This study was conducted to provide basic data on physiological and hematological characteristics, and organ weights of beagle dogs. A total of 237 beagle dogs were used to determine differences in physiological and hematological parameters, and organ weights depending on sex and age. The respiratory rate of both sexes tended to increase as they grew older and the female heart rate was slightly...

BACKGROUND Anemia, leucopenia and thrombocytopenia are the commonest hematological abnormalities resulting from human immunodeficiency virus infection. The use of antiretroviral drugs could positively or negatively affect these disorders. Thus a specific diagnosis and a determination of hematological and immunological parameters are required for initiating and monitoring early treatment to aver...

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis (TB) treatment may present significant hematological disorder and some anti-TB drugs also have serious side effects. Although many other diseases may be reflected by the blood and its constituents, the abnormalities of red cells, white cells, platelets, and clotting factors are considered to be primary hematologic disorder as a result of tuberculosis treatment. The aim o...

BACKGROUND At present, immunophenotyping of hematological malignancies represents one of the most relevant clinical applications of flow cytometry. In recent years, its use has extended from clinical research to diagnostic laboratories. The aim of this report is to critically review the type of information provided by the flow cytometric immunophenotyping of hematological malignancies and its c...

BACKGROUND The risk of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation in patients with different hematological malignancy except lymphoma were rarely known before. METHODS A total of 1962 patients with hematological malignancy were enrolled and followed-up at the National Taiwan University Hospital between 2008 and 2013. The clinical characteristics, HBV serology, and laboratory data were retrospective...

Hematological disturbances that develop during linezolid treatment are a major concern when linezolid is administered for prolonged periods of time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influences of pyridoxine, rifampin, and renal function on hematological adverse events. From January 2002 to April 2006, 52 patients received a long-term course of linezolid. Blood cell counts were monitore...

associations of some hematological and lymphatic diseases with sex and abo and rh blood groups were studied in 2579 patients, compared with a control group of 126332 individuals, by the use of clinical as well as laboratory findings, in tehran. highly significant increase of male/female ratio is shown in acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, aplas...

OBJECTIVE Detailed analyses of clinical characteristics of myocardial infarction (MI) as an essential thrombocythemia (ET)- and polycythemia vera (PV)-related complication have been so far presented mostly as case reports. Therefore, the aim of this retrospective analysis was to evaluate the main cardiological and hematological characteristics for better understanding myocardial complications i...

Hematological traits are important indicators of immune function and have been commonly examined as biomarkers of disease and disease severity in humans. Pig is an ideal biomedical model for human diseases due to its high degree of similarity with human physiological characteristics. Here, we conducted genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for 18 hematological traits at three growth stages (da...

OBJECTIVE Patients with hematological malignancies frequently encounter spine-related symptoms, which are caused by disease itself or process of treatment. However, there is still lack of knowledge on their epidemiology and clinical courses. The purpose of this article is to review clinical presentations and surgical results for spinal involvement of hematologic malignancies. METHODS From Jan...
