- Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC, ISTH scoring, consumptive coagulopathy)
- Hemochromatosis (iron overload, HFE mutations, phlebotomy)
- Hemophilia (factor VIII/IX deficiency, emicizumab, gene therapy)
- Polycythemia Vera (JAK2 V617F, myeloproliferative neoplasm, ruxolitinib)
- Sickle Cell Disease (HbS, vaso-occlusive crises, hydroxyurea)
- Thalassemia (alpha and beta, transfusion-dependent, iron chelation)
- Thrombocytopenia (ITP, HIT, TTP, platelet transfusion thresholds)
