The study aims to determine the occurrence and characteristics of cold agglutinin disease in patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia.
Retrospective analysis of clinical data and laboratory parameters from 84 patients
Focus on thromboembolic complications and treatment responses
Assessment of survival rates based on anemia type and demographic factors
17% of patients had cold autoimmune hemolytic anemia; 8 had cold agglutinin disease
71% of cold agglutinin disease patients received rituximab
10-year survival rate was lower in cold-type (66.7%) compared to warm-type hemolytic anemia (82.4%)
More inherited and acquired thrombophilia risk factors detected in cold versus warm autoimmune hemolytic anemia patients
