Estimating the Factor VIII‐Equivalent Activity of Emicizumab Using Global Assays of Haemostasis

open access: yesHaemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Emicizumab is a bispecific monoclonal antibody mimicking factor (F) VIII activity and an effective therapy for prophylaxis in people with haemophilia A (PWHA). The FVIII‐equivalent activity (FVIIIeq) of emicizumab remains unknown. Objectives To estimate FVIIIeq of emicizumab using global assays of haemostasis.

Co‐Occurrence of HIV‐Susceptibility and ‐Protective HLA Alleles Is a Possible Contributor to the Development of Primary HIV‐Associated Thrombocytopenia (PHAT): A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Immunogenetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Primary HIV‐associated thrombocytopenia (PHAT) is an isolated thrombocytopenia in HIV‐positive individuals in the absence of secondary causes. The presence of certain Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) has been linked to individuals’ immune response to HIV and the development of immune‐mediated thrombocytopenic disorders.

ADAMTS13 in the New Era of TTP

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a life-threatening, often immune-mediated disease that affects 2–13 persons per million per year. Hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and end-organ damage due to the formation of microthrombi are characteristic of TTP.

Common Hematologic Emergencies—Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia and Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemias—A Pivotal Role of Clinical Laboratory

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic emergencies are urgent health conditions which result in significant mortality and morbidity unless timely therapeutic measures are taken. Therapeutic success depends on their timely and accurate recognition by hematology laboratory services.

Vitamin B12 deficiency in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura-like cases

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine
Background: Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) are characterized by a triad of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and organ damage which occur in the setting of endothelial damage and platelet activation.

Acute Plasmodium yoelii 17XNL Infection During BCG Vaccination Limits T Cell Responses and Mycobacterial Growth Inhibition

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Tuberculosis and malaria overlap in many sub‐Saharan African countries where BCG vaccination is routinely administered. The aim of this study was to determine whether the timing of BCG vaccination in relation to a malaria infection has implications for BCG vaccine efficacy.

Approximation algorithms for TTP(2)

open access: yesMathematical Methods of Operations Research, 2012
We consider the traveling tournament problem, which is a well-known benchmark problem in tournament timetabling. It consists of designing a schedule for a sports league of n teams such that the total traveling costs of the teams are minimized. The most important variant of the traveling tournament problem imposes restrictions on the number of ...
