In each adolescent, a blood sample was taken at bend of the elbow in morning on an empty stomach. These blood samples were collected in tubes with anticoagulant (EDTA) and dry tubes. The haematological and biochemical parameters were determined to assess iron status of adolescent in the three ...
Living with POTS at altitude presents unique challenges that require careful management, as patients may find it harder to adapt to the altitude-induced changes in blood oxygenation and pressure regulation. These challenges are compounded by the existing difficulties they face in maintaining autonomic st...
The effects of long term exposure to a high g simulated aerial combat maneuver (SACM, or alternating peaks of +4.5Gz to +7.0Gz) were examined using blood oxygen saturation (SAO2) levels and performance measures (RTs, error rates, and comfort ratings). Four different anti-g protection device...
% saturation and ferritin.And the TIBC, an indirect measure of the iron-carrying protein transferrin, will be lower in the range when all three of the former are too high

Pregnancy places a remarkable strain on maternal iron status even in a high-resource, generally iron-supplemented population. Women should be screened early in pregnancy for iron status, with a suggested target ferritin concentration of >60 μg/L. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as...
Transferrin saturation (TfSat) was calculated using the formula [S-Iron (mol/L) ϫ 0.038]/S- Transferrin (g/L)*100 and the TfR-F Index was defined as TfR/ LogFerritin. In case of suspected birth asphyxia, blood was drawn into 1 mL syringe and analyzed immediately using Rapidlab ...

6. Clinical assessment of hypoxia in the human body commonly relies on oxygen saturation levels7,8. Respiratory patterns not only respond to hypoxia9,10, but also have the ability to counteract it. Therefore, real-time assessment of the body’s hypoxic state can be achieved by gathering data...
A blood test was arranged at that time to confirm the genetic test result and to measure iron indices. They were also invited to attend a clinic to have a formal clinical assessment and further genetic counselling. The genetic counselling included information about the genetic and clinical aspects...
