Inefficacy of intravenous immunoglobulin in patients with low-risk thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura/hemolytic-uremic syndrome.

abstract：:In patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), 34 out of 35 patients (97%) had cytochemically abnormal polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN). Some interesting regularity was noted in the appearance of cytochemical abnormalities of the PMNs. When peroxidase (PO) activity was low, both alkaline phosphatase (AP) and ch...
