Anemia is defined by a deficiency of hemoglobin, an erythrocyte iron-rich protein that binds oxygen and allows its delivery to the organism. Anemia can be due to multiple etiologies, either acquired (such as blood losses, hematological malignancies, aplastic anemia, chronic inflammation, dietary iron...
Of the nine patients with iron deficiency anemia who were found to have colon cancer, five had been referred urgently and four as routine. The mean delay from referral to diagnosis for these was 31days for those referred urgently but 60days for those referred routinely. Conclusions Males ...
Iron deficiency impairs erythropoiesis and enhances eryptosis, resulting in anemia, whereas increased iron deposition is noted in the sub- stantia nigra of PD patients20–22. In addition, increased serum iron levels are associated with decreased PD risk, and high dietary iron intake reduces PD ...
They can present with overt hemorrhage, or insidiously with iron deficiency anemia. Bleeding stops spontaneously in 85–90% of cases, but it recurs in 25–85% of cases. The patient had a demonstrated cecal angiodysplasia that led to massive gastroenteric bleeding 10 months PTA, (while the ...
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is much more common, and while non-malignant, has also been shown to have an association with increased mortality. Despite the probability of these two hematological conditions coexisting, the interaction between them has yet to be closely studied. This retrospective ...
Of the 6,893 with laboratory confirmed anemia (WHO or ECCO), 4.1% had a clinical diagnosis of iron-deficiency anemia, whereas 272 and 4848 individuals had a clinical diagnosis despite negative lab results (58.8% CD; 41.2% UC) and no lab results (55.5% CD; 44.5% UC) respectiv...
Patients were stratified into those with and without nutritional anemia (16.19% vs 83.81%) which included iron, B12, folate deficiency and other nutritional anemia per ICD-10 coding. Mortality was the primary outcome of the study whereas length of stay (LOS), total treatment cost, acute kidney...
The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) among male adolescent athletes who participate in non-calorie-restricting sports, and to compare the results with female athletes of the same age and sports. Data of the hemoglobin conc...
