Anemia due to folic acid deficiency. (Disorders of the Red Blood Cells) (Blood Disorders)Bank, Arthur
Anemia is a disease characterized by an inadequate number of red blood cells and an insufficient level of hemoglobin, which prevents us from adequately supplying the oxygen tissues they need. There are several types of anemia, including iron deficiency anemia, linked to low ferritin values, and vi...
Sickle cell anemia. About 1 out of every 100 Latinos and 1 out of every 12 African-Americans have the sickle cell trait, meaning those populations are much more greatly affected by sickle cell anemia than others. Stress can lead to health problems due to carrying the sickle cell trait. Vita...
These blood cells are caused due to genes inherited from your parents. Since the formation of red blood cells is reduced, they can't carry oxygen to different organs in the body. These sickle cells can be pretty rigid and sticky. Though it is an inherited condition, we will help you ...
Anemiais characterized by a reduction in the number of circulating red blood cells (RBCs), the amount of hemoglobin, or the volume of packed red blood cells (hematocrit). Anemia is classified as acute or chronic. Acute anemia denotes a precipitous drop in the RBC population due to hemolysis ...
Due to the deficiency of Vitamin B-12, our body produces comparatively sizeable red blood cells. These are known by the name ‘Macrobytes.’ Due to their relatively larger size, they cannot leave the bone marrow where the red blood cells are made and enter one’s bloodstream. All this ult...
[13] used data in one time examination but across different ages and indicated the difference of children’s ferritin levels across hypertension and normal groups was not observed after the age of 12 month. Conflicting results may be due to the heterogeneity of population and study design. The ...
Blood loss during and after delivery can also cause anemia. Risk Factors for Anemia in Pregnancy All pregnant women are at risk for becoming anemic. That's because they need more iron and folic acid than usual. But the risk is higher if you: ...
