Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)

Study of Frequency and Characteristics of Red Blood Cell Alloimmunization in Thalassemic Patients: Multicenter Study from Palestine

Advances in Hematology, 2019
Background. β-Thalassemia is a common inherited hemolytic disorder in Palestine. Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is the principal treatment but it may cause RBC alloimmunization.

The Diagnosis and Prenatal Management of Non‐RHD Alloimmunizations

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
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.

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

Transfusion 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 ...

Platelet Transfusion Induces Alloimmunization to D and Non-D Rhesus Antigens. [PDF]

, 2018
Background Platelet concentrates (PC) contain residual contaminating red blood cells (RBC), being higher in pooled buffy coat PC (BC-PC) than in apheresis units (AP-PC).

Fucosylation limits ADCC in clinically used anti‐RhD monoclonal antibodies

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Haemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is caused by maternal alloantibodies, often targeting the D antigen on fetal red blood cells. Maternal immunization is preventable with timely administration of anti‐D polyclonal antibodies (pAbs).

Red blood cell alloimmunization among rhesus D-negative patients in a teaching hospital in Northeastern Malaysia

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science
BACKGROUND: Rhesus D (RhD) negative is considered a rare blood group in Asian country including Malaysia. Thus, the red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization among RhD negative is considered significant because the blood’s availability and rarity makes it ...

Investigating the molecular basis of the serological Rh D‐negative phenotype in Indonesia: nature, frequency, and impact for diagnostics

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although widely studied and reported for more than 30 years, the molecular basis of Rh D‐negativity has remained unexplored in several regions of the world, including in Indonesia, Southeast Asia. Study Design and Methods A subset of 436 Indonesian blood donors originally typed D‐negative (D–) by routine serological testing was ...

Massive fetomaternal hemorrhage and successful prevention of maternal RhD alloimmunization: A case report

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Massive fetomaternal hemorrhage can lead to significant fetal morbidity or mortality. RhD negative patients require appropriate treatment to prevent alloimmunization in subsequent pregnancies. Few cases with follow‐up into future pregnancies have been reported.
