Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a condition in which self-antibodies bound to antigens on the membranes of red blood cells initiate their destruction (hemolysis) via the complement and reticuloendothelial systems. Multiple myeloma (MM), on the other hand, is characterized by a clonal expansion of plasma cells in bone marrow, causing bone tissue destruction, renal failure and hematopoietic...

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is caused by hemolysis induced by the reaction of autoantibodies with red blood cells (RBCs) [1-4]. Events that lead to AIHA include extravascular hemolysis caused by phagocytosis of erythrocyte-bound IgG in the spleen (hemolytic mechanism), activation of polyclonal B cells, reactions induced by molecular mimicry of exogenous antigens, breakdown of immune tole...

BACKGROUND. A number of side effects have been observed in patients treated for hematological diseases with alpha-interferon (IFN). In several cases side effects consisted of immunological disorders. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is the most typical example of an IFN-induced immune-mediated complication. CASE SERIES. In 10 years we observed 9 patients with various hematological disorders w...

Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an uncommon entity that presents diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic dilemmas despite being a well-recognized entity for over 150 years. This is because of significant differences in the rates of hemolysis and associated diseases and because there is considerable clinical heterogeneity. In addition, there is a lack of clinical trials required to refine ...

Immune hemolytic anemia is a well-recognized complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). There are 4 possible causes for this complication. First, antibodies present in the recipient destroy donor cells. Second, donor red cell antibodies at the time of stem cell infusion are transferred to the recipient. Third, sometimes, engrafted donor lymphocytes cause activ...

in order to evaluate the efficacy of maister 3.1% od (foramsulfuron 3% + iodosulfuron 0.1% + isoxadifen-ethyl 3%) in the control of weeds in corn fields, a series of experiments were conducted during 2010 in karaj, zarghan and jiroft. a series of rcbd design with four replications. treatments were application of a) nicosulfuron (kruz) at 2 lit.ha-1, b) bromoxynil+mcpa (bromicid m.a) 1.5 lit.ha-...

Brucellosis is a worldwide zoonotic disease associated with hemolytic complications, including thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) and hemolytic anemia. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a rare clinical presentation of this disease. In this report, we describe the cases of two patients with brucellosis who presented with Coombs-positive AIHA. We also include a review of the literature on the h...

Objective: This research was carried out as a greenhouse experiment in the form of a Completely Randomized Factorial Design (CRD) in three-run sequences. The research aimed at investigating the impacts of Nicosulfuron (Cruz) and Rimsulfuran (Titus) residues on the growth of wheat in two soil types which differed in their levels of organic compounds and salinity. Methods: Treatment of the experi...
