To present the interim findings from a national study investigating safety and efficacy of convalescent plasma (CP) containing detectable IgG antibodies as treatment strategy for severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).An open label, two-arm, phase-II clinical trial conducted across 22 hospitals Saudi Arabia. The intervention group included 40 adults (aged ≥18 years) with confirmed COVID-19 control 124 patients matched using propensity score age, gender, intubation status, history...
Abstract Background The distress thermometer (DT) is an effective tool for identifying among cancer patients worldwide. However, DT has not been studied in Egyptian patients. We aimed to study the prevalence of with different types cancers using DT. Methods A total 550 newly diagnosed hematological and solid who were followed up at 3 Oncology Centers Egypt enrolled. They completed a sociodemographic clinical status questionnaire, Problem List (PL) scale. Results At cut-off score ≥4, 46% had...
CXCR4 is a receptor for stromal-derived factor-1 (SDF-1), molecule that has chemotactic activity lymphocytes and important in homing of hematopoietic stem cells to their adult marrow. We evaluated the (CD184) expression harvest post-transplant bone marrow (BM) its relation engraftment, as determined by consensus criteria chimerism. This prospective study which included 30 patients undergoing cell transplantation; 15 received autograft allograft on dates between January 2012 May 2014....
Myeloid sarcoma is a tumor of myoblasts or immature myeloid cells occurring in an extramedullary site. the female genital tract as isolated initial presentation relapse very rare evidenced from literature review. We report case vulvar presenting acute leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). A 41-year-old diagnosed with AML M5 achieved remission chemotherapy and underwent HSCT HLA-matched sibling donor. The post-transplant period was complicated chronic...
The COVID-19 pandemic is expected to cause significant morbidity and mortality. development of an effective vaccine will take several months become available, its affordability unpredictable. Transfusion convalescent plasma (CP) may provide passive immunity. Based on initial data from China, a group hematologists, infectious disease specialists, intensivists drafted this protocol in March 2020.The aim study test the feasibility, safety, efficacy CP treating patients with across Saudi...

Bilateral femoral neuropathy is rare, especially that caused by bilateral compressive iliopsoas, psoas, or iliacus muscle hematomas. We present a case of due to spontaneous psoas hematomas developed during COVID-19 critical illness. A 41-year-old patient pneumonia, and his condition deteriorated rapidly. decrease in the hemoglobin level prompted imaging studies intensive care unit (ICU) stay. were identified as source bleeding. Thereafter, complained weakness both upper lower limbs numbness...
A 19-year-old patient with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) developed severe and prolonged cytopenia unexplained jaundice fever after salvage chemotherapy. His workup revealed hemophagocytosis on the bone marrow biopsy. He was treated for HLH (hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis) secondary to AML The died day 56 starting his Unexpectedly, death, microbiology laboratory reported positive mycobacterial growth from a bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) sample taken during of fever. This case...
Chronic myelogenous leukemia, or CML, is another name for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), a cancer type that starts in certain bone marrow blood-forming cells. The primary initiator of granulocytic proliferation myeloproliferative malignancy, the BCR-ABL1 fusion protein Philadelphia chromosome. CML classified into three stages: chronic, accelerated, and blast. It has been widely recognized likelihood developing varies by gender, geography, age. In phase (CML-CP), bleeding rare sign since...
Background Real-world evidence on factor Xa inhibitor (rivaroxaban) prescribing patterns, safety, and efficacy in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) venous thromboembolism (VTE) is rare. Herein, we sought to examine the above outcomes largest academic center Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Methods This a retrospective observational study designed pattern, safety real-world effectiveness rivaroxaban NVAF VTE. Data prescriptions were collected analyzed. Bleeding defined as...
