Acute erythrocyte leukemia (AEL) is an extremely rare form of acute myeloid leukemia (less than 1% of AML cases [1]) which is characterized by neoplastic proliferation of erythroid cells with features of maturation arrest (increased erythroblasts) and high prevalence of biallelic TP53 alterations.

The Er blood group system consists of five human red blood cell surface antigens, Er a, Er b, Er3, Er4 and Er5. [1] The incidences of Er a and Er3 are each greater than 99% of the human population, while the incidence of Er b is less than 0.01%. [2] [3] Er4 and Er5 are found at a high frequency in the general population. [1]
Primary polycythemias are myeloproliferative diseases affecting red blood cell precursors in the bone marrow. Polycythemia vera (PCV) (a.k.a. polycythemia rubra vera (PRV)) occurs when excess red blood cells are produced as a result of an abnormality of the bone marrow. [3] Often, excess white blood cells and platelets are also produced.
A diagnosis of DBA is made on the basis of anemia, low reticulocyte (immature red blood cells) counts, and diminished erythroid precursors in bone marrow. Features that support a diagnosis of DBA include the presence of congenital abnormalities, macrocytosis , elevated fetal hemoglobin , and elevated adenosine deaminase levels in red blood cells.
Red blood cell indices are blood tests that provide information about the hemoglobin content and size of red blood cells. Abnormal values indicate the presence of anemia and which type of anemia it is.
Here’s what garden and patio plants you can save for next spring. As the temperatures start to drop and sweater weather arrives, you may start to look sadly at your beautiful, lush garden plants.
The mean corpuscular volume, or mean cell volume (MCV), is a measure of the average volume of a red blood corpuscle (or red blood cell). The measure is obtained by multiplying a volume of blood by the proportion of blood that is cellular (the hematocrit), and dividing that product by the number of erythrocytes (red
