The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Fast-track strategy for the prevention of Hb Bart’s hydrops fetalis syndrome

Thalassemia Reports, 2017
We propose a fast-track strategy [direct blood DNA analysis using a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique] for the early risk detection and prenatal diagnosis of α(0)-thalassemia (SEA and Thai deletion).

The true cost of red cell transfusion for patients with myelodysplastic syndromes: A time‐driven activity‐based costing study

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) often require red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. However, the true cost of RBC transfusion, beyond the acquisition cost of the unit, is poorly defined. We conducted a prospective time‐driven activity‐based costing study at a large Australian university teaching hospital.

Neutrophil extracellular traps induced by activated platelets as a cause of neutrophil–platelet aggregation in β‐thalassaemia/haemoglobin E patients

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Abnormal neutrophils and platelets in splenectomised β‐thalassaemia/haemoglobin E (HbE) disease contribute to neutrophil–platelet aggregation, leading to a high risk of thrombus formation. Activated platelets induce neutrophils to generate neutrophil extracellular trap (NETs) via the P‐selectin–P‐selectin glycoprotein ligand‐1 (PSGL1) pathway, which ...

Prognostic significance of mutated genes in megakaryocytic disorders

Oncology Reviews, 2019
Megakaryopoiesis is a process during which platelets that play a major role in hemostasis are produced due to differentiation and maturation of megakaryocytic precursors.

Thrombocytosis and the generation of platelet‐derived microparticles in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Thrombocytosis is associated with an increased production of platelet‐derived microparticles from activated platelets, which contribute to vaso‐occlusion in sickle cell disease by perpetuating the cycle of inflammation, procoagulant state and endothelial dysfunction.

Multicentric Asynchronous Endocrine Mucin‐Producing Sweat Gland Carcinoma and Mucinous Carcinoma of the Skin

Journal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endocrine mucin‐producing sweat gland carcinoma (EMPSGC) is an adnexal neoplasm which typically occurs on periorbital skin and demonstrates overlapping histopathologic features with primary mucinous carcinoma of the skin (MCS). Herein, we report a patient who developed five distinct lesions of EMPSGC and MCS over an eight‐year period, some of ...

Asymtomatic essential thrombocythemia in a child: a rare case report

International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2013
Essential thrombocythemia is a rare myeloproliferative disorder in pediatrics. This myeloproliferative disorder is charactherized by thrombocytosis and hyperplasia of megakaryocytes in the bone marrow. Other cell lines are not involved.JAK2V617Fmutations
