Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder associated with chronic haemolysis and anaemia, recurrent episodes of pain potentially multisystem end-organ damage. A lot less known about the dental health these patients. To explore incidence severe leading to extraction in our sickle population. We undertook audit looking at rate extractions, as a composite marker disease, among patients over 3-month period. The were unselected approached during routine assessments. analysed both clinical...
Asymptomatic lymphocytosis poses a common challenge in haematology. Immunophenotyping can establish whether clonal population is present, but it expensive and the benefit of diagnosing asymptomatic patients unproven. This study aimed to data guide use immunophenotyping. We analysed proportion full blood count (FBC) samples across five-year period within large UK National Health Service (NHS) trust. Persistent was present 0.18% (437/242678) repeat community samples. Of sent for...
Haematology professionals in training have a world of learning at their fingertips. Well-written textbooks and review articles are joined by YouTube channels, Twitter accounts, data interpretation banks. Professional haematology organisations invested digital education, providing extensive repositories podcasts, image banks, recorded lecture series. Regional national postgraduate days conferences can now be 'attended' through laptop an internet connection. There clear benefits remote meeting...
Accurate classification of haematological cells is critical for diagnosing blood disorders, but presents significant challenges machine automation owing to the complexity cell morphology, heterogeneities biological, pathological, and imaging characteristics, imbalance type frequencies. We introduce CytoDiffusion, a diffusion-based classifier that effectively models combining accurate with robust anomaly detection, resistance distributional shifts, interpretability, data efficiency,...
Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is a common therapy for patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The initial response rate IVIg 80%[1][1] and typically rapid, some responding in 24 hours, although usually 2–4 days.[2][2] When used alone, the
Abstract Background Red blood cell exchange is the cornerstone of management for acute complications sickle disease. It improves anaemia and improvesperipheral tissue oxygen delivery while at same time reduces proportion circulating erythrocytes. Even though automated red very effective in rapidly lowering Hb S level, 24‐h availability currently not feasible most specialist centres including our own. Objective Here, we describe experience using both manual complications. Methods Eighty‐six...
