Hematological picture of pediatric Sudanese patients with visceral leishmaniasis and prediction of leishmania donovani parasite load
This study shows that the most common bone marrow change among Sudanese VL children was increased chronic inflammatory cells (<i>n</i> = 88, 82.2%) with present macrophage hemophagocytes (<i>n</i> = 103, 96.3%). While anemia and thrombocytopenia were the most common hematological changes. These results will hopefully lead to an early diagnosis and hence better management for Sudanese pediatric patients with suspected VL.
