In order to separate haemoglobin variants in one step, a chromatographic method using Mono S (Pharmacia) monodisperse cation exchanger was developed The separation of haemoglobins (A, S, E, D, C and F) on a short analytical column (50 X 5 mm I.D.) was accomplished in 30 min, including the regeneration, using linear buffer gradient elution (lithium chloride in 0.01 M sodium malonate, 0 to 100%). For haemoglobin A, two peaks, probably corresponding to different molecular forms, were found. This systematic double peak affected the recognition and the measurement of haemoglobins. By filling the test-tube with carbon monoxide before injecting the haemolysate, we obtained reproducible results with regard to both retention times and peak shape, and also great stability. The long-term stability and the high speed of the separation seem to be adequate for automation, making the method suitable for routine clinical laboratory-use.

Background: Hemoglobin (Hb) Hekinan is a prevalent α-globin variant frequently missed in thalassemia screening centers using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or capillary electrophoresis. This study aims to investigate the hematological and molecular characteristics of Hb Hekinan in a large cohort.
Methods: Hb variants were identified using isoelectric focusing (IEF) and HPLC.
The role of tranexamic acid and cryotherapy on acute postoperative pain and blood loss: a randomized controlled study following total knee arthroplasty.

Purpose: Blood loss and pain management are significant concerns in total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Tranexamic acid (TA) and cryotherapy have been used separately to address these issues, but their comparative effectiveness is not well studied. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous TA and cryotherapy in reducing blood loss and improving clinical outcomes after TKA.

Background: Blood loss resulting in severe anemia is the most common indication for postoperative allogenic red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. In high-income countries, the majority of transfusions is received by elderly patients. Preservatives extend the storage of RBCs, though concerns exist about potential harm from transfusing older RBCs.

Emerging evidence suggests cell exfoliation could be operating under the control of cell metabolism. It is unclear if there are associations between the concentration of exfoliated kidney proximal tubule cells (PTCs) in urine with glycemic control and complications. Our study is aimed at exploring this.

Background: Acute ischemic lesions seen on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are associated with poor intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) outcomes, but drivers for these lesions are unknown. Rapid hemoglobin decrements occur in the initial days after ICH and may impair brain oxygen delivery. We investigated whether acute hemoglobin decrements after ICH are associated with MRI ischemic lesions and poor long-term ICH outcomes.
