Hemoglobin Threshold for Blood Transfusion in Young Children Hospitalized with Iron Deficiency Anemia.

Current recommendations advise against blood transfusion in hemodynamically stable children with iron deficiency anemia. In an observational study of 125 children aged 6 through 36 months, hospitalized with iron deficiency anemia, we found that hemoglobin level predicted red blood cell transfusion (area under the curve 0.8862).

Coupling effect of reaction conditions on the catalytic activity of Cu-Mn composite oxide catalysts for toluene.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are one of the major components of air pollution. Catalytic combustion is a promising technology for the treatment of VOCs and at its center is the preparation of efficient and cheap catalysts. In this study, by loading copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn) on Santa Barbara Amorphous-15 (SBA-15) molecular sieve, the Cu-Mn/SBA-15 ( = 1, 2; = 1, 2) composite metal oxide catalyst was prepared using the equal volume impregnation method.
