Transfusion of older red blood cell units, cytokine burst and alloimmunization: a case-control study [PDF]

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2015
BACKGROUND: Experimental data have shown that the transfusion of older red blood cell units causes alloimmunization, but the clinical applicability of this statement has never been properly assessed in non-sickle cell patients.

Reticulocytes in donor blood units enhance red blood cell alloimmunization [PDF]

Haematologica, 2023
Although red blood cell (RBC) transfusions save lives, some patients develop clinically-significant alloantibodies against donor blood group antigens, which then have adverse effects in multiple clinical settings. Few effective measures exist to prevent

Red cell alloimmunization is associated with development of autoantibodies and increased red cell transfusion requirements in myelodysplastic syndrome [PDF]

Haematologica, 2017
Up to 90% of patients with a myelodysplastic syndrome require red blood cell transfusion; nevertheless, comprehensive data on red cell alloimmunization in such patients are limited.

Red cell alloimmunization in multitransfused hepatobiliary patients at hospital Selayang

Asian Journal of Transfusion Science
BACKGROUND: Transfusion support is vital for the management of patients with hepatobiliary disease. Repeated blood transfusions increase the risk of alloimmunization, i.e., the development of alloantibodies, which might lead to difficulties in blood ...
