Glycophorin prepared by a lithium di-iodosalicylate-extraction/phenol-partition method was rich in polyphosphoinositides (phosphatidyl-myo-inositol 4-phosphate and phosphatidyl-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate), but glycophorin extracted by Triton X-100 showed no such enrichment. The enrichment observed in the former preparations appeared not to be caused by pre-existing association between glycophorin and polyphosphoinositides in the human erythrocyte membrane, but to be largely a consequence of the preparative procedures.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology for identifying pathogens associated with spinal infection (SI).

Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 193 patients with suspected SI between August 2020 and September 2024. Based on histopathological results, the patients were divided into the SI group (n=162) and the non-SI group (n=31).

The study presents two imported malaria cases with a history of travel to malaria-endemic areas and replied late response to treatment. In the blood preparations of the first case, dot-shaped nucleus structures were identified in the erythrocytes, which looked different from the classical erythrocytic forms. In the SD-Pf/Pan test, bands were obtained for both P.

Objective: To observe how cognitive behavioral intervention affects physical symptoms, B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP), Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW), and C-reactive Protein (CRP) in elderly patients with heart failure.

Methods: Convenient sampling method was used to select 98 elderly heart failure patients who visited our hospital from January 2022 to December 2020. Patients were divided into a control group and an observation group using the red and blue ball method, with 49 cases in each group.

Background: Malaria remains a leading cause of death worldwide, claiming over 600,000 lives each year. Over 90% of these deaths, mostly among children under 5 years, occur in sub-Saharan Africa and are caused by Plasmodium falciparum. The merozoites stage of the parasite, crucial for asexual development invade erythrocytes through ligand-receptor interactions.

Lectins are produced in almost all life forms, can interact with targets (glycans) in a cross-kingdom manner and have served as valuable tools for studying glycobiology. Previously, a bacterial lectin, named Streptomyces hemagglutinin (SHA), was found to agglutinate human type B erythrocytes. However, the binding of SHA to mammalian cell types other than human erythrocytes has not been explored.
