TL;DR: Verificamos que grande numero of doadores, tanto anti-HCV positivos quanto indeterminados, nao tiveram confirmada a presenca da infeccao pelo HCV, levando-nos a concluir that a inaptidao sorologica para hepatite C no HRU, na maioria das vezes, não correspondeu a presanca oficial no doador.

TL;DR: The findings showed that, at an appropriate dosage and under validated conditions, the irradiation of packed red blood cells in a linear accelerator is effective, inhibiting lymphocyte proliferation but without compromising the viability of the red cells.

TL;DR: The presence of the -398C/T polymorphism in the perforin gene in oncohematological patients was investigated to assess whether the presence of this polymorphism may be a risk factor for the development of hematologic malignancies.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates for the first time the existence of three new polymorphisms in perforin promoter and, contrary to what was stated, the presence of these SNPs does not alter the levels of protein expression.
