Development and evaluation of trigger tools to identify pediatric blood management errors
DISCUSSION: It is feasible to automatically detect pediatric PBM errors using existing data captured in the EHR that enable active surveillance systems. Over-transfusions may be one of the most frequent causes of harm in the pediatric environment.PMID:38557324 | DOI:10.2450/BloodTransfus.606 (Source: Blood Transfusion)

Genomic characterisation of clinically significant blood group variants in Aboriginal Australians
In this study, we applied next-generation sequencing and analysis to 245 samples obtained from Aboriginal Australians from South-East Queensland, to predict antigen phenotypes for 36 blood group systems.RESULTS: We report potential weak antigens in blood group systems RH, FY and JR that have potential clinical implications in transfusion and pregnancy settings. These include partial DIII type 4, weak D type 33, and Del RHD (IVS2-2delA). The rare Rh phenotypes D+ C+ E+ c- e+ and D+ C+ E+ c+ e- were also detected.DISCUSSION: The comprehensive analyses of blood group genetic variant profiles identified in this study will prov...

Platelet rich plasma for facial rejuvenation: an overview of systematic reviews
This article aims to review the literature and critically appraise the available evidence regarding the efficacy and safety of PRP for facial rejuvenation.MATERIAL AND METHODS: An overview of systematic reviews (SRs) of PRP use for facial rejuvenation. The methodological quality of the SRs was assessed using the AMSTAR-2 checklist; quality of the evidence from the trials included in each SR was appraised following the GRADE approach.RESULTS: Thirteen SRs published between 2015 and 2023, reporting data from 114 overlapping reports, based on 28 individual primary studies (18 uncontrolled reports), were included in this umbre...
