Article Synopsis
- The study explored alternative diagnostic methods for iron deficiency in hemodialysis patients, focusing on reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHret) and hypochromic RBC percentage (HYPO%), compared to traditional biochemical tests.
- Reticulocyte indices and erythrocyte parameters showed better predictive abilities for iron deficiency, with area under the curve (AUC) values indicating their effectiveness.
- Results suggest that newly proposed measures, Ret-He and %Hypo-He, are clinically useful and provide information comparable to traditional methods in assessing iron responsiveness.
We report a case of Kaposi's sarcoma in a patient who received a double kidney transplant in 2005. Immunosuppression was induced with rapamycin and antilymphocyte serum while maintenance therapy consisted of rapamycin, corticosteroids and mycophenolic acid. The patient developed delayed graft function but no rejection.
