OBJECTIVES To compare two hematological analyzers-the DxH-800 (DxH; Beckman-Coulter, Miami, FL) and XN-2000 (XN; Sysmex, Kobe, Japan)-with the Cell-Dyn Sapphire (SAPH; Abbott, Santa Clara, CA). METHODS We analyzed 4,375 samples. Slide reviews were made in the presence of blast, abnormal lymphocyte, and immature granulocyte (IG) flags or nucleated RBC (NRBC) count. RESULTS The analyzers exhi...

Background: Early diagnosis of perinatal asphyxia is very essential since it is a major cause of neurologic morbidity and mortality. The present study was undertaken to investigate the association between nucleated red blood cells count (RBCs) per 100 white blood cells (WBCs) and perinatal asphyxia with respect to its severity and prognosis. Materials and Methods: A prospective case-control stu...

Blood transfusion in β-thalassemia major aims to suppress ineffective erythropoiesis, limit morbidity from chronic anemia, and minimize bone changes from marrow expansion and extra-medullary hemopoiesis (EMH). In the 1970s, blood transfusion was shown to suppress erythropoiesis. It is uncertain how much blood should be transfused to each patient for optimal long-term health and to minimize comp...

This work describes the development of a hybrid framework Runge–Kutta (RK), discontinuous Galerkin (DG), level set (LS) and direct ghost fluid (DGFM) methods for simulation near-field early-time underwater explosions (UNDEX) in early-stage ship design. UNDEX problems provide series challenging issues to be solved. The multi-dimensional, multi-phase, compressible inviscid fluid-governing equatio...

Sequestration of infected red blood cells (iRBC) within the cerebral and pulmonary microvasculature is a hallmark of human cerebral malaria (hCM). The interaction between iRBC and the endothelium in hCM has been studied extensively and is linked to the severity of malaria. Experimental CM (eCM) caused by Plasmodium berghei ANKA reproduces most features of hCM, although the sequestration of RBC ...

background: haemobartonella (also known as mycoplasma) is a blood organism of cats and can cause many anemia and many clinical signs in the infected cats. objectives: the purpose of the present study is to calculate the incidence rate of haemobartonellosis in pet cats of tehran and study its relationship with certain factors. moreover, some blood parameters in the infected cats were compared wi...

Background The nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) are a readily available hematological parameter with potential for risk stratification mortality. Therefore, our objective was to assess the predictive significance of NRBCs ICU mortality among ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients admitted an ICU. Additionally, we aimed compare capacity that acute physiology and chronic health eval...

Automated blood cell counters have undergone a formidable technological evolution owing to the introduction of new physical principles for cellular analysis and the progressive evolution of software [1,2]. The results have been an improvement in analytical efficiency and an increase in information provided with new parameters. A 61-year-old male patient had the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell...

Malaria is a global infectious disease that threatens the lives of millions of people. Transcriptomics, proteomics and functional genomics studies, as well as sequencing of the Plasmodium falciparum and Homo sapiens genomes, have shed new light on this host-parasite relationship. Recent advances in accurate mass measurement mass spectrometry, sophisticated data analysis software, and availabili...
