#Leukemias: acute vs. chronic rules of thumb
πABCDE
π΅Acute is:
βBlasts predominate
βChildren
βDrastic course
βElderly
βFew WBC's (so Fevers)
π΄Chronic is all the opposites:
βMature cells predominate
βMiddle aged
βLess debilitating course
βElevated WBC's, so not a history of fevers and infections

#Haptoglobin
is the protein that in humans is encoded by the HP gene.
In blood plasma, haptoglobin binds free hemoglobin released from erythrocytes with high affinity and thereby inhibits its oxidative activity.
