this article reviews will focus on the concept and formation of micro particles (mps) in circulation and their role in transfusion medicine and immune system. mps are cell membrane derived vesicles which express markers of their parent cells and are found in circulation at low levels. exact functions of mps are unclear. in here, physiological almost all types of circulating mps including platel...

Background: Early diagnosis is paramount to the treatment of neonatal infections. Nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) are immature erythrocytes that increase in number due to stress and hypoxia. This study was conducted to determine NRBC count in the peripheral blood and examine its significance as a marker of neonatal infection. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 154 infants (78 ...
