Abatacept or tocilizumab after rituximab in rheumatoid arthritis? An exploratory study suggests non-response to rituximab is associated with persistently high IL-6 and better clinical response to IL-6 blocking therapy.

Das S1, Vital EM, Horton S, Bryer D, El-Sherbiny Y, Rawstron AC, Ponchel F, Emery P, Buch MH.Author information 1Leeds Institute of Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Medicine, University of Leeds, , Leeds, UK.AbstractOBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different targeted approaches-abatacept or tocilizumab-after rituximab therapy in rheumatoid arthritis, and to explain observed difference in efficacy using blood and synovial studies of interleukin 6 (IL-6) and B cells in patients receiving rituximab therapy.

Relation of Coronary Collateral Circulation With Red Cell Distribution Width in Patients With Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

Tanboga IH1, Topcu S, Nacar T, Aksakal E, Kalkan K, Kiki I, Sevimli S.Author information 11Department of Cardiology, Heart Center, Ataturk University Medical School, Erzurum, Turkey.AbstractObjectives: We aimed to investigate the relationship between red cell distribution width (RDW) value and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Methods: The study population consisted of 322 consecutive patients with NSTEMI. The patients were classified into impaired CCC (group 1, Rentrop grades 0-1) or good CCC (group 2, Rentrop grades 2-3). Baseline RDW was measured as part of the automated complete blood count. Results: The RDW values were significantly higher in patients with impaired CCC than in those with good CCC (17.2 ± 2.3 vs 14.5 ± 2.5, P < .001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, RDW (odds ratio: 1.52, 95% confidence interval: 1.30-1.78, P < .001), baseline creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), and absence of preinfarction angina were found to be the independent predictors of impaired CCC. In receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis, the RDW value >15.5 yielded an area under curve value of 0.783, with 77% sensitivity and 73% specificity. Conclusions: Our study results demonstrated that, high RDW, high CK-MB, and absence of preinfarction angina were found to be independent predictors of impaired CCC.

Quantitative detection of target cells using unghosted cells (UGCs) of DxH 800 (Beckman Coulter).

Lee W, Kim JH, Sung IK, Park SK, Oh ST, Park HH, Park YJ, Kim Y, Oh EJ, Kim M, Park HI, Han K.AbstractAbstract Background: In the Retic channel of DxH 800 (Beckman Coulter), the red blood cells (RBCs) resistant to hemoglobin clearing are counted as unghosted cells (UGCs). The aim of this study was to evaluate that the UGC is a surrogate marker for both the detection and counting of target cells. Methods: In total, 1181 samples including 22 from iron deficiency anemia (IDA) patients, 95 from jaundice, 2 from sickle cell anemia, 3 from thalassemia, 1 cord blood, and 269 from normal controls were analyzed. Slides were prepared from all samples except normal controls and target cells were counted for correlation analysis of target cell counts to UGCs. Results: The normal control samples showed 0.01% (0%-0.01%) UGCs, and the reference range was set at ≤0.02%. The IDA samples showed 0.015% (0.01%-0.03%) UGC count and 0.05% (0%-0.2%) target cell count. The jaundice samples showed 0.98% (0.1%-5.36%) UGC count, and 1.4% (0.1%-7.0%) target cell count. The two sickle cell anemia samples showed 0.41% and 3.74% UGC counts and 0.4% and 11.5% target cell counts. A cord blood sample showed 0.01% UGCs and 0% target cells. The three thalassemia samples showed 0.01%, 1.99%, and 7.82% UGC counts and 0%, 1.4%, and 15.5% target cell counts. The samples showing poikilocytosis other than target cells showed normal UGC count (≤0.02%). The positive predictive value of UGCs was 58.2% (124/213) and the negative predictive value was 96.8% (674/696). The UGC counts were well correlated to the manual target cell counts (r=0.944, p=0.000). Conclusions: This study demonstrates for the first time in the literature that a hematological parameter obtained automatically every time a reticulocyte counting is performed can be used to both screen for the presence of target cells and reliably quantify them.
