    Title translation Rodzinna hipercholesterolemia. Badanie kliniczne kluczem do sukcesu diagnostycznego.
    Abstract Familial hypercholesterolemia is a rare genetic disease, although it is amongst the commonest dyslipidemias. It characterized by raised cholesterol levels and normal triglyceride levels. Childhood presentation of familial hypercholesterolemia can cause early atherosclerotic plaque deposition in arteries and a markedly increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) at a young age. A thorough clinical examination, including identification of signs like cutaneous lesions and careful eye examination, can clinch the diagnosis.

    Abstract Background: The pediatric ICU (PICU) is a specialized area where critically sick children are managed. The mortality rates in PICUs are higher in developing countries as compared to developed nations. Many of these deaths could be prevented if very sick children were identified soon after they arrived at the health facility. Hematological indices like platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) have been frequently used in adults as indicators of mortality. However, their use in the pediatric population is limited due to a lack of validated reference intervals.
    Objective: The objective of the study is to assess the role of hematological indices in identifying adverse outcomes in terms of mortality in children admitted to the PICU.
    Materials and methods: It is a prospective, observational study done at a tertiary care hospital. All children aged one year to 12 years admitted to the PICU were enrolled in the study. A sample for complete blood count was taken within one hour of admission to the PICU. Children who had received blood products in the last two months, those on chronic medications (>two weeks) that can affect bone marrow cellularity, and known cases of hematological disorders such as megaloblastic anemia, hematological malignancies, immune thrombocytopenia, and aplastic anemia were excluded from the study. PLR, NLR, and platelets to mean platelet volume ratio (PLT/MPV) were determined and compared among the survivors and non-survivors.
    Results:  Out of 275 enrolled patients, 119 (43.3%) patients expired during the study period. While PLR had high sensitivity and NLR had high specificity (85.71% and 92.31%, respectively) for predicting mortality, none of these parameters had a good area under the curve (AUC) in our study. PLT/MPV of ≥32 had a sensitivity of 39.5% and a specificity of 56.41% for predicting mortality.
    Conclusions: Hematological parameters have been used across the world to predict ICU mortality. PLR and NLR are simple hematological biomarkers, easy to calculate, and cost-effective, and ratios are better than individual parameters. More studies and stratified samples are required to evaluate the role of hematological markers in identifying the risk of mortality in children admitted to PICUs.

    Abstract Research is an integral part of medicine. Health research aims at generating evidence for development of new medicines, procedures and tools, all of which are directed at improved patient care. Research also aims at incorporating this evidence into clinical practice by developing clinical practice guidelines and developing robust health systems including governmental policies and systems. Health research not only allows doctors to decide how to best treat patients but also empowers patients to take active role in their health.

    Abstract The role of chromosomal instability (CI) in oncogenesis is very well described in solid tumours, but there are a lack of studies on haematology malignancy, especially with multiple morphological markers. The study aims to analyze seven morphological markers of CI‐ chromatin bridges (CB), multipolar mitosis (MPM), nuclear budding (NB), micronuclei (MN), nuclear heterogeneity (NH), laggards, chromatin strings (CS) in bone marrow aspirate (BMA) and biopsy of acute leukaemia (AL), and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). It is a retrospective cross‐sectional analytical study where BMA and biopsy were reviewed for CI markers. We compared CI markers in five categories. CI markers were further correlated with clinical manifestations and outcomes of patients. The study included 54 samples of 37 patients. Overall, the median (IQR) of markers were as follows: MN 3.5 (1,7), NB 5 (1,18), MPM 1 (0,4), CB 1(0,2), Laggards 0 (0,1), and CS 2.5 (0,6). NH was noted in 65.4% of samples. All CI markers except laggards were significantly increased in B‐ALL, AML, and MDS compared to other categories. Many CI markers were significantly raised with a few clinical features. The MN, MPM, Laggard, and NH markers were significantly increased in the dead patients compared to those who survived. The study, one of the first to analyze multiple CI markers, revealed that the CI markers were significantly increased in AL and MDS patients and significantly associated with clinical manifestations and outcomes. Morphology markers of CI are valuable and cost‐effective in diagnostic strategy, type of malignancies, and assessing prognosis.
