Fatigue is distressing and affects quality of life (QoL) among patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), aplastic anemia (AA), and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Limited data exist on the impact of fatigue, QoL, and related symptoms in these Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired hemolytic anemia with highly variable clinical symptoms making the diagnosis and prediction of its outcome difficult. It is caused by the expansion of a hematopoietic progenitor cell that has acquired a mutation in the X-linked
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) disorder characterized by a partial or complete deficiency of glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked membrane proteins, which leads to intravascular hemolysis. The loss of CD55 and CD59, two GPI-anchored
BACKGROUND
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is rare in children, but represents a similarly serious and chronic condition as in adults. Children with PNH frequently experience complications of chronic hemolysis, recurrent thrombosis, marrow failure, serious infections, abdominal pain,
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare acquired disorder characterized by intravascular hemolysis. Real-world experience of PNH management is largely unreported. A retrospective analysis was undertaken based on medical records from six patients with PNH [two with aplastic anemia (AA)]
A difference in clinical manifestations of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) among different races has been suggested. The aim of this study was to clarify whether the clinical characteristics of patients with PNH in the International PNH Registry differ by ethnic background. Patients, who
BACKGROUND
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired clonal disorder characterized by chronic complement-mediated hemolysis. Eculizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against the terminal complement protein C5, potently reduces chronic intravascular hemolysis. We tested the clinical
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare, life-threatening and debilitating clonal blood disorder caused by an acquired mutation in the phosphatidylinositol glycan (PIG)-A gene. In pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells, this leads to a deficiency of glycosylphosphatidylinositol
A 32-year-old man visited Kanto Teishin Hospital complaining of general fatigue in May, 1992. He had been diagnosed as having paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria since 1980, because of brownish urine in the morning. He received blood transfusion in 1980. In 1983, he was treated with medication.
BACKGROUND
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a chronic, not malignant, disease of the hematopoietic stem cells, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is a rare disease with an estimated incidence of 1.3 new cases per one million individuals per year. The treatment of PNH
A 60-year-old man, who had been diagnosed as having paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria(PNH) in 1994, was admitted to our hospital with general fatigue, and dark urine after a common-cold in January 2001. In the peripheral blood, the red blood cell count was 136 x 10(4)/microl, hemoglobin 4.0 g/dl
We report a case of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) in a 14 year-old girl presenting a cerebral arterial thrombosis. The initial diagnosis was carential anemia due to menarche following identification of slight macrocytic anemia, leucopenia and mild thrombocytopenia at routine blood
BACKGROUND
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is an acquired disorder of hemopoiesis and is characterized by recurrent episodes of intravascular hemolysis due to an increased sensitivity to complement-mediated hemolysis. Systemic lupus erythematosus with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is very
We performed a retrospective analysis to investigate the clinical characteristics and therapeutic strategies of Chinese paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) patients, and assessed the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoid in PNH patients.The clinical We herein report the first case of Mediterranean glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) variant from Bangladesh. A boy had been admitted to hospital and was diagnosed with uncomplicated Plasmodium vivax infection and treated with 30 mg/kg body weight (BW) chloroquine for 3 days and 4.8
