BACKGROUND: Recombinant human hemoglobin (OptroD; rHb1.1) is a genetically engineered protein produced in Escherichia coli. The two alpha-globin polypeptides are genetically joined, resulting in a stable tetramer that does not dissociate into dimers or monomers. Historically, infusion in humans of ac...
Iron Deficiency Anemia- Does it affect the Glycosylated Hemoglobin levels in Non- diabetic Patients?Background: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is used in diabetic patients as an index of glycemic control. Reports on the effects of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) on HbA1c levels have shown ...
Hemodialysis: does hemoglobin level affect vascular access survival?In renal disease patients on dialysis, the correction of anemia has clear benefits, including an improvement in quality of life. There is some evidence, however, that this intervention increases the risk of vascular access thrombosis....

Purpose: In this retrospective study we assessed different factors affecting the outcome of early laryngeal cancer, focusing on the impact of the pretreatment hemoglobin (Hb) level, time interval between diagnosis and start of radiotherapy, as well as treatment interruption during the course of radioth...
Hemoglobin is an important protein in your red blood cells and iron helps your body manufacture hemoglobin. In turn, hemoglobin helps oxygen travel throughout your body. If your body doesn’t get enough oxygen, among other problems, your skin will likely be more prone to bruising....
Adverse reactions Gastrointestinal discomfort, headache, and rash may occur.Anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, kidney stones, and renal toxicity have been reported. Occasionally, abnormal liver function, hemolytic anemia, high iron hemoglobinemia, and acute renal failure may occur.Contraindications It is...
HemoglobinThis is a 4-subunit protein that binds to oxygen and carbon dioxide in the human body. Each of the subunits is called a heme group, and associates with an iron ion (Fe2+) so that it has binding power on these molecules. The hemoglobin mole...
Not only is it good for your health, it is alsoa rich source of iron. Apples are a suitable and delicious option when it comes to boosting hemoglobin levels. Apart from containing iron, Pomegranate is also rich in calcium, protein, fiber and several other vitamins and minerals. ...
aAn artificially induced iron deficiency defined by conventional laboratory parameters did not affect endurance when transfusion of red blood cells was performed in order to exclude the influence of a low hemoglobin concentration. A 4-wk period of severely depleted or absent tissue iron stores did ...
