Hematology

Image: Howell-Jolly body–like inclusion within neutrophil (arrow). It appears as a completely detached and densely basophilic inclusion in the cytoplasm of neutrophil. Photos were taken from different cases (Photo courtesy of University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston).

Howell-Jolly Body-Like Inclusions Correlated with Myelodysplastic Syndrome

Howell-Jolly body–like inclusions have been previously associated with patients who are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected, taking antiviral medications, and immunosuppressed. These inclusions appear in neutrophils and resemble Howell-Jolly bodies of normoblasts in abnormal erythropoiesis. More...

Image: Bone marrow aspirate smear from a patient with acute lymphoblastic leukemia reveals increased blasts which are small to medium in size with high nuclear-to-cytoplasmic ratios, round to irregular nuclei, smooth chromatin, and scant basophilic agranular cytoplasm (Photo courtesy of Karen M. Chisholm MD, PhD).

Genetic Marker Predicts Early Relapse in Pediatric ALL

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common childhood cancer; however, treatment has improved dramatically due to the ability to stratify patients into groups based on risk factors and genetic analysis. More...

Macrocytic Anemia Associated with HBV Liver Impairment Severity

Cirrhosis is an end-stage disease that invariably leads to death and it is the 14th most common cause of death in adults worldwide and results in 1.03 million deaths per year. Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the major causes of cirrhosis and 30% of deaths are attributable to HBV. More...

Potential Screening for Tailoring Treatment of AML

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a serious disorder of certain blood-forming cells. In this disease, certain early precursor cells in the bone marrow that usually develop into white blood cells do not mature properly. They remain frozen as primitive cells called blasts, unable to further differentiate and mature. More...

Unique Genetic Makeup of Myeloma Tumor Cells Profiled

Multiple myeloma is the second-most common type of blood cancer. Multiple myeloma occurs when plasma cells in the bone marrow, the cells that produce antibodies, proliferate out of control and lead to various type of organ failure and death. More...

Plasmodium vivax Isolated in Duffy Negative Individuals

Malaria in Nigeria is principally due to Plasmodium falciparum and, to a lesser extent to P. malariae and P. ovale. P. vivax is thought to be absent in Nigeria in particular and sub-Saharan Africa in general, due to the near fixation of the Duffy negative gene in this population. More...

Transfusions with Older Blood Linked to Adverse Events

After a serious injury, the leading cause of death is loss of blood. Major trauma victims who receive transfusions of packed blood 22 days old or older may face increased risk of death within 24 hours. More...
