ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and the Risk of Steroid‐Induced Osteonecrosis
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

Role of selenium in the pathophysiology of cardiorenal anaemia syndrome
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have multiple bidirectional mechanisms, and anaemia is one of the critical factors that are associated with the progression of the two disorders [referred to as cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS)].

Background Iron deficiency anemia in pregnancy is a significant health concern. Reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent (Ret-He) and immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF) are emerging as early markers, yet their response to different iron therapies in ...

Assessment of medullary response through cellular immaturity parameters in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation [PDF]
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate relative immature platelet fraction (IPF%), absolute immature platelet fraction (A-IPF), and relative immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF%) as biomarkers of bone marrow recovery after hematopoietic stem cell ...

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Erythrocyte enrichment in hematopoietic progenitor cell cultures based on magnetic susceptibility of the hemoglobin. [PDF]
Using novel media formulations, it has been demonstrated that human placenta and umbilical cord blood-derived CD34+ cells can be expanded and differentiated into erythroid cells with high efficiency.

Abstract Objective To compare the dialysis efficiency parameters between new single‐needle dialysis and conventional double‐needle dialysis and to explore the optimal prescription parameters for single‐needle hemodialysis. Methods This study involved a prospective, cross‐over design. Eight patients were randomly divided into two cohorts, which received

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

Abnormal neutrophils and platelets in splenectomised β‐thalassaemia/haemoglobin E (HbE) disease contribute to neutrophil–platelet aggregation, leading to a high risk of thrombus formation. Activated platelets induce neutrophils to generate neutrophil extracellular trap (NETs) via the P‐selectin–P‐selectin glycoprotein ligand‐1 (PSGL1) pathway, which ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The Atellica HEMA 580 is a novel haematology analyser providing eight‐part leukocyte differential and optical platelet (PLT) counting. We compared its analytical and clinical performance with that of the ADVIA 2120i. Methods A total of 796 residual whole blood specimens were analysed.
