Abstract

Thrombocytopenia is one of the commonest haematological problems in neonates, affecting at least 25% of all admissions to neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) [Murray NA, Howarth LJ, McCloy MP et al.

Platelet transfusions in the neonatal intensive care unit: factors predicting which patients will require multiple transfusions. Transfusion 2001;41:803-8]. Although a long list of disorders associated with neonatal thrombocytopenia can be found in many textbooks, newer classifications based on the timing of onset of thrombocytopenia (early vs. late) are more useful for planning diagnostic investigations and day-to-day management. The mainstay of treatment of neonatal thrombocytopenia remains platelet transfusion although it is important to note that no studies have yet shown clinical benefit of platelet transfusion in this setting. Indeed some reports even suggest that there...Continue Reading

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.
