Successful use of phlebotomy to treat severe secondary polycythemia due to chronic lung disease
Hematology Reports, 2021 Secondary polycythemia (SP) occurs as a result of increase erythropoietin levels most commonly as a result of tissue hypoxia. Symptoms such as erythromelalgia, pruritis, and bleeding, which are frequently seen in polycythemia vera (PV), do not commonly ...

NATIONAL JOURNAL OF LABORATORY MEDICINE, 2021 Phlebotomy is the utmost important and underestimated procedure in the laboratory. The specimen collection plays a major role to give accurate results. The probability of errors increases when manual procedure is present. Certified courses and Continued Medical Education (CME) aids us in reducing the errors which can lead to misdiagnosis of the ...

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.By growing a conformal ZIF‐8 protective layer directly on antibody‐functionalized microneedles, this work converts a fragile biosensing interface into a thermostable diagnostic platform. The MOF@MN patch enables minimally invasive NGAL detection from dermal ISF while supporting cold‐chain‐independent storage and transport for decentralized kidney ...

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Phenylhydrazine (PHZ) induces hemolytic anemia characterized by increased erythrocyte destruction and ineffective erythropoiesis, leading to hepcidin suppression through disruption of the BMP/SMAD signaling pathway. Reduced hepcidin levels enhance intestinal iron absorption and hepatic iron accumulation, leading to hepatic iron overload.

Platelet FcɣRIIa Expression Refines Clinical Risk Assessment After Myocardial Infarction
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background In patients with myocardial infarction (MI), quantifying expression of platelet FcɣRIIa (pFCG) stratifies risk of subsequent MI, stroke, and death. Aims Assess the prognostic implications of clinical risk alone and in combination with the pFCG test.

Validation of a stall‐side immunoglobulin assay for use in equine reproductive management
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Equine foals receive IgG from mare colostrum through passive transfer. Failure of passive transfer (FPT) is a significant risk to the foal's life, leaving them vulnerable to infection and sepsis. Radial Immunodiffusion (RID) and immunoturbidimetric assays quantify IgG present in a foal sample but require a laboratory to complete ...

The results of a close follow-up of trainees to gain a good blood collection practice [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2020 Background: Phlebotomy is one of the most important steps in the preanalytical phase of a clinical laboratory process. In order to decrease phlebotomy errors, this specific procedure should be taught in detail by laboratory organizations.
