Diagnostic Value of Hematology Parameters Investigated for Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a severe rare syndrome characterized by pathologic immune activation and hyperinflammation with harmful effects on multiple organs. The clinical presentations of HLH may include fever, cytopenias, splenomegaly, and hyperferritinemia, none of which is specific for this rare though life-threatening condition. More...04 Aug 2021

Differential Biochemical Markers Identified in Inflammatory Processed Synovial Fluid
Joint infections with a non-specific presentation are difficult to diagnose, mainly due to the absence of specific clinical signs and symptoms, relative lack of accurate laboratory tests, low virulence due to previous treatment, and biofilm ability of the pathogens. More...28 Jul 2021

Preemies' Blood Type Tied to Risk for Necrotizing Enterocolitis
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and focal intestinal perforation (FIP) are two of the most common emergencies of the gastrointestinal tract in preterm infants with very low birth weight (VLBW). The etiology and pathogenesis of NEC and FIP remain poorly understood. More...21 Jul 2021

Optical Genome Mapping Enables Constitutional Chromosomal Aberration Detection
Optical genome mapping (OGM) is a novel method that fills this void by being able to detect all classes of structural variations (SVs), including copy number variations (CNVs). OGM is being adopted by laboratories as a tool for both postnatal constitutional genetic disorders and hematological malignancies. More...20 Jul 2021
