Childhood Hereditary Spherocytosis Confirmed by Hematology Analyzer
The hallmark of hereditary spherocytosis is a decreased surface area-to-volume ratio of the erythrocytes, resulting in the characteristic spherocyte form and in a blood film, spherocytes have a smaller diameter than normal RBC and are hyperchromic. More...25 Feb 2015
Transplanted Blood Cell Biomarker Associated with Improved Survival
Among patients with severe aplastic anemia who received stem cell transplant from an unrelated donor, longer leukocyte telomere length, a structure at the end of a chromosome was associated with increased overall survival at five years. More...23 Feb 2015
