Background: Pleural effusions frequently occur in hematologic disorders. The diagnosis of this entity is extremely challenging, as traditional techniques, such as pleural fluid cytology and pleural biopsy, have a low diagnostic yield. In addition, a growing number of evidence suggests that the appearance of a pleural effusion leads to a worse prognosis. The aim of this work is to provide a non-systematic review of haematological pathologies more frequently associated with a pleural effusion, the diagnostic challenges and treatment options. Methodology: This revision work is the result of a critical analysis of the existing literature, carried out by collecting the main bibliographic entries in different languages present in international scientific databases relative to the topic of interest. All the arguments have been elaborated by the authors and critically re-proposed, in a non-systematic way (narrative revision).

Background: People with sickle cell disease (SCD) seek health care services quite often as the condition is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed diversion of health care attentions and resources from the usual demands. COVID-19 cases have occupied health care facilities, providers as well as care planners. This has affected the already dire state of SCD management in Sub Sahara Africa (SSA). It is necessary to look at options that have been examined and demonstrated to reduce the prevalence of SCD. The purpose of this review is to present prospects and methods that could be useful in reducing prevalence of SCD. Methodology: The aims of the review were to document and discuss the methods that have been applied to reduce the prevalence of SCD so as to prospect for use in SSA. A review of the literature and targeting studies, presentations and information on control of SCD. The sources used were PubMed, PubMed Central, Google Scholar, and African Index Medicus. Bases of selection were any aspect of control of SCD by educational, counseling, awareness, prevention, testing and providing information. The prospects are explored, discussed and presented in this article.
背景:镰状细胞病(SCD)患者经常寻求医疗保健服务，因为这种疾病与高发病率和死亡率有关。COVID-19大流行的出现导致医疗保健注意力和资源从通常的需求中转移。COVID-19病例占据了卫生保健设施、提供者和护理规划人员。这影响了撒哈拉以南非洲(SSA)本已严峻的SCD管理状况。有必要研究已经经过检验和证明的减少SCD患病率的选择。本综述的目的是提出可能有助于降低SCD患病率的前景和方法。方法:本综述的目的是记录和讨论已用于减少SCD患病率的方法，以便展望在SSA中的应用。综述了SCD控制的文献和靶向研究、报告和信息。使用的来源是PubMed, PubMed Central, Google Scholar和African Index Medicus。选择的基础是通过教育、咨询、意识、预防、检测和提供信息来控制SCD的任何方面。本文对其前景进行了探讨和展望。

Blood stream infection (BSI) and sepsis are life threatening conditions and early identification of pathogen with prompt intervention is important for patient management. Need for early diagnosis of sepsis has incredibly boosted the research for innovative biomarkers. The cellular and morphological characterization of cells is an indispensable part of hematology workup. The automated hematology analyzers are being routinely used for total cell counts and differential leukocyte analysis. But technological advancements in automated hematology analyzers have paved the way for many additional parameters which are capable of providing extended information to help clinicians and laboratory professionals. This review emphasizes the application of additional innovative parameters reported by modern hematology analyzers as a tool for early recognition of sepsis with impact on clinical practice.

Several studies in Malaria endemic areas have reported conflicting observations on Blood Group ABO association with placental Malaria and pregnancy outcome. The purpose of this study is to determine the association between Placental Malaria and Blood Group O in the Munuki Primary Health Care Centre in South Sudan. Material and Methods: This was a prospective study. Each pregnant lady was enrolled after signing of informed consent and meeting study entry criteria. In all 589 pregnant women were evaluated. For each done were; ABO phenotype ones, at the enrolment and testing for malaria in and twice in the cause of pregnancy. Peripheral blood malaria parasites testing were by using RDT test to describe the type of plasmodium species. Results: The 589 enrolled were as follows; 154 (32.6%), 124 (26.3%) and 182 (38.6%) primigravidae, secundigravidae and multigravidae, respectively. The ABO distribution was; 124 (A), 59 (B), 14 (AB) and 257 (O). Negative peripheral Malaria parasites for pregnant women at ANC have higher positive Peripheral Malaria at DR with OR 2.93 CI (1.78__4.88) and ANC positive Malaria cases had higher chances of become positive during delivery OR 0.43 CI (0.30___0.62). Blood group O and peripheral malaria at DR with OR 1.17 CI (0.92___1.48) and Other Blood group at DR with OR 0.84 CI (0.67___1.06). Blood group O participants had higher P. Falciparum 60 /106 accounts for 56.6%. These results revealed significance interaction effect of Placental Malaria Parasites in Blood group O in Munuki Primary Health Center in Juba-South Sudan. This study recommends usage of protective measures against malaria during pregnancy.
