Umbilical cord blood transplantation (CBT) has been widely used as an alternative source of hematopoietic cell support for stem cell transplant patients. CBT offers several advantages over traditional stem cell sources, such as immediate availability, absence of risk for donors, lower risk of acute graft-versus-host disease, and a less stringent requirement for human leukocyte antigen matching....
متن کاملUmbilical cord blood transplantation.
Interest in umbilical cord blood as an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells is growing rapidly.

متن کاملUmbilical Cord Arterial Blood Gas and Apgar Score: Who Is at Higher Risk?
Background: Fetal asphyxia and the consequent neurological damages could be avoided if the risk factors are controlled at earlier stages. Umbilical cord arterial blood gas (UCABG) seems to be related to the Apgar scores, as well as the neonatal morbidity and mortality rates. Therefore, we designed this study to assess the correlation between the Apgar score and UCABG i...
