We identify issues that cannot be addressed by conventional analysis of clinical trials and ask whether it is possible to develop a refined analysis to conclude about the outcome of individual patients given clinical trial results. To accomplish this, we propose an interdisciplinary approach based on mathematical modeling. We devise and calibrate a mathematical model of short-term reconstitution and simulate treatment of large patient groups with random interindividual variation. Relating model simulations to clinical data allows quantifying the effect of transplant size on reconstitution time in the terms of patient populations and individual patients. The model confirms the existence of lower bounds on cell dose necessary for secure and efficient reconstitution but suggests that for some patient subpopulations higher thresholds might be appropriate. Simulations demonstrate that relative time gain because of increased cell dose is an ‘interpersonally stable’ parameter, in other words that slowly engrafting patients profit more from transplant enlargements than average cases. We propose a simple mathematical formula to approximate the effect of changes of transplant size on reconstitution time.

  • White Blood Cells)
    Lec.4 Medical Physiology – Blood Physiology Z.H.Kamil Leukocytes (White Blood Cells) Leukocytes are the only formed elements that are complete cells, with nuclei and the usual organelles. Accounting for less than 1% of total blood volume, leukocytes are far less numerous than red blood cells. On average, there are 4800–10,800 WBCs/μl of blood. Leukocytes are crucial to our defense against disease. They form a mobile army that helps protect the body from damage by bacteria, viruses, parasites, toxins, and tumor cells. As such, they have special functional characteristics. Red blood cells are kept into the bloodstream, and they carry out their functions in the blood. But white blood cells are able to slip out of the capillary blood vessels in a process called diapedesis and the circulatory system is simply their means of transport to areas of the body (mostly loose connective tissues or lymphoid tissues) where they mount inflammatory or immune responses. The signals that prompt WBCs to leave the bloodstream at specific locations are cell adhesion molecules displayed by endothelial cells forming the capillary walls at sites of inflammation. Once out of the bloodstream, leukocytes move through the tissue spaces by amoeboid motion (they form flowing cytoplasmic extensions that move them along). By following the chemical trail of molecules released by damaged cells or other leukocytes, a phenomenon called positive chemotaxis, they pinpoint areas of tissue damage and infection and gather there in large numbers to destroy foreign substances and dead cells. Whenever white blood cells are mobilized for action, the body speeds up their production and their numbers may double within a few hours.

SIGNIFICANCE OF PEROXIDASE IN EOSINOPHILS M a rg a ret A . K e lsa ll Peroxidase-bearing granules are the primary component and product of eosino­ phils. The physiological significance of eosinophils is, therefore, considered to be related to the ability of this cell to synthesize, store, and transport peroxidase and to release the peroxidase-positive granules into body fluids by a lytic process that is controlled by hormones, by variations in the histamine-epinephrine balance, and by several other stimuli. Peroxidase occurs not only in eosinophils, but also in neutrophils and blood platelets; but it is not present in most cells of animal tissues. The purpose of this work is to consider, as a working hypothesis, that the function of eosinophils is to produce, store, and transport peroxidase to catalyze oxidations. Many of the aerobic dehydrogenases that catalyze reactions in which hydrogen peroxide is produced are involved in protein catabolism. Therefore, relations between eosinophils and several normal and pathological conditions of increased protein catabolism are emphasized, and also the significance of peroxi­ dase in eosinophils and other leukocytes to H 20 2 produced by irradiation is considered.

Abstract Although drug-induced hematologic disorders are less common than other types of adverse reactions, they are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Some agents, such as hemolytics, cause predictable hematologic disease, but others induce idiosyncratic reactions not directly related to the drug’s pharmacology. The most important part of managing hematologic disorders is the prompt recognition that a problem exists. The main mechanisms to manage hematologic disorders include vigilance to observe signs and symptoms indicating a blood disorder and patient education of the warning symptoms to alert them of the need to report a condition to their primary care provider or an emergency health team.

Wolff J Clin Invest. 1972;51(8):2190-2196. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI107026. Research Article 12 grey collie dogs had cyclic neutropenia with the neutropenia recurring at 11.8±0.1-day intervals. The recovery from neutropenia was accompanied by a single wave of myeloid proliferation, an increase in marrow myeloid-labeling indices, and an increase in serum muramidase levels. After recovery from neutropenia during the period when blood neutrophils (PMN) were normal or increased, marrow myeloid precursors became scarce. The decline in marrow precursors and marrow PMN reserves heralded the recurrence of neutropenia. Neither diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DF32P) leukokinetic studies nor the rate of development of neutropenia suggested shortened PMN survival as a mechanism for the neutropenia. These studies indicate that the cyclic neutropenia is due to a regularly recurring failure in PMN production.

Study Design: Randomized controlled trial. Place and Duration of Study: It was conducted at Department of Physiology, Foundation University Medical College, in collaboration with National Institute of Health, Islamabad, from February 2013 to June 2014. Material and Methods: Out of 130 Sprague-Dawley rats, 10 were used for baseline sampling and rest was randomly divided into four groups. Group I received ghrelin only while group II and III were administered intraperitoneally with both carboplatin and 5-flurouracil with and without rat ghrelin. Group IV in addition to chemotherapy and ghrelin received growth hormone releasing hormone antagonist (GHRH antagonist). Total leukocyte count, differential leukocyte count and growth hormone levels were measured on day 7 and 14. Results: The fall in leukocyte count of chemotherapy and ghrelin group on day 7 was less as compared to the chemotherapy-only treated group and chemotherapy, ghrelin and growth hormone releasing hormone antagonist treated group (p<0.05). Further decreases were also prevented in the chemotherapy and ghrelin group. The serum growth hormone levels in chemotherapy and ghrelin treated group were higher as compared to the chemotherapy and chemotherapy, ghrel in, GHRH antagonist treated group (p< 0.05).
