[How to think about the clinical classifications of acquired aplastic anemia]

Paying attention to the diagnosis and classification of acquired aplastic anemia (AA) is the basis for improving the efficacy and the guarantee for the correct exploration of the pathological mechanism, which is of great clinical and academic significance. At present, AA classification is still based on clinical characteristics, which is a historical product of academic development.It is beneficial to guide symptomatic treatment and for the onset of curative treatment. However, the clinical classification of AA cannot replace the pathological mechanism classification to guide the treatment of the root cause. The classification of the pathological mechanism of AA determines the choice of treatment strategy, and can provide a basis for the study of etiology and prevention, and is also the future research direction. Paying attention to the classification of the pathological mechanism of AA is the basis for improving the efficacy and the guarantee for the correct exploration of the pathological mechanism. Modern medicine has entered the era of "molecular targets" and "precision", and how to treat clinical classification based on clinical characteristics is an important issue faced by clinicians. When many different mechanisms of bone marrow failure isolated from AA patients can be accurately identified, that is, when the clinically diagnosed AA has been truly purified into a disease with a clear pathological mechanism, the clinical classification of AA can help to choose the root cause strategy. This article mainly focuses on how to view the clinical classification of AA for the reference of colleagues.
