The persistence of red cell alloantibodies.

Blood transfusion = Trasfusione del sangue, 2008
Red cell alloantibodies may disappear over time and cause a delayed haemolytic reaction if their past existence is not known before a transfusion. Only few quantitative data have already been presented on this topic.We retrieved the records of alloantibodies detected between 1989 and 2008 in our institution.

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Bacterial Persister Cell Formation and Dormancy [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Bacterial cells may escape the effects of antibiotics without undergoing genetic change; these cells are known as persisters. Unlike resistant cells that grow in the presence of antibiotics, persister cells do not grow in the presence of antibiotics.

The BAFFling persistence of memory B cells [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2020
Although BAFF/BLyS and its receptor, BAFFR, play critical roles in naive B cell survival, the pathways involved in the persistence of memory B cells are largely unknown. In this issue of JEM, two groups, Müller-Winkler et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20191393) and Lau et al.

Referral Patterns and Diagnostic Timeliness in Pediatric Cancer: A Hospital‐Based Study in Indonesia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Timely diagnosis and treatment are critical for improving survival among children with cancer. In low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), delays are common and may be influenced by fragmented referral pathways and diagnostic limitations.

The role of dendritic cells in viral persistence [PDF]

Current Opinion in Virology, 2011
Viruses must modulate or suppress their host's immune system in order to persist. In this review, we discuss the means in which the lympocytic choriomenengitis virus targets and infects an essential component of the immune system, the dendritic cell, essential to bridging the innate and adaptive immune response.

Selective context, rather than persister cycling alone, drives resistance fixation in Escherichia coli

npj Antimicrobials and Resistance
Whether persister cells contribute to the evolution of antibiotic resistance and, if so, under what selective conditions this occurs, remain unresolved.

Biphasic Clinical Course of Pediatric Cytomegalovirus‐Associated Immune Thrombocytopenia: Early Poor Treatment Response but Favorable Long‐Term Outcomes

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a recognized trigger of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP); however, its incidence and impact on disease course in children remain controversial. Therefore, we aimed to characterize the clinical course of pediatric patients with CMV‐associated ITP.

Antibiotic Resistance and Presence of Persister Cells in the Biofilm-like Environments in Streptococcus agalactiae

Antibiotics
Objectives: This study investigated antibiotic resistance and presence of persister cells in Streptococcus agalactiae strains belonging to capsular types Ia/ST-103, III/ST-17, and V/ST-26 in biofilm-like environments. Results: S.
