Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections pose significant global health concerns, contributing to chronic liver diseases. Blood transfusion is identified as a potential route for the transmission of these viruses, necessitating effective screening strategies for blood donors. The aim of this study was to assess the significance of nucleic acid testing (NAT) in detecting HBV and HCV infections among blood donors who initially tested negative in serological tests.

A unified consensus on the optimal transfusion hemoglobin concentration threshold is needed to improve outcomes. This study investigated the effects of different transfusion thresholds during hospitalization on the prognosis of patients with sepsis and renal failure.

Existing systems for predicting MT need in trauma patients have not been systematically evaluated for their relevance to the geriatric population. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive accuracy of initial vital signs and the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) in geriatric trauma patients for predicting MT.

Methods: Serological and molecular biology methods were used to detect one case of ABO blood type.
Background: Alloantibodies for the Rh blood group are the most immunogenic antibodies found in the Chinese population, typically causing acute or delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions and fetal and neonatal hemolytic diseases. Autoantibodies are generally considered nonspecific, and approximately 50% of warm antibodies are secondary to a variety of diseases, especially hematologic tumors. In this case report, a rare autoantibody that mimics anti-C and anti-e specificity was identified.
