Paper Diagnostic Directly Measures Fibrinogen in Whole Blood
Fibrinogen is a protein found in blood that is needed for clotting. When a patient experiences traumatic injury, such as a serious car accident, or major surgery and childbirth complications, fibrinogen is required in their blood to prevent major hemorrhaging and death from blood loss.

Newborns Getting Preoperative Blood Transfusions Have More Complications
Blood transfusions in the neonatal patient population are common, but there are no established guidelines regarding transfusion thresholds. Little is known about postoperative outcomes in neonates who receive preoperative blood transfusions (PBTs). More...05 Nov 2020

Single-Cell Sequencing Reveals Clonal Diversity Among AML Patients
A growing body of evidence supports the role of clonal diversity in therapeutic resistance, recurrence, and poor outcomes in cancer. Clonal diversity also reflects the history of the accumulation of somatic mutations within a tumor. More...03 Nov 2020

Inherited Causes of Clonal Hematopoiesis in Multiplicity of Whole Genomes
The age-related acquisition of somatic mutations that lead to clonal expansion in regenerating hematopoietic stem cell populations has recently been associated with both hematological cancer and coronary heart disease, and this phenomenon is termed clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). More...29 Oct 2020

New Technology Rapidly Diagnoses Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a group of blood disorders typically inherited from a person's parents. The most common type is known as sickle cell anemia (SCA). It results in an abnormality in the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin found in red blood cells. More...29 Oct 2020


Hematological Biomarkers Predict Prognosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an inflammation-related cancer, where non-resolving inflammation contributes to its development and progression. Peripheral inflammatory cells have been shown to be associated with the prognosis of various types of cancer. More...12 Oct 2020
