Objective: To examine the association of maternal hemoglobin during pregnancy with preterm birth and small for gestational age (SGA). Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort analysis of hemoglobin and birth outcome among 173,031 pregnant women who attended publicly funded health programs in ten ...
hemoglobin, while delta and gamma hemoglobin are less common. Hemoglobin contains 4 types of polypeptide chains. There are two polypeptide chains (known as alpha globin chains) that contain 141 amino acid residues. There are other chains that contain 146 amino acids. The production of each type ...
Pregnant females are advised to avoid both high and low hemoglobin levels to avoid increased risks of stillbirths (high hemoglobin – above the hemoglobin normal range) and premature birth or low-birth-weight babies (low hemoglobin – below the hemoglobin normal range). What level of hemoglobin ...
Hemoglobin A1c levels should be checked, according to the American Diabetic Association, every six months in individuals with stable blood sugar control, and every three months if the person is trying to establish stable blood sugar control. Hemoglobin A1c has many other names such as glycohemoglob...
Recent research found that risk of death is increased in patients with anemia which is dialysis related when levels of hemoglobin are persistently low during several months.
The Normal Hemoglobin Levels by Age Group Chart. Normal hemoglobin values are related to the person's age and sex. Normal values may vary slightly between test systems, and which groups of doctors have determined "normal values" for their group of patients; however, the value ranges are close...
The current study suggests a possible novel association between low serum hemoglobin (Hb) and neonatal acute kidney injury (AKI). The study shows that low serum Hb levels in the first postnatal week are associated with increased risk of AKI after the first postnatal week. This study is the fi...
For example, aflatoxins can decrease both hemoglobin and red blood cell volume [75]. Aflatoxins are toxins produced by fungi that contaminate staple food crops in many developing countries [76]. In a study of 755 pregnant women, those with higher aflatoxin blood levels were more likely to be ...
