Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH): An acquired blood disease where the immune system attacks red cells due to a mutation in the X chromosome.
Warm Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (warm AIHA)
Warm AIHA: Immune system attacks red blood cells, causing anemia. Symptoms include fatigue, pallor, and jaundice. Treatment targets immune suppression.
Cold Agglutinin Disease
Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD) is a rare autoimmune anemia. Cold-reactive antibodies destroy red blood cells, causing fatigue, cold sensitivity, and anemia.

Hemoglobinuria: Overview and Causes
Hemoglobinuria: Red urine from free hemoglobin, not whole RBCs. Signals serious issues like hemolysis. Prompt diagnosis is vital.

Hematuria (Blood in Urine): Overview & Causes
Hematuria: Blood in urine, gross (visible) or microscopic. Could signal infection, stones, or more serious issues.

Neonatal Jaundice (High Bilirubin Levels in Newborns)
Neonatal jaundice is a common condition in newborns causing yellowing of the skin and eyes due to excess bilirubin in the blood. It can be caused by various factors, including immature liver function and certain medical conditions. While often harmless, severe cases can lead to complications.
Jaundice (Hyperbilirubinemia)
Jaundice, a condition characterized by yellowing of the skin and eyes, is caused by hyperbilirubinemia, an abnormally high level of bilirubin in the blood. It can be a symptom of various liver or biliary tract diseases.
Thalassemia
Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder causing reduced hemoglobin production. Symptoms include fatigue, weakness, and jaundice. Treatment involves blood transfusions, iron chelation, and bone marrow transplants.
Severe Malarial Anemia
Malaria, a mosquito-borne illness, can cause severe anemia (low red blood cells) leading to weakness & fatigue. While most malaria cases are mild, severe anemia requires prompt medical attention.
