyclophosphamide‐Induced Cardiotoxicity in Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Patients

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cyclophosphamide (CY) is associated with potentially fatal cardiotoxicity, yet no electrocardiographic indices have been established for early detection of CY‐induced cardiomyopathy. This study aimed to determine whether corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation can predict early onset of CY‐related cardiac dysfunction in pediatric ...

Redox Potential (E0′) of the β-Chain 93Cys of HbS Measured with the Equilibrium Technique in a Heterozygous Sickle Cell Carrier Subject

open access: yesMolecules
The hitherto unknown thiol-disulfide redox potential (E0′) of the β93Cys residue in the HbS (β6Glu→Val) variant of human hemoglobin was calculated by MALDI-ToF mass spectrometry, which analyzes blood from a heterozygous carrier.

Predicting Chronicity in Children and Adolescents With Newly Diagnosed Immune Thrombocytopenia at the Timepoint of Diagnosis Using Machine Learning‐Based Approaches

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...
