Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage is a potentially fatal pulmonary disease syndrome that affects individuals with hematological and nonhematological malignancies. The range of inciting factors is wide for this syndrome and includes thrombocytopenia, underlying infection, coagulopathy, and the frequent use of anticoagulants, given the high incidence of venous thrombosis in this population. Dyspnea, fe...

The statistical relaLionships among the glycolytic intermediates (GIs) of the Embden-Meyerhof pathway, adenine nucleotides (ANs) and various hematological measures were estimated for 34 sickle cell anemia patients, Heterogeneity in linea:: and quadratic regressions of hemoglobin and hematocrit, both singly and jointly, on the GI and AN variables implied 1) that any single formula to standardize...

Over the last 15 years several advances have been made in the early diagnosis and management of patients with various types of malignancies, resulting in a decrease in overall mortality. As underlined by I. Prieto del Portillo, et al. in their review published in the present issue of Rev Clin Esp, recent studies suggest that early admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) of oncohematology pat...

Catheter-related thrombosis (CRT) is a serious complication in hematological patients, but the risk factors for its occurrence are not well established. The study objectives were to estimate the incidence of CRT and to identify the risk factors for developing CRT in hematological patients. In a prospective setting, 104 consecutive patients with 200 insertions of central venous catheters were en...

a bstract background: the improved physical action following administration of supplements to bodybuilders was supported by changes in laboratory parameters. despite the fact that these supplements are sometimes associated both advantage and side effects, this study were conducted for the purpose of evaluating the possible effects of some commonly used supplements in bodybuilders on the hematol...

background human t-cell lymphotropic virus types ι and ιι (htlv-ι and htlv-ii) are deltaretroviruses which may cause leukemia, lymphoma and htlv-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (ham/tsp). in addition, htlv-1 may be related to thalassemia and hemophilia cases after blood transfusion. objectives the aim of this study was evaluation of the prevalence of htlvs in patients with he...

conclusions fennel increased red and white blood cells probably due to the presence of polyphenols and antioxidant activity of fennel and reduced negative effects of free radicals on blood cells. results fennel increased mean rbc (7.54 ± 0.53 × 106) and wbc (5.89 ± 0.78 × 103) values, especially at a dose of 250 mg/ml and ct (2.45 ± 0.20) at a dose of 500mg/ml compared to the control group (p <...
