Initial diagnosis finds that the patient has iron deficiency anemia. However, results of the case study diagnosed the patient with a nonspecific nature of ovarian cancer symptoms. The poor follow-up for medical attention has caused a delayed diagnosis.Mattison...

The objective of this work was to investigate the degree of overlap between iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and cobalamin deficiency and to develop a predictive model for differentiating IDA from combined deficiency. A prospective case and control study was carried out to investigate vitamin B-12 and...
Introduction: Iron is a component of a number of proteins including haemoglobin, myoglobin, cytochromes and enzymes deficiency of which leads to iron deficiency anemia and excess in iron overload. There is a panel of tests to assess iron... A Soman,U Adiga - 《International Journal of Biochemi...

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...
7 Differentiation between ACD and ACD/iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is clinically important because iron supplementation is beneficial for ACD/IDA patients but may be deleterious for ACD patients, especially if these subjects have underlying infections or malignancies.1 In clinical practice, however, ...
Over the last 20 years, the diagnostic accuracy of serology for CD has progressively increased with the development of highly reliable tests, such as the detection of IgA tissue transglutaminase and antiendomysial and IgG antideamidated gliadin peptide antibodies. The routine use of antibody markers...
A total of 134 patients with anemia underwent a series of blood tests. To eliminate the bias which might cause by gender, we will limit our analysis to the 55 female study patients. Ferritin concentration provides a useful screening test for iron deficiency Summary and discussion This article ...
