Red blood cell aggregate flux in a bifurcating microchannel [PDF]
Red blood cell aggregation plays a key role in microcirculatory flows, however, little is known about the transport characteristics of red blood cell aggregates in branching geometries. This work reports on the fluxes of red blood cell aggregates of various sizes in a T-shaped microchannel, aiming to clarify the effects of different flow conditions in ...

ABSTRACT Immune effector cell‐associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis‐like syndrome (IEC‐HS) is a life‐threatening hyperinflammatory toxicity distinct from cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity following chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell (CAR‐T) therapy. In a single‐institution retrospective cohort of pediatric and young adult patients

Aggregation of Red Blood Cells in a Strong Electric Field [PDF]
ERYTHROCYTES, when suspended in blood plasma, form ‘rouleaux’, in which the single erythrocytes lie parallel like a pile of coins. This phenomenon is dependent on the presence of a specific substance in the plasma. When suspended in an isotonic sugar solution, the erythrocytes settle to the bottom very slowly, without forming any characteristically ...

ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...
