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


Anti-Double Stranded DNA Antibodies Diagnose Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Anti-double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid antibodies (anti-dsDNA Abs) embrace antibodies with a wide spectrum of fine molecular specificities that are produced persistently in the context of true autoimmunity or transiently in context of infections or other clinical conditions. More...13 Jul 2022

Horiba Showcases New Generation Automated Hemostasis Analyzers at ISTH 2022
Horiba Medical (Kyoto, Japan) showcased the latest additions to its Yumizen G range of hemostasis analyzers and reagents at ISTH 2022 Congress - the premier event in the field of thrombosis and hemostasis - at London’s Excel from 9-13 July 2022. More...07 Jul 2022


Thromboelastometry Predicts Thromboembolic Events in COVID-19 Patients
In addition to severe pulmonary and renal injury, abnormality of hemostasis is recognized as a contributing factor to the severity of the COVID-19. Thromboembolic complications were diagnosed in 31% of patients with COVID-19 infection admitted to an intensive care unit, despite anticoagulation therapy. More...05 Jul 2022
