Background: Although Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSC) donation through bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) are usually safe procedures, adverse events are expected. One of the most common events especially among BM donors (BMD) is the development of anemia. To protect the BMD and preserve the hemoglobin levels, many centers collect autologous pre-procedure blood, but the actual benefits of this procedure is controversial.

Methods And Materials: This study analyzed retrospectively data to observe what factors may influence the occurrence of post-donation anemia and also evaluate the relevance of autologous red blood cell pre procedure donation (PAD).

Results: The development of immediately post donation anemia (IP) was higher in BMD than in PB donors (64.2% BMD and 10.7% PBD, P < .001) and also in late post donation (LP) (28.4% BMD and 3.6% PBD, P = .007). The study demonstrated an association between PAD and anemia in IP (72.7% with anemia and 27.3% without anemia, P = .006) and an association between the volume of red blood cells in the donated hematopoietic product and the development of anemia in LP (356.3 mL and 297.8 mL, P = .037).

Conclusion: In conclusion, collection of HSC through BM is a risk factor for anemia and PAD is a risk factor for IP anemia.

Background: The symptoms, comorbidities and treatment burden associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD) can be debilitating and limit life participation in patients with CKD not requiring kidney replacement therapy (KRT). The aim of this study was to identify the characteristics, content and psychometric properties of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used to assess life participation in patients with CKD.

Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO and CINAHL from database inception to February 2023 for all studies that reported life participation in patients with CKD (stages 1-5 not requiring kidney replacement therapy).

Managing acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients with a recent history of gastrointestinal bleeding presents a unique and challenging clinical dilemma, necessitating a careful balance between minimizing ischemic risk and avoiding potentially life-threatening rebleeding. Standard treatment for ACS typically involves dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) to prevent recurrent thrombotic events. However, in patients with recent gastrointestinal hemorrhage or significant anemia, these therapies may substantially increase the risk of life-threatening bleeding, complicating the decision-making process and often leading to conservative management strategies.

Background And Aims: Intestinal parasitic infection is a common disease that causes significant morbidity and mortality in developing countries, including Ethiopia. The burden of intestinal parasites is worse in schoolchildren, which leads to absenteeism from school, lower cognitive ability, affects academic performance, and causes malnutrition and anemia. While many studies have been reported, there is a paucity of published data in Debre Markos.

Anemia is a common consequence of myelofibrosis. The treatment of myelofibrosis-associated anemia is complicated by a multifactorial pathobiology, as well as a lack of therapies that result in normalization of the bone marrow and complete restoration of its function. Established agents that are used to treat anemia in other bone marrow failure states such as myelodysplastic syndromes and aplastic anemia, are used for the treatment of myelofibrosis-associated anemia.

Background: The coexistence of sickle cell anemia and multiple sclerosis in a single patient presents a rare and challenging clinical scenario, possibly favoured by the interplay between chronic inflammatory states and autoimmune processes.

Methos/results: We present the case of a 36-year-old woman with sickle cell anemia who developed progressive neurological symptoms leading to frequent falls and paraparesis; magnetic resonance imaging showed many periventricular, infratentorial, and both cervical and dorsal spinal cord lesions, leading to a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. After a multidisciplinary approach the patient was successfully started on ofatumumab.
