the increased risk of hemolytic reactions and erythrocyte recovery delay in abo incompatible hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) is well established. effects of abo incompatibility on transplantation outcomes is evaluated in this study. we prospectively followed 501 patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation according to abo compatibility groups of minor, major and bidi...

With data on 91 alloimmunized thrombocytopenic patients and 389 donor-recipient pairs matched or selectively mismatched for HLA antigens, it was observed that ABO incompatibility significantly reduced the effectiveness of platelet transfusions. The mean 24-hr recovery of platelets from histocompatible donors and from donors selectively mismatched for cross-reactive HLA antigens was decreased by...

Background and Aim: One of the main goals of blood transfusion medicine is to determine the compatibility of the blood products with the patients. Therefore, clinical and laboratory (serologic) evaluations should be done to determine the maximum compatibility (or minimum incompatibility). The most known blood groups is the ABO antigenic system and the most important of them is Rh system. Among ...

We aimed to determine the role of exchange transfusion related complications, treatment, and etiology as well as subgroup incompatibility in patients subject to ET (exchange transfusion) due to newborn jaundice. 82 patients hospitalized due to newborn jaundice and exposed to exchange transfusion between August 2007 and August 2011 were retrospectively studied. Before ET mean total serum bilirub...

although abo incompatibility between mother and fetus has long been suspected as cause of spontaneous abortion in man, its precise contribution has not been completely resolved. in spite of reports in which the incompatible mating was recognized to be a cause of habitual abortion, and which eventually results in infertility or a reduction in the number of living children compared with the numbe...

BACKGROUND About 85.3% of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) is caused by maternal-fetal ABO blood group incompatibility. However, there is currently no recommended "best" therapy for ABO incompatibility during pregnancy. OBJECTIVES To systematically assess the safety and effectiveness of oral Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) for preventing HDN due to ABO incompatibility. METHODS The proto...

Hemolytic disease of newborn (HDN) is caused by the emergence of inappropriate antibodies against fetal blood antigens, which includes ABO and Rh blood group incompatibility. This study investigated the association between prenatal blood group antibody titer and HDN to provide a theoretic basis for clinical practice. ABO and Rh blood group of 7894 pregnant women and their husbands were screened...
