Plasma Elastase Screening in Hematological Disease Reveals Its Potential as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Hematological Malignancies

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 795-806, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neutrophil‐extracellular traps are net‐like material released by triggered neutrophils and composed of decondensed chromatin linked to nuclear proteins. Elastase, one of the fourth most represented neutrophil‐specific serine proteases stored in azurophil granules of naïve neutrophils, exerts various actions, including degradation ...

Trends in Mortality After the Roll‐Out of Directly Acting Antivirals for Hepatitis C in England Using Linked Surveillance Data

Journal of Viral Hepatitis, Volume 33, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Directly acting antivirals (DAAs) revolutionised hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatment, offering higher cure rates. We aimed to quantify life expectancy (LE) differences between treated and untreated individuals diagnosed with HCV and assess the contributions of age and causes of death to these differences.

HTLV-I/II and blood donors: determinants associated with seropositivity in a low risk population

Revista de Saúde Pública, 2003
OBJECTIVE: Blood donors in Brazil have been routinely screened for HTLV-I/II since 1993. A study was performed to estimate the prevalence of HTLV-I/II infection in a low risk population and to better understand determinants associated with seropositivity.
