Cold agglutinin syndrome as a precursor for the diagnosis of low‑grade lymphoma: A case report.
Med Int (Lond)
December 2024
Department of Hematology, Dokuz Eylul University Hospital, Izmir 35000, Turkey.
Cold agglutinin syndrome is a form of acquired hemolytic anemia that typically arises from underlying conditions, such as infections, autoimmune disorders or lymphoid malignancies. The majority of patients remain asymptomatic and are diagnosed with anemia through routine complete blood count (CBC) testing. The present study describes the case of a male patient in his 50s who sought a second opinion at the authors' clinic due to newly detected anemia.

Department of Blood Transfusion, Fujita Health University Hospital, Toyoake, Japan.
Background: Ethylenediamine tetraacetate/glycine acid (EGA) and chloroquine diphosphate (CDP) are used in transfusion testing to dissociate IgG antibodies from red blood cells (RBCs). However, the ability of these reagents to dissociate IgM antibodies sensitized to RBCs has not been comprehensively elucidated. We investigated whether EGA and CDP could dissociate cold-reactive antibodies from RBCs and their effect on RBCs after dissociation treatment.

January 2025
Blood Bank - Laboratory of Immunohematology, Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Brugmann/Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Brussels, Belgium.
Background: Detection of alloantibodies associated with the JK system may be tricky. They are nevertheless associated with transfusion reactions and their detection is crucial.
Study Design And Methods: Retrospectively and over a period of 7 years, we compared the results obtained using two different assays for antibody detection.
Efficacy of hyperimmunized egg yolk antibodies (IgY) against Campylobacter jejuni: In Vitro and In Vivo evaluations.

Campylobacter infections are a prevalent cause of diarrheal disease in humans and are the most significant zoonotic pathogens worldwide. Human campylobacteriosis is generally via ingestion of contaminated poultry products. However, based on recent studies chicken egg yolk antibody (IgY) powder has great potential to reduce the cecum load of Campylobacter jejuni (C.

Department of Medical Laboratory Science, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, Liwa College, Abu Dhabi, UAE.
Proper identification and management of post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL) and canine leishmaniasis (CanL) cases are among the prerequisites to the effective control of visceral leishmaniasis worldwide. Unlike PKDL, CanL still awaits effective improvement because of its cryptic nature, absence of parasites in lesions or lymph nodes and not complete sensitivity of some diagnostic tools in use. Because of the need for certain skills and equipment, both the liquid direct agglutination test and freeze-dried direct agglutination test (FD-DAT) versions are, in comparison with the indirect immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT) or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), practical and feasible diagnostic alternatives.
