The majority of patients with SCD receive transfusions at some point in their life. Transfusion can be simple transfusion or exchange transfusions which offer better control of blood volume and viscosity. Such transfusions are most readily accomplished via automated red cell exchange. Evaluate the results of our experience in applying the technique of selective cell separation by continuous flow (Cytapheresis) for automated red cell exchange for patients with sickle cell anemia to reduce the level of hemoglobin S (HbS) in certain cases, especially in preparation for major surgery.

This study aims to show the effectiveness of hydroxyl urea in the treatment of severe forms of sickle-cell anemia. The study included 30 patients from patients with sickle cell anemia and who reviewed the Blood clinics in AL- Assad University Hosp ital . We had studied patients treated with hydroxy urea for at least 6 months, where it was compared to blood and clinical variables before and after hydroxy urea treatment. The results showed an improvement in blood and clinical manifestations , and it was noted a significant increase in the level of fetal hemoglobin, and a decrease in the level of hemoglobin and sickle cell after hydroxy urea treatment. hydroxy urea treatment also led to a clear increase in the level of total hemoglobin, and a decrease in the value of total bilirubin. Decrease in the number of the pain episodes that needed hospitalization, and the number of times of blood transfusion after treatment, too.
Objective: Evaluate sensitivity and specificity of nitrite test to urine culture(gold standard) for diagnosing urinary tract infection in patients with sickle cell anemia with urinary symptoms and signs. Methods: The study sample included 79 chi ldren aged 2 to 14 years with SCA presenting with fever (temperature >38°C),abdominal pain, urgency, dysuria or increased urinary frequency who referral to the general pediatric clinic and the children's ambulance department in Tishreen University Hospital in Lattakia during( 2016-2017). Midstream urine specimen was collected from children. Samples were subjected to nitrite test, culture and sensitivity. Results : There was significant bacteriuria in 17 (21.5%) children with SCA. A positive test for nitrite was obtained in 12 of the 17(70.5%) children. The nitrite test has a specificity of 95.2% in detecting bacteriuria, a sensitivity of 70.6%, a positive predictive value of 80% and a negative predictive value of 92%. A positive nitrite test was significantly associated with bacteriuria, while a negative test was also significantly associated with an absence of bacteriuria.
The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether a relationship exists between bilirubin, RDW, and prognostic factors for gastric cancer (tumor stage - tumor markers). Methods: The study included 112 individuals admitted to Tishreen Univer sity Hospital and the Oncology Center in Latakia during the period between July 2018 and December 2019. They were distributed into two groups as follow: the group of gastric cancer patients included 56 patients (33 males and 23 females) between the ages of 37 and 83 years, and the control group included 56 individuals (34 males and 22 females) between the ages of 37 and 80 years. The stage of gastric cancer was evaluated based on the AJCC (American Joint Committee on Cancer) cancer staging system. Patients were interrogated, and social and behavioral information were obtained, then venous blood samples were obtained for biomedical evaluation. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 25 software. Results: Bilirubin and RDW were significantly associated with the prognostic factors of gastric cancer. RDW was positively associated with the tumor stage and tumor markers (CEA and CA19-9). Total bilirubin (TBIL) and indirect bilirubin (IBIL) were negatively associated with these factors, while direct bilirubin (DBIL) showed no significant association. Patients with gastric cancer had higher RDW than healthy controls, while total bilirubin (TBIL) and indirect bilirubin (IBIL) were significantly decreased. The results of our study indicate that both RDW and bilirubin could be potential prognostic factor for gastric cancer.
This study included 502 children between 0,5-15 years old. They were all subjected to duodenal biobsy for several reasons, and underwent investigations; Hb, MCV, MCH, MCHC and RDW. The prevalence of celiac disease among anemic children was higher than nonanemic patients (36,04% vs 12,14%). The mean duration of compliance was higher in both anemic children and celiac patients than in comparing groups .The mean levels of Hb,MCV,MCH and MCHC were lower in celiac group, while RDW was higher. Anemia was the most common presentation of celiac disease and it was seen in 77% among celiac children, while failure to thrive was detected in 43% of celiac group. Clinicians should consider celiac disease as a possible cause of anemia in all subjects with unexplained or refractory anemia
It was used in this study (15) of the female mice . They were divided into three groups : control , and two experimental groups (five mice in each group) .The control group was given distilled water, while the first experimental group was received only Paraben daily ( 250 mg / kg of body weight). As the second experimental group was received daily together of Paraben and aqueous ginger extract ( 250 mg / kg of paraben and 250 mg / aqueous ginger extract ) for (18 ) day .
