Low RBC count leads to anemia. Causes: Anemia can be caused by blood loss, decreased blood cell production, increased blood cell destruction, or hemodilution. Causes of blood loss include menstrual excess or frequency, gastrointestinal bleeding, infl...
Conclusions and Relevance Among red blood cell transfusion recipients, transfusions from female, previously pregnant, or sex-discordant donors were not significantly associated with increased mortality. Introduction Studies have examined whether blood donor characteristics, such as sex, age, and pregnancy hi...
3. RBC count However they are concentration dependent -- i.e. can fluctuate with changes in blood volume (pregnancy- .^volume would show dec. Hb and Hct, but RBC mass is normal, gunshot wound- Hb and Hct normal, RBC mass low- dec. in Hb and Hct with fluid replacement) ...

Pregnancy in women with sickle cell disease (SCD) is a high-risk situation, especially during the third trimester of gestation and in the post-partum period, due to chronic hypoxia and vaso-occlusive phenomena occurring in the maternal–fetal microcircul
infants that have consumed a low AA/DHA ratio are more likely to develop an increased FFM. Consistent with these results, a double-blind, randomized control trial evaluatingn-3 PUFA supplementation administered during pregnancy found associations with isometric growth (equal growth of all body compone...
