Abstract
Transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM) is a unique disease occurring in Down syndrome (DS) infants from which most patients have spontaneous remission. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of TAM in a tertiary center in Thailand. We reviewed the records of 997 DS patients diagnosed between June 1993 and October 2019. From the 997 DS patients, 32 had been diagnosed with TAM. The incidence of TAM was 3.2% and an overall survival rate of 87.5%. A total of 2/28 who survived (7.1%) subsequently developed AML-DS at the ages of 2.1 and 4.5 years, respectively. The risk factors related with death included maternal multiparity, sepsis, skin bleeding, subcutaneous nodules, high WBC count, low hemoglobin, and elevated AST level.Abbreviations.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
