- The study aims to explore the clinical traits of seronegative hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia (SNHAA) and compare it with hepatitis B virus-related aplastic anemia (HBVAA) to assess the effectiveness of immunosuppressive therapy (IST).
- Ten SNHAA patients and 22 HBVAA patients were analyzed, revealing that SNHAA has a lower age of onset, faster IST response, and specific blood count differences compared to HBVAA, with similar overall treatment response rates (60% for SNHAA vs 82.3% for HBVAA).
- The findings suggest that SNHAA often presents as severe aplastic anemia with a quick response to therapy, and neither hepatitis before AA nor
A 41-year-old male had suffered from gradual hearing loss in his right ear for 2 years.

Methods: Clinical data of 28 elderly patients with newly diagnosed MM who underwent the TD regimen as the initial therapy were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the maximal sustained dose of Thal: lower dose (group A) and higher dose (group B).
Background: In adults, vitamin K-dependent coagulation factor deficiency (VKCFD) increases in the recent years. We treated a VKCFD patient with subarachnoid hemorrhage, with favorable outcomes.
Methods: A 19-year-old male student with VKCFD was treated at our hospital.
