(e.g., iron, vitamin B12 and folic acid), which might be involved in the pathogenesis and morphologic features of the anemia. However, nutritional deficiencies alone cannot explain this phenomenon in all cases. In fact, anemia of chronic disease (ACD) or anemia of chronic inflammation could ...

Another common cause of anemia is called anemia of chronic disease. This could typically occur in individuals with longstanding chronic diseases. Some medications can cause anemia in a variety of ways. Human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) can cause anemia....
anemia of chronic disease -called anemia of inflammation -cytokines sequester iron away from the blood stream by increasing hepcidin (regulator of iron metabolism) which decreases iron absorption in gut, iron export out of hepatocytes, and transferrin in TIBC in inflammatory states which all leads to...
Anemia of chronic disease (ACD) and thalassemia are to be considered as differential diagnoses. Disorders of vitamin B12 and folic acid metabolism are clinically the most important causes of hyperchromic-macrocytic anemia. The normochromic-normocytic group includes most forms of anemias. In these ...
