In contrast, animals in the LHBI arm (1 cm above the ilieac crest to the toes) were protected against BM toxicity with no marked changes in hematological parameters and only minor gross pathology [petechiae (1/5), splenomegaly (1/5) and mild pulmonary hemorrhage (1/5)].
A 70-year-old woman with a five-year history of ET with JAK2V617F mutation treated with hydroxycarbamide for five months presented with petechiae on her limbs.
In contrast, animals in the LHBI arm (1 cm above the ilieac crest to the toes) were protected against BM toxicity with no marked changes in hematological parameters and only minor gross pathology [petechiae (1/5), splenomegaly (1/5) and mild pulmonary hemorrhage (1/5)].
However, patients with dengue infection and significant bleeding manifestations, apart from petechiae and ecchymosis, tended to have a higher frequency of the TNF-α -308A allele (11.8%, 9/76) than those without significant bleeding manifestations (5/126, 4.0%) (P = 0.056).
Low normal or higher blood levels of cortisol often with petechiae on intrathoracic organs, depleted maternal IgG antibodies to endotoxin core (EndoCAb) and early IgM EndoCAb triggered, partial deletions of the C4 gene, and frequent IL-10-592*A polymorphism in SIDS victims as well as possible hypoxia-induced decreased production of antiinflammatory, antiimmune, and antifibrotic cytokine IL-10, may be responsible for the excessive reactions to otherwise harmless infections.
Curiously, although the index patient inherited both Bernard Soulier syndrome and factor XI deficiency (FXI: C = 1.3%), he had mild bleeding symptoms restricted only to ecchymoses and petechiae.
The phenotype, reported for the first time in this extended kindred, contrasts with that of an apparently unrelated family carrying the same mutation who presented with spontaneous hepatic haemorrhage and rupture, and with the manifestations in a family with the lysozymeIle56Thr variant who presented with dermal petechiae before proceeding to fatal visceral amyloidosis.
The risk of developing RV with minor skin vasculitis (i.e., purpura or petechiae) was 10-20-fold increased in patients with DRB1*04, in particular in those homozygous for DRB1*04, and also in those with DRB1*0401.
