Introduction: Introduction The Hy antigen is one of ten red cell antigens belonging to the Dombrock blood group system, with an antigen frequency of almost 100% in the majority of populations. Alloantibodies to high prevalence antigens cause difficulties with antibody identification and exclusion in serological investigations.
Case Presentation: This review describes the management of four antenatal cases where the presence of alloanti-Hy had been identified.

Background: Biomarkers that predict disease activity and prognosis should be established for neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD). In this study, we investigated the association between complement factors and the prognosis of NMOSD.
Methods: We validated laboratory parameters as potential prognostic factors in 34 patients with NMOSD (31 females and 3 males) whose serum was collected at the time of recurrence and who were subsequently followed-up for 3 years without the use of biologics.

is one of the most important foodborne pathogens that can cause invasive listeriosis. In this study, the virulence levels of 26 strains of isolated from food and clinical samples in Shanghai, China, between 2020 and 2022 were analyzed. There were significant differences among isolates in terms of their mortality rate in , cytotoxicity to JEG-3 cells, hemolytic activity, and expression of important virulence genes.
