ABSTRACT Hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) remains a significant concern in prenatal care primarily caused by maternal alloimmunization against fetal red blood cell antigens, most commonly the D antigen. Noninvasive fetal RHD genotyping, used as a screening tool, enables targeted antenatal prophylaxis and has been implemented in several

The Diagnosis and Prenatal Management of Non‐RHD Alloimmunizations
ABSTRACT Red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization remains a relevant cause of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). Although RhD immunization has significantly decreased since the implementation of systematic prophylaxis, it is still the main cause of alloimmunization in pregnancy.

A comparison between bead‐based and cell‐based assays for autoantibody detection in childhood neutropenia revealed substantial discordance between platforms. Bead‐based methods should be complemented with cell‐based methods for optimal diagnostic sensitivity. Incorporating pro‐LL‐37 and ANC measurements into the clinical workup of childhood neutropenia

Identification of rare blood group donors from biobank data
Safe blood transfusion requires compatibility between recipient antibodies and donor red blood cell antigens, posing challenges for patients with rare blood group phenotypes, particularly those who are alloimmunized. Traditional identification of rare donors relies on targeted screening and labour‐intensive laboratory methods, often limited by ...

Italian Patients Journey for Gene Therapy in Haemophilia A
ABSTRACT Introduction Gene therapy (GT) provides sustained FVIII levels without repeated infusions in Hemophilia A (HA) patients thus overcoming a major limitation of replacement therapy. However, issues remain e.g., patient selection criteria, duration and variability of transgene expression, quality of life and long‐term safety.

Abstract Introduction Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a rare cause of autoimmune haemolytic anaemia (AIHA) which requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. We compared clinical and laboratory findings in AIHA patients with and without HIV. Methods We included adults with severe AIHA (haemoglobin ≤8 g/dL) diagnosed at a tertiary academic centre ...

Evaluation of point‐of‐care versus laboratory antiglobulin‐enhanced major crossmatch testing in cats
Objectives It is recommended that all cats, regardless of transfusion history, undergo major crossmatch prior to blood product administration to decrease the likelihood of immunological transfusion reactions. A reliable and user‐friendly point‐of‐care crossmatch test would help make crossmatch testing more accessible.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to analyse the distribution and demand patterns of antigen‐negative red blood cells (RBCs) in Shandong Province, China (2022–2024), with a focus on ABO blood groups and clinically significant antigens. The research was designed to provide rigorous data for advancing precision transfusion protocols and to establish a ...

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 ...
