Difference between folate deficiency anaemia and B12 deficiency anaemia:
no neurological effects with folate
Myeloftistic anaemia:
bone marrow filled with malignant or other cells
What a positive direct Coombs tells us:
that the antibodies are bound to erythrocytes
What we check with the cross-test: if there are any clinically significant erythrocyte
antibodies

Lymph nodes in lymphomas are: elastic, movable, painless (possibly still hard,
non-movable, painless, but some with pain)
Description of a patient with a clinical picture of haemolytic anaemia, with no problems other than weakness, how
what do you do: do Coombs tests, give medrol (all the other options were to give
You didn’t give a transfusion here because he had an Hb of 85 and lots of reticulocytes.
