Association between preoperative anemia and postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery: a retrospective observational study [PDF]
Background The association between preoperative anemia and postoperative delirium (POD) is unclear. We sought to evaluate the effect of preoperative anemia on the risk of POD in elderly patients after non-cardiac surgery.

Rice (Oryza) hemoglobins [PDF]
Hemoglobins (Hbs) corresponding to non-symbiotic (nsHb) and truncated (tHb) Hbs have been identified in rice (Oryza). This review discusses the major findings from the current studies on rice Hbs. At the molecular level, a family of thenshbgenes, consisting ofhb1,hb2,hb3,hb4andhb5, and a single copy of thethbgene exist inOryza sativavar.

Bone Marrow Failure as an Underrecognized Feature of KAT6A Syndrome
ABSTRACT KAT6A syndrome (Arboleda–Tham syndrome) is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in KAT6A, a histone acetyltransferase essential for chromatin remodeling and hematopoietic stem cell function. While neurodevelopmental features are well established, hematologic manifestations are underrecognized.

Transition of hemoglobin between two tertiary conformations: The transition constant differs significantly for the major and minor hemoglobins of the Japanese quail (Cortunix cortunix japonica) [PDF]
We demonstrate that 5,5′-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) – DTNB – reacts with only CysF9[93]β and CysB5[23]β among the multiple sulfhydryl groups of the major and minor hemoglobins of the Japanese quail (Cortunix cortunix japonica).

A 1H NMR comparative study of human adult and fetal hemoglobins [PDF]
The affinities of the individual subunits in human adult and fetal hemoglobins to azide ion have been determined from the combined analysis of NMR and optical titration data. Structural and functional non-equivalence of the constituent subunits, i.e.

Preoperative Cytopenia in Patients Affected by High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: Just a Matter of Platelets?
ABSTRACT Background and Aims In patients affected by high‐risk neuroblastoma (HR‐NB), complete macroscopic resection (CMR) is associated with better outcomes. These patients are often cytopenic due to intensive induction regimens. The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of preoperative cytopenia on surgical outcome in patients with HR‐NB ...
