An elderly couple was killed in an accident. No surviving relatives are known, so their estate have been willed to chasrity. Later, a man claims that he is their child. Although friends of the couple knew that they had a son, no record of this can be found. Medical records show that the dead man was A Rh’, his wife was B Rh- and the claimant’s blood tests as O Rh’. Does it appear that his claim is valid? Justify your conclusion. A student in genetics is B’. She reports that her father is B- and her mother is O’. Give this student’s genotype for the ABO and Rh blood types.
A 27‐year‐old woman presents to her general practitioner with fatigue and easy bruising. A full blood count shows pancytopenia, and she is admitted to the hospital. The partial thromboplastin and prothrombin time (international normalized ratio) are both abnormal, and fragmented red cells are noted on blood film. Which ONE of the following is the most likely diagnosis in this case? Select one: A.Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia B.Acute promyelocytic leukaemia C.Acute myeloid leukaemia without differentiation D.Acute monoblastic leukaemia
A 2-year-old black girl is being seen by the hematologist after her pediatrician found her to be severely anemic with splenomegaly and jaundice. Her mother gives a possible history of a “blood problem” in her family but doesn’t know for sure. Her hemoglobin electrophoresis was normal, and the complete blood count (CBC) revealed a normocytic anemia. The platelet and white blood cell counts are normal. On the peripheral smear, there are many bizarre erythrocytes, including spiculated cells. A diagnosis of pyruvate kinase deficiency is made. In the RBCs of the patient described above, which of the following would be expected? And give the explanation. (3 sentences) ADP to ATP ratios would be elevated above normal. NADP+ would increase relative to NADPH. Ribulose 5-phosphate levels would decrease. NADH to NAD+ ratios would decrease. Methemoglobin levels would increase.
Select the correct answer for each question. Explain why you chose that answer as opposed to the others. In other words, explain why the other choices are incorrect. Hemolytic disease of the newborn will NOT be possible in which of the following situations listed below? If the father is Rh- If the child is type O positive If the father is Rh+ If the child is Rh+

Xin’s blood was drawn and testing was conducted. His hematocrit was 45% and white-blood cell count was 2,500 white-blood cells/mm3, with the differential showing neutrophils 65%, lymphocytes 25%, monocytes 10%. A biopsy was taken of one of the discolored lesions and cell culture. After three days of growth the cells were confirmed as coming from malignant cancerous tissue. A magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the area around the skin lesions on Xin’s inner thigh revealed enlarged lymph nodes, a sign of potential metastasis. DNA sequencing of the lesion biopsy revealed DNA consistent with human herpesvirus 8, known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, leading to the diagnosis of Kaposi’s sarcoma. - What Disorders can be ruled in and out from this diagnosis?
Melinda was working the day shift in the hematology laboratory. The laboratory’s protocol called for three levels of blood cell controls to be run at the following times: 1) at the beginning of the shift, 2) within each run of patient samples during the day and 3) any times reagents were changed. The mean for the low (abnormal) control for the red blood cell count was given as 2.00 x 10^12/L, the standard deviation was 0.15, and the confidence limit (acceptable control range) was 2.00 x 10^12/L +/- 2sd (or +/- 0.3). The first morning low control result was 2.10 (x 10^12/L). In five subsequent runs, the low control results were 2.16, 2.19, 2.20, 2.22 and 2.25. 1. Do these values represent a shift, a trend, or neither? 2. Should Melinda be concerned about these values? Explain. 3. Does Melinda need to take any action?

BACKGROUND A 2-year-old black girl is being seen by the hematologist after her pediatrician found her to be severely anemic with splenomegaly and jaundice. Her mother gives a possible history of a “blood problem” in her family but doesn’t know for sure. Her hemoglobin electrophoresis was normal, and the complete blood count (CBC) revealed a normocytic anemia. The platelet and white blood cell counts are normal. On the peripheral smear, there are many bizarre erythrocytes, including spiculated cells. A diagnosis of pyruvate kinase deficiency is made. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) can be inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, which means that a child must inherit a gene with the disease-causing mutation from both parents in order for the disorder to be inherited. The PLKR gene regulates the synthesis of the pyruvate kinase enzyme, which is located in the liver and red blood cells. Pyruvate kinase deficiency (PKD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the premature…
A male college freshman is seen at the college health service complaining of general fatigue, a sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes in his neck. A throat culture is done, and blood is drawn for hematology studies and a rapid MonoSlide test. Hematology results show a normal hemoglobin value and a slight increase in the white cell count, with many large, reactive lymphocytes seen in the differential. A rapid strep test is negative, but a second swab is cultured on sheep blood and incubated, with the result to be read in 18 hours. Result from the MonoSlide test is positive. Questions What laboratory tests could exclude or include the possible diagnoses? Why did the patient have an increased white blood count with abnormal appearing lymphocytes?
Due to a clerical error, several blood samples at a blood bank were not labeled. The three list below were conducted on each sample to identify each blood type. Test 1 = Unknown sample mixed with “anti-A” serum (contains type A antibodies) Test 2 = Unknown sample mixed with “anti-B” serum (contains type B antibodies) Test 3 = Unknown sample mixed with “anti-Rh” serum (contains type Rh antibodies) (A) When unknown sample A was tested, agglutination (clumping) of red blood cells occurred in test 1, 2 and 3. The blood type of sample A is… (B) When unknown sample B was tested, no agglutination (clumping) of red blood cells occurred in any tests. The blood type of sample B is… (C) When unknown sample C was tested, agglutination (clumping) of red blood cells occurred in test 2 and 3, but not 1. The blood type of sample C is…
