Persons with hemophilia have an increased bleeding tendency in which those with mild hemophilia mainly experience bleeding events provoked by trauma or surgery. In contrast, persons with severe hemophilia, especially when not treated on prophylaxis, experience frequent spontaneous bleeding events. More...15 Aug 2022

AI Holography System Accurately Checks Quality of Red Blood Cells
Researchers have developed an AI holography system that automatically extracts important information and inspects the quality of red blood cells. The new system is expected to become a key technology for enabling cleaner and healthier red blood cell injections to patients through accurate quality inspection of red blood cells stored for a certain period of time for blood transfusion.

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Genomic Study Reveals New Subtypes
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow. It affects the white blood cells called lymphocytes. It tends to develop very slowly. It is more common in older people and is rare in people younger than 40. More...08 Aug 2022


Whole Genome Sequences Discriminate Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Phenotypes
The abnormal vascular structures of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) often cause severe anemia due to recurrent hemorrhage, but HHT causal genes do not predict the severity of hematological complications. More...26 Jul 2022

DNA Testing Assessed in Childhood Sickle-Cell Anemia Diagnosis
Sickle-cell disease (SCD) is the most common genetic disorder worldwide. SCD patients are homozygous for a recurrent mutation in the HBB-gene resulting in the substitution of a glutamic acid residue with a valine amino acid at position 6 of the beta globin protein (E6V). More...21 Jul 2022
