Pernicious anemia and Vitamin B12 deficiency have a wide range of symptoms and are a common finding in the elderly. A 73 year old female is admitted to the hospital because of dyspnea, fatigue and loss of appetite and weight. While previous medical history and physical examination are inconspicuous,
Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a clonal bone marrow disorder which results in the loss of glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchors from cell membranes. As a consequence, membrane inhibitors of complement are lost rendering the cells more susceptible to complement mediated
A microcapsule suspension, a substitute for animal blood in hemolysis tests, has been developed for evaluation of the absolute hemolytic properties of circulatory artificial organs. The microcapsule suspension was made by dispersing microcapsule slurry into an ethylene glycol sodium chloride
Many studies have focused on the free-radical-initiated peroxidation of membrane lipid, which is associated with a variety of pathological events. Panax ginseng is used in traditional Chinese medicine to enhance stamina and capacity to deal with fatigue and physical stress. Many reports have been
Panax ginseng has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to enhance stamina and capacity to deal with fatigue and physical stress. Many reports have been devoted to the effects of ginsenosides on many in vitro or in vivo experimental systems. The major aim of this work is to investigate the
BACKGROUND
The brown recluse spider (BRS) (Loxosceles reclusa) envenomation can lead to multiple complications, including hemolysis. We present a case of refractory hemolysis after a BRS bite treated with therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE).
METHODS
A 17-year-old female presented with fever, fatigue,
Hemolytic anemia and possible aplastic crisis with symptoms including jaundice, general fatigue and dark urine developed in a man being treated only by lansoprazole. Five days later, he was treated with antibiotics. The next day, he was admitted to our hospital because of jaundice. On admission, the
Haemolytic anaemia is a commonly encountered condition in clinical haematology practise. Dissecting the aetiology of haemolytic anaemia is of paramount importance for appropriate management. We describe a 29-years-old lady of Indian origin, who presented with fatigue and recurrent jaundice for 2
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an enzyme, playing an important role in the redox metabolism of all aerobic cells. It was reported that certain medications, fava beans, and infections can trigger acute hemolytic anemia in patients with G6PD deficiency. An 8-year-old male patient was
BACKGROUND
In recent years, few cases of post-artemisinin delayed hemolysis have been reported.
OBJECTIVE
All cases of post-artemisinin delayed hemolysis were reported from non-middle east areas. No case of post-artemisinin delayed hemolysis has yet been reported from this region. In this paper, we
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired hemolytic anemia with highly variable clinical symptoms making the diagnosis and prediction of its outcome difficult. It is caused by the expansion of a hematopoietic progenitor cell that has acquired a mutation in the X-linked
OBJECTIVE
Gemcitabine plus capecitabine has moderate efficacy in patients with advanced renal cell cancer (RCC) but has considerable toxicity. We evaluated the efficacy and toxicity of a modified dose-schedule of this doublet in patients with metastatic RCC.
METHODS
Chemotherapy-naive patients were
An adult with a large patent ductus arteriosus may present with fatigue, dyspnea or palpitations or in rare presentation with endocarditis. The case illustrated unique role of vegetation of endocarditis in hemolytic anemia in adult with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Despite treatment of
BACKGROUND
Metformin is a widely prescribed biguanide antidiabetic drug that has been implicated as a cause of hemolytic anemia in three previous case reports. We report a case of rapidly fatal hemolysis that was temporally associated with the initiation of metformin treatment for diabetes.
We made a diagnosis of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency with a new mutation of 848A→G (exon 8) in a 16-year-old male patient presenting with severe hemolysis. He was administered a diclofenac sodium suppository (50 mg) at the time of first visit to our hospital because of pyrexia.
