Objective: To investigate the value of combined monitoring of hemolytic reaction indicators in the efficacy assessment of lymphomaassociated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (LAHLH) secondary to Evans syndrome (ES). Methods: One patient with LAHLH secondary to ES complicated by hemolytic crisis was enrolled. Under the premise that necessary red blood cell transfusions were administered due to severe anemia, combined dynamic monitoring was performed for the following hemolytic reaction indicators: posttransfusion hemoglobin increment, reticulocyte percentage (RET%), total bilirubin(TBil), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and direct antiglobulin test (DAT). Furthermore, based on the literature of the past five years, we analyzed the relationship between the dynamic changes of the these indicators and the response to immunosuppressive therapy. Results: During the hemolytic crisis period, the 24 hour posttransfusion hemoglobin increments were both <10 g/L after two consecutive red blood cell transfusions, indicating ineffective transfusion. After intensified immunosuppressive therapy, the hemoglobin increments reached +14 g/L and +15 g/L, respectively, after two subsequent transfusions, converting to effective transfusion. Concurrently, RET% decreased from a peak of 29.32% to 12.71%, and LDH and bilirubin improved synchronously. The combined interpretation of hemoglobin increment, dynamic RET% trends, and DAT results facilitated the distinction of the relative contributions of immune hemolysis, hemophagocytosis, and bone marrow failure to anemia. Conclusion: Under the strict premise that transfusion indications are adhered to and patient safety is ensured, combined dynamic monitoring of hemolytic reaction indicators can provide realtime, objective bedside auxiliary information for the efficacy assessment of LAHLH secondary to ES, and has certain clinical value in optimizing the timing of treatment adjustments.

Objective To analyze a case of hyperhemolytic syndrome(HHS)and explore the laboratory diagnostic method and clinical treatment strategy.Methods Serological tests such as blood typing,direct antiglobulin test(DAT),an-ti-screening and antibody identification were performed,The complete blood count(CBC),as well as hemolysis indicators such as lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)and bilirubin were tested,and the changes and progression of hemolysis were moni-tored.By using genotyping methods to test 32 common rare blood type antigens in clinical practice,the accuracy of antibody identification results was supported.Results The patient had anti-E antibodies and autoantibodies in her serum.After blood transfusion,LDH and bilirubin increased significantly,but hemoglobin dropped sharply,far lower than before transfusion,presenting with unique manifestations such as hemoglobinuria.The patient made a full recovery after treatment with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin and corticosteroids.Conclusion HHS is a rare and potentially fatal diseases,which is mainly manifested by hemolysis and severe anemia,and the hemoglobin level after blood transfusion is often lower than that before blood transfusion.This patient had typical clinical manifestations of post-transfusion hyperhemolytic reaction.After timely and correct treatment,the patient recovered completely and was discharged,accumulating valuable clinical experience for the diagnosis and treatment of such disease.

【Objective】 To evaluate the association between prophylactic plasma transfusion and postoperative bleeding rate in critically ill patients undergoing different invasive procedures. 【Methods】 The information of ICU patients who received different invasive procedures from January 2019 to December 2019 in 6 tertiary hospitals in China were retrospectively investigated. The inclusion criteria of patients were as follows: age ≥ 18 years; received invasive procedures; INR ≥ 1.5 within 72 hours before surgery. Exclusion criteria were patients with incomplete case records. The patients finally included in the study were divided into prophylactic plasma transfusion group and non-prophylactic plasma transfusion group according to their plasma transfusion status. The outcome variable was the incidence of invasive procedure-related bleeding within 48 hours after different invasive procedures. 【Results】 A total of 407 patients underwent invasive procedures, and 362 patients were finally included in this study after excluding 45 patients with incomplete case records. The proportions of prophylactic plasma transfusion in different types of invasive procedures were central venous catheterization (46/146, 31.5%), thoracentesis (13/37, 35.1%), bronchoscopy (8/31, 25.8%), tracheal intubation (9/38, 23.7%), arterial catheterization (9/50, 18.0%) and others (13/60, 21.7%). The bleeding rates showed that different invasive procedures presented no statistical difference between the groups received plasma transfusion or not. In the prophylactic plasma transfusion group, the bleeding rate of arterial catheterization (4/9, 44.4%) was the highest, but all were potential bleeding, followed by tracheal intubation (4/10, 40.0%) and central venous intubation (16/46, 34.8%), with a higher rate of significant bleeding. 【Conclusion】 Prophylactic infusion of plasma did not reduce the bleeding rate after different invasive procedures, but prospective studies are needed to further confirm the conclusion; this study also provides a certain data basis for later prospective studies.
