Background/Objectives: Understanding blood group antigen distribution is essential for transfusion safety and preventing alloimmunization in transfused patients. The ABO, RH1, and Kell blood group systems are among the most clinically significant due...

Background: Malignant lymphomas are among the most common hematological neoplasms and include a heterogeneous group of entities characterized by distinct morphology, immunophenotype, genetics, and clinical features. Recent advances in molecular diagn...

Background/Objectives: Complete blood count (CBC)-derived markers such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) have gained increasing attention as accessible indicators o...

Introduction: Disease knowledge and health literacy are important health competencies that individuals with chronic conditions like Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) need for self-management. This study aimed to: (I) describe and compare SCD knowledge and he...

Imatinib (IMT) is a small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that primarily targets platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β and related kinases. Beyond its established efficacy in chronic myeloid leukemia, IMT has also demonstrated therapeutic...

This article represents a brief overview of the recent achievements in the treatment of multiple myeloma. New opportunities and treatment challenges are discussed in the context of risk factors regarding outcomes. The options for specific targeted tr...

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy, typically presenting with systemic symptoms and mediastinal involvement. Leukemia cutis (LC) and renal infiltration are rare, especially at disease onset. A 27-year-...

Introduction: Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a hereditary hemoglobinopathy caused by a mutation in the beta-globin gene, resulting in the production of hemoglobin S. Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe complication for patients with SCA, but there...

Background: Haemoglobinopathies are among the most common monogenic disorders worldwide. Early identification of asymptomatic carriers through reliable screening and molecular diagnostics is crucial for prevention programmes, especially in high-preva...

Background/Objectives: Erythrocyte alloimmunization is a critical complication impacting the efficacy of transfusion therapy in patients with thalassemia. This study seeks to evaluate the prevalence, characterization, and determinants of erythrocyte...
