Acute Kidney Injury, Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura, and the Infection That Binds Them Together: Disseminated Histoplasmosis

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2017
Untreated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can be complicated by opportunistic infections, including disseminated histoplasmosis (DH). Although endemic to portions of the United States and usually benign, DH can rarely act as an opportunistic infection

The Role of Innate Lymphoid Cells in Autoimmune, Allergic and Infectious Diseases: A Systematic Review

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
This systematic review establishes disease‐specific dysregulations of human innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), demonstrating that an ILC1/ILC3 imbalance compromises mucosal barriers in inflammatory bowel disease, while activated ILC2s drive allergic airway inflammation.

Platelet count response to H. pylori treatment in patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura with and without H. pylori infection: a systematic review

open access: yesHaematologica, 2009
Eradication of H. pylori improves thrombocytopenia in some patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura by mechanisms that remain obscure. Platelet count responses may occur independently of H.

Human Herpesvirus 8 Causes a Wide Spectrum of Disease in Liver Transplant Recipients and May be Donor Derived: Case Series and Systematic Review of an Emerging Challenge

open access: yesTransplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
Among 135 cases of post‐liver transplant HHV8 disease (4 from NSW), presentations varied, and mortality was high (44%). Donor screening was rare, and donor‐derived infection was suspected in 33%. Survival improved with mTORi, reduced immunosuppression, chemotherapy, and, for non‐KS disease, donor screening. ABSTRACT Background Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV8)

open access: yesKanem Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018
Introduction: Severe neonatal thrombocytopenia is a hematological emergency that can be due to increased platelet destruction (such as immune-mediated and peripheral platelet consumption) or congenital failure of platelet production.

Functional validation of a modified platelet desialylation test for immune and hereditary thrombocytopenias

open access: yesTransfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Thrombocytopenia arises from heterogeneous inherited and acquired disorders, and identifying the underlying platelet clearance mechanisms remains challenging. Platelet desialylation, characterised by loss of sialic acid and consequent exposure of terminal β‐galactose residues recognised by the Ashwell–Morell receptor, represents an ...

Evans Syndrome Associated with Pregnancy and COVID-19 Infection

open access: yesCase Reports in Obstetrics and Gynecology, 2020
Background. Evans syndrome (ES) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by autoimmune hemolytic anemia along with immune thrombocytopenic purpura. Few case reports of ES in pregnancy have been published, and ES may be difficult to distinguish from ...

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY, INVESTIGATIONS, AND TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH IMMUNE THROMBOCYTOPENIC PURPURA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In otherwise healthy children or adults, immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) has a low platelet count, usually less than 100,000, in the presence of common petechiae, bruises, or bleeding. It is explained that there is.
