Non-Alloimmune Mechanisms of Thrombocytopenia and Refractoriness to Platelet Transfusion

Transfusion Medicine Reviews, 2020
Refractoriness to platelet transfusion is a common clinical problem encountered by the transfusion medicine specialist. It is well recognized that most causes of refractoriness to platelet transfusion are not a consequence of alloimmunization to human leukocyte, platelet-specific, or ABO antigens, but are a consequence of platelet sequestration and ...

TransFusion: Generating Long, High Fidelity Time Series using Diffusion Models with Transformers [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The generation of high-quality, long-sequenced time-series data is essential due to its wide range of applications. In the past, standalone Recurrent and Convolutional Neural Network-based Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) were used to synthesize time-series data. However, they are inadequate for generating long sequences of time-series data due to

Rheocarna treatment for non‐dialysis patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Rheocarna has attracted attention as an alternative therapy for severe chronic limb‐threatening ischemia, and there have been reports of its usefulness. However, most of these reports have been on dialysis patients, and there are few reports on the treatment conditions and efficacy in non‐dialysis patients.

Ensuring HLA-matched platelet support requires an ethnic diverse donor population [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: Patients refractory for platelet transfusions benefit from human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched platelet transfusions. Differences in ethnic background of patients and donors could hamper the availability of sufficient numbers of HLA-matched

Outcomes of type A aortic dissection in Australia

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Mortality outcomes for type A aortic dissection in Australia have improved over time, stabilizing at 18% over the last 5 years. Units performing fewer operations for type A dissection showed equivalent mortality outcomes to high‐volume units. Abstract Introduction Without surgical intervention, type A aortic dissection (TAAD) carries a high risk of ...

A Wigner-Seitz model of charged lamellar colloidal dispersions [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 56, 3137 (1997)., 1997
A concentrated suspension of lamellar colloidal particles (e. g. clay) is modelled by considering a single, uniformly charged, finite platelet confined with co- and counterions to a Wigner-Seitz (WS) cell. The system is treated within Poisson-Boltzmann theory, with appropriate boundary conditions on the surface of the WS cell, supposed to account for ...

Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease Patients Requiring Nephrectomy: Characteristics and Surgical Considerations

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nephrectomies are major surgeries often required in ADPKD for symptom control, removal of septic/malignant foci, and to create space for renal transplantation. Whether ADPKD patients should proceed with nephrectomy/ies should be guided by patient characteristics, technical considerations and anticipated risks and benefits. Methods A

Should HLA and HPA-matched platelet transfusions for patients with Glanzmann Thrombasthenia or Bernard-Soulier syndrome be standardized care? A Dutch survey and recommendations [PDF]

Background: Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) and Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) patients require frequent platelet transfusions and hence have an increased risk for alloimmunization against donor Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) when no HLA-matching is ...
