Book excerpt: This text provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of the most common autoimmune cytopenias affecting adults and children. The book is divided into four sections, each of which focuses on a major autoimmune cytopenia. The first section features background, pathophysiology, presentation, evaluation, and treatment strategies for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), the most common cause of antibody-mediated platelet destruction. The second section reviews common forms and treatment strategies for autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), including a chapter dedicated specifically to Evans Syndrome. The third section comprehensively reviews the pathophysiology, diagnosis and current management approaches to thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), a potentially life-threatening autoimmune syndrome. The book concludes with a final section on autoimmune neutropenia. Each section includes a review of common underlying systemic autoimmune conditions and immune deficiency syndromes that can accompany or cause autoimmune cytopenias. Written by experts in each content area, Immune Hematology: Diagnosis and Management of Autoimmune Cytopenias is a valuable resource for clinicians and professionals who treat patients afflicted with autoimmune cytopenias, including primary care providers, hematologist/oncologists, immunologists, among others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ObjectivesTo have a better understanding of incidence, treatment, outcome and risk factors of immune cytopenia in children after allogeneic HSCT. MethodsBetween January 2010 and September 2018, 105 pediatric allogeneic HSCT have been performed in 99 patients at the Ghent University Hospital (Ghent, Belgium). Autoimmune hemolytic anemia was defined by a positive direct agglutinin test (DAT). DAT was performed at moment of engraftment and in case of hemolysis or unexplained anemia.Platelets antibodies were evaluated in case of no otherwise explained thrombocytopenia.ResultsThe cumulative incidence of post allo SCT autoimmune cytopenia is 9.5% (10/105). In 9 cases there were positive antibodies against red blood cells, and one patient against had antibodies against platelets. Of these 10 cases, only 4 (3.8%) were clinically relevant and needed treatment. The median observation period post SCT for the whole cohort was 36 months (3 -105). The clinically significant immune cytopenia started at a median time of day+158 and day +113 in the group without symptoms. The patient who presented the autoimmune thrombopenia developed antibodies against anti-gpIIb/IIIa, this was resolved after 130 days, the treatment consisted intravenous immunoglobulins (Ivig). Two of the 3 patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia had IgG mediated antibodies, and 1 had complement-mediated DAT. These 3 patients were treated with Ivig, steroids, Rapamune and rituximab. One patient has still DAT positive after 36 months, but clinical stable. The other two are also DAT positive and have some hemolysis, but the follow up is much shorter (2 months). Treosulfan- contained conditioning regimens were more frequently used in patients with significant immune cytopenia.Conclusion Autoimmune cytopenia is an infrequent complication after allogeneic HSCT. However, its treatment can be challenging, and the hemolysis can persist for years. The association of Rapamune and rituximab was adequate to treat this problem in our patients. Treosulfan-containing regimes should be monitored for this complication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), commonly called lupus, is a chronic autoimmune disorder that can affect virtually any organ of the body. In lupus, the body's immune system, which normally functions to protect against foreign invaders, becomes hyperactive, forming antibodies that attack normal tissues and organs, including the skin, joints, kidneys, brain, heart, lungs, and blood. Lupus is characterized by periods of illness, called flares, and periods of wellness or remission. Because its symptoms come and go and mimic those of other diseases, lupus is difficult to diagnose. There is no single laboratory test that can definitively prove that a person has the complex illness. To date, lupus has no known cause or cure. Early detection and treatment are the key to a better health outcome and can usually lessen the progression and severity of the disease. Anti-inflammatory drugs, antimalarials, and steroids (such as cortisone and others) are often used to treat lupus. Cytotoxic chemotherapies, like those used in the treatment of cancer, are also used to suppress the immune system in lupus patients. A new edition of this established and well-regarded reference combines basic science with clinical science to provide a translational medicine model. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, Sixth Edition, is a useful reference for specialists in the diagnosis and management of patients with SLE, a tool for measurement of clinical activity for pharmaceutical development and basic research of the disease, and a reference work for hospital libraries. Completely updated, revised, and expanded with the most comprehensive and accessible reference on SLE for clinicians and scientists Full-color presentation throughout the book Provides the latest information available on diagnosis and treatment Incorporates an international panel of authors who are experts in their fields, with an emphasis on young, cutting-edge scientists and physicians
