Hemolytic Anemia in the Setting of Atypical Pneumonia: A Case of Cold Agglutinin Disease.

Cold agglutinin hemolytic anemia (cAHA) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by the production of cold agglutinins. We present a case of secondary cAHA in a 23-year-old female with severe anemia and unexplained hemolysis. The patient exhibited findings indicative of hemolysis and a positive direct antiglobulin test (DAT) with complement alone.

Neuroprotective potential of Bacopa monnieri and Bacoside A against dopamine receptor dysfunction in the cerebral cortex of neonatal hypoglycaemic rats.

Neonatal hypoglycaemia initiates a series of events leading to neuronal death, even if glucose and glycogen stores return to normal. Disturbances in the cortical dopaminergic function affect memory and cognition. We recommend Bacopa monnieri extract or Bacoside A to treat neonatal hypoglycaemia.
