Acute hemolytic transfusion reaction (AHTR) is a rare but life-threatening complication of transfusion. We herein report a case of anti-Jkb IgM-related AHTR. Two hours after an 80-year-old man with myelodysplastic syndrome received a packed red blood cell (RBC) A+/Rh-/Jkb+/c- transfusion, he developed acute respiratory failure and a fever. Although he had tested negative in routine screening tests

BACKGROUND: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) with right anterior temporal lobe (RATL) predominant atrophy is an emerging area of interest. Recent findings by the International Working Group (IWG) have identified this subtype as having a distinct clinical profile within the FTD spectrum (Ulugut et al., 2024, A&D). However, its genetic and pathological underpinnings remain unexplored in large, mult

The robotic future is nearly here, and East Asia stands at the forefront of this shift. East Asian firms innovating in this sector are backed in various ways by governments committed to competing for leadership in robotics. This field promises to unleash heightened productivity and precision in manufacturing, while the opportunities in services are also enormous. The expanded installation of robot

From the introduction: "If you are a teacher in higher education, you are probably focused on student learning and committed to improving your teaching. Here, we introduce you to the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL), the 'inquiry into teaching and learning for the purposes of improving [it] in context and contributing to what we know about [it], in support of the broader aims of higher

Erik Olin Wright (1947–2019) var en amerikansk samhällsforskare, disputerad i sociologi och engagerad i marxistiska frågor om ojämlikhet, förtryck och möjligheterna till frigörelse genom samhällsomvandling. Hans svar var långt ifrån alltid renläriga, och att Wright inte såg något egenvärde i att noga hålla sig inom en viss tanketradition är kännetecknande för hans akademiska arbete. Själv beskrev

BackgroundPatients with advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) who undergo primary and interval debulking surgery are often anemic at diagnosis, with iron deficiency being the most common cause. The aim was to investigate whether preoperative anemia and iron deficiency impact short-term recovery.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study included 262 patients with AOC who underwent surgery at Skane University

Introduction: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is overrepresented among children and adults with obesity, but knowledge about how ADHD may affect outcomes following metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is limited. The aim of this study was to examine mental health and weight outcomes after undergoing MBS during adolescence in individuals with and without ADHD. Methods: In a multice

This review focuses on the findings of the JSH-MPN-R18 study, a retrospective analysis of 596 patients with polycythemia vera (PV) and 1,152 patients with of essential thrombocythemia (ET). Among the four sub-analyses conducted, one focused on adolescents and young adults (AYA population) with PV and ET, demonstrating that the characteristics of thrombotic events in young Japanese patients differ

China's rapid growth in electricity demand intensifies the twin challenges of water conservation and carbon reduction in a system where production and consumption are spatially mismatched. We develop a novel evaluation framework to quantify how electricity generation and interprovincial transmission redistribute “virtual” water and carbon. The method integrates national water/carbon footprints by

Radio frequency (RF) signal-based localization using modern cellular networks has emerged as a promising solution to accurately locate objects in challenging environments. One of the most promising solutions for situations involving obstructed-line-of-sight (OLoS) and multipath propagation is multipathbased simultaneous localization and mapping (MP-SLAM) that employs map features (MFs), such as vi

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted maternal, neonatal, and child health (MNCH) services in Uganda. In response, digital health tools were rapidly adopted as one of the strategies to restore service delivery. However, the experiences of MNCH professionals implementing these adaptations remain underexplored. This study aimed to explore how MNCH professionals in Uganda experienced

Localizing users and mapping the environment using radio signals is a key task in emerging applications such as reliable communications, location-aware security, and safety critical navigation. Recently introduced multipath-based simultaneous localization and mapping (MP-SLAM) can jointly localize a mobile agent and the reflective surfaces in radio frequency (RF) environments. Most existing MP-SLA

INTRODUCTION: Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a complex disorder with challenging diagnosis and management.METHODS: This cross-sectional, multi-national, web-based physician chart audit described clinical features and management of POTS, offering insights into disease burden and outcomes before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.RESULTS: Physicians (n = 153), primarily cardiologis

This article examines how lying by state agents can violate various human rights, including freedoms of opinion and expression, the right to health, and the right to participate in public affairs. The article argues that human rights law will apply regardless of whether states lie to their own people or to peoples of other states. The article also argues that lying by state agents can be justified
