Delayed cerebral ischemia is a major predictor of poor outcomes in patients who suffer subarachnoid hemorrhage. Treatment options are limited and often ineffective despite many years of investigation ...

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare cause of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) caused by the dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. The diagnosis of TMA is made clinically ...

Siglecs are sialic-acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins that are mostly expressed by cells of the immune system. Siglecs can be divided into two subsets based on their sequence similarity and ...

Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is a congenital hemolytic disorder characterized by defects in the red blood cell membrane, leading to increased susceptibility to hemolysis (1). Splenectomy is typically ...
