dacrocyte: Barbie Salvador

Dacrocyte or Dacryocyte is a pear-shaped or tear-shaped red blood cell that is usually seen in a broad spectrum of infiltrative disorders that disrupt the bone marrow architecture and also in extramedullary hematopoiesis.

The abnormality is thought to be due to membrane damage to the red cell during maturation in a crowded bone marrow environment, damage at the time of exit from the bone marrow and subsequent circulation through the spleen.

These cells are usually seen in disorders such as myelofibrosis, metastatic tumor in the bone marrow, extramedullary hematopoiesis, dyserythropoiesis, megaloblastic anemias, thalassemia especially in thalassemia major, acute leukemias, and in multiple myelomas.

I don't have Dacrocyte cells in my peripheral blood smear more so the diseases stated above.

A friend of mine used to call me Dacrocyte during our MedTech years hence used in the advent of this blog.

ranted out by dak at Saturday, March 07, 2009

Howkay, I was searching the web for updates regarding my cousin, Barbara "Barbie" Salvador. I found a few. She's not as popular as the other Bb. Pilipinas contestants but I think she's really werking on it, and a lot of people is actually starting to like her. According to one of my sources, since she's apparently morena, her popularity escalated more to foreign spectators. I think she's a strong contender.

Here's one of her gorgeous shots. (It makes me wonder what had happened to my genes! ROFL)

To see more of her pictures, visit her sole thread @ Missosology.info

I hope she pulls herself up more tonight! Watch the Coronation Night of Binibining Pilipinas 2009 tonight @ GMA 7.

Go Babrie!

"No greater opportunity or obligation can fall the lot of a human being than to be a physician. In the care of the suffering he needs technical skill, scientific knowledge, and human understanding, He who uses these with courage, humility and wisdom will provide a unique service for his fellow man and will build an enduring edifice of character within himself. The pgysician should ask of his destiny no more than this, and he should be content with no less." - Tinsley R. Harrison

"Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died." - Erma Bombeck

"So I went to the Doctor's yesterday. He said, "What appears to be the problem?" I said, "I keep having this dream, night after night, beautiful girls rushing towards me and I keep pushing them away." He said, "How can I help?" I said: "break my arms." - Tommy Cooper
