...Yanping Shao; Wenda Luo; Haiyan Xu; Li Zhang; Qunyi Guo Introduction: This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to explore the influence of ferumoxytol versus placebo on iron deficiency anemia. Methods: We search for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the effect of ferumoxytol...

...A.S. Shet; S.M. Pinto; G. Mitra; A.K. Mandal There are few good biomarkers of iron deficiency anemia (IDA). Since IDA patients have evidence for increased oxidative stress, we used mass spectrometry (MS) [i.e. matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) and electrospray ionization...

...Chaim Hershko; Aharon Ronson Despite elegant regulatory mechanisms, iron deficiency anemia (IDA) remains one of the most common nutritional deficiencies of mankind. Iron deficiency is the result of an interplay between increased host requirements, limited external supply, and increased blood loss...

...J. Steiner; H.R. Marti; D. Dean A comparison of the Hb A 2 concentration in 100 patients with iron deficiency anemia and 100 healthy adults shows a significant decrease in cases with iron deficiency (p = < 0.05). The mean value was 1.8% for the iron deficient patients and 2.3% for controls...

...G. Hiçsönmez; K. Süzer; G. Süloglu; S. Dönmez Platelet count was evaluated in 30 children with iron deficiency anemia. It was found elevated when compared with 40 normal controls. No significant difference was found between the platelet counts in patients with hemoglobin levels higher or lower than...

... is measured on the 14th day, this amount being equivalent to the amount absorbed. In our male group, the mean absorption of inorganic iron was 22.5 ± 8%, and in females it was 43.3 ± 11%. In 10 patients with iron deficiency anemia, the mean was 92.2 ± 6%, in 10 with gastric achylia it was 4.6 ± 4%, and in 12...

... on starch-block electrophoresis. The utility of microchromatography as a routine Hb A 2 assay and as a screening method to detect β -thalassemia trait carriers and patients with iron deficiency anemia was investigated. Day-to-day variation of a control hemolysate and the correlation between the values...

...Nelly Avissar; Yehuda Farkash; Mali Shaklai Fifteen cytoplasmic erythrocyte enzyme activities were determined in patients with polycythemia vera (PV), iron deficiency anemia (IDA), and a group of healthy volunteers. Among the PV patients, the erythrocyte enzyme activities were compared between 2...

...H. Turgeon-O’Brien; J. Amiot; L. Lemieux; J.-C. Dillon Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was studied in adults with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) or anemia of chronic disorders (ACD). MPO activity (biochemical quantitation) was found to be decreased in IDA when compared to the control group (p...

...Seiji Kojima; Kouji Matsuyama; Eiichi Ishii Recent study has shown that the human parvovirus (HPV) is a causative agent of aplastic crisis in hemolytic anemias. In subjects without shortened red blood cell life span, HPV is not associated with symptomatic anemia. A case of iron deficiency anemia...

... and iron deficiency anemia, using in vitro erythroid progenitor assays. Although serum levels of Epo activity increased in the presence of anemia, the rise was more marked in patients with aplastic anemia. BPA was high only in the sera of aplastic anemia patients. Serum levels of BPA of patients...

...P. Samperi; R. Testa; M. Mancuso; G. Schilirò Hb A 2 was determined in 477 subjects: 77 were affected by iron deficiency anemia, 172 were carriers of β -thalassemia trait and 228 were normal controls. Hb A 2 was determined by both DE-52 microchromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography...

...P.C. Santos; R.P. Falcão Lymphocyte subsets and K-cell activity were evaluated in the peripheral blood of 21 patients with iron deficiency anemia. The results showed that the mean number of total lymphocytes, CD3 and CD4 subsets, and B lymphocytes were decreased in these patients. The K-cell...

...Sevgi Yetgin; Filiz Hincal; Nurşen Baçaran; Gönenc Ciliv Serum selenium concentration was investigated in 40 children with iron deficiency anemia and in 40 control subjects matched for age, sex and geographical origin. A spectrofluorometric method was used for determination of the selenium level...

...Luis Sánchez-Medal; Alvar Lori Erythrocyte production was measured in 21 iron deficiency anemia patients after therapy with parenteral iron. The red cell mass was measured twice with 51 Cr and red blood cell survival by labeling with 51 Cr. In all cases, erythrocyte production increased in the 12 h...

...Saadet Akarsu; Mehmet Kilic; Erdal Yilmaz; Mustafa Aydin; Erdal Taskin; A. Denizmen Aygun The prevalence rates of hypoferritinemia (IDec/one abnormal indicator), iron deficiency (IDef/two abnormal indicators) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in children who were referred to the outpatient clinics...

...) and serum ferritin levels were measured. Iron sucrose was used as an intravenous iron preparation. Results: All children showed improvements in iron deficiency anemia. A statistically significant elevation occurred between the time of diagnosis and week 1 (p<0.05) in nearly all parameters. SI was raised...

...Hamdi Akan; Nilüfer Güven; İsmet Ayogdu; Mutlu Arat; Meral Beksaç; Klara Dalva Iron deficiency anemia is a cause of reactive thrombocytosis. A moderate increase in platelet numbers is common but sometimes counts may exceed 1,000 × 10 9 /l. The mechanisms causing reactive thrombocytosis are unclear...
