Exploring the Dynamics of Sleep Deprivation: Insights into Complete Blood Count and Coagulation Parameters in a Case-Control Study
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates the complex link between sleep deprivation, coagulation indicators, and complete blood count. Monitoring blood indicators in poor sleep helps explain fundamental mechanisms and medicinal implications.PMID:38665768 | PMC:PMC11045283 | DOI:10.1155/2024/1766578 (Source: Advances in Hematology)

Magnitude of Thrombocytopenia and Associated Factors among Pregnant Women Attending the Antenatal Care Service Unit of Wachemo University Nigist Ellen Mohammed Comprehensive Specialized Hospital Hosanna, Southern Ethiopia
CONCLUSION: The magnitude of thrombocytopenia in this study was 14.8%. Rural residence, cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and anemia were significantly associated with thrombocytopenia. Therefore, the platelet count should be routinely determined during antenatal care visits for proper diagnosis and to minimize bleeding during and/or after childbirth.PMID:38655566 | PMC:PMC11039013 | DOI:10.1155/2024/8163447 (Source: Advances in Hematology)

Prevalence of Stroke in Individuals with Sickle Cell Disease Pre- and during Hydroxyurea Uses: A Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study in Tanzania
Adv Hematol. 2024 Mar 19;2024:7950925. doi: 10.1155/2024/7950925. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTSickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited blood disorder that leads to a variety of complications, including stroke. The use of hydroxyurea (HU) is reported to lessen the frequency and burden of stroke in SCD patients. However, less is known about the prevalence of stroke in SCD patients pre- and during the use of HU in sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. Therefore, the study assessed stroke prevalence before and during uses of hydroxyurea among SCD patients in Tanzania. A hospital-based descriptive cross-sectional study was conduct...
