Background: Peripheral erythrophagocytosis appears to be a unique sign of acquired immune-mediated hemolytic anemia. It is said to be rare but its prevalence among patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia has not been studied.
Methods: In this retrospective study from July 2014 to June 2024, the clinical and laboratory features, treatment and outcomes of children diagnosed with autoimmune hemolytic anemia were described.

In this work, we show how shape matters for the ordering of red blood cells (RBCs) at a water-air interface for both artificially rigidified and sphered cells as a model system for hereditary spherocytosis. We report enhanced long-range order for spherical RBCs over disk-shaped RBCs arising from the increased local ordering of spheres relative to disks. We show that rigidity has a greater effect on the radial distribution of spherical vs disk-shaped RBCs by slightly increasing the average distance between cells.

Chronic hemolysis potentially elevates the risk of gallstones in several types of congenital red blood cell (RBC) disorders. However, the magnitude of the risk is unknown. We investigate the risk of gallstone disease in congenital RBC disorder patients, compared with general population comparators.
