We have developed a quantification system by gating a fixed area of fragmented red blood cells (Gate 1) on an automated haematology analyser (XE‐2100, Sysmex Co., Kobe, Japan). The fragmented red cell percentage (FRC%) calculated with this system, from 100 samples, was highly correlated ...
Whereas a large percentage of oxygen is transported by red blood cells in the body, this is not the case with carbon dioxide. Here, about 20 percent of the gas (carbon dioxide) is transported to the lungs by red blood cells. Unlike oxygen which binds to hemoglobin, carbon dioxide binds ...
Red cell vesiclesflow cytometric determinationβ-thalassemiaThe aim of this study was to determine the percentage of RBCs vesicles in the peripheral blood of 尾-thalassemic patients, using flow cytometry and study its relationship to the degree of severity of anemia. Thirty one 尾-thalassemic ...
Cell-Dyn Sapphire is an automatic haematologic analyzer that provides extended red blood cell (RBC) parameters – among these, the parameter hyperchromic red blood cells percentage (%Hyper), when high, has been reported to be a good indicator for HS. New guidelines for the HS diagnosis ...
The percentage of hospitalized patients who received RBC transfusions decreased from a peak of 6.8% in 2011 to 5.7% in 2014 (adjusted risk ratio [aRR], 0.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.78 - 0.88). Similarly, the proportion of patients who received a plasma transfusion went from 1.0%...
The cell membrane of red blood cells is composed of lipids and proteins that gives the cells stability and the ability to deform under stressful conditions without rupturing. In humans, the red blood cells are devoid of any organelles or nucleus and can be thought of as a sack of haemoglobin...
Red cell percentage linoleic acid in kwashiorkor was decreased from the control value of 15.3% to 10.9%. In marasmus and MK, there were significantly greater decreases, to 7.7% and 8.0'70, respectively. Red cell arachidonic acid in kwashiorkor was significantly (P < 0.001) decreased to 9.8% ...
When the cumulative percentage frequency was examined, the value of 115 micrograms/100 ml corresponded to the fifth percentile of the population of RBC. Thirteen of 90 premature infants (14.4%) less than 24-hours-old and 9 of 48 at 7 days of age (18.8%) had values of less than 115 ...
Fig. 1. Diagram of the red blood cell (RBC)-hitchhiking strategy. Various (different materials, sizes, and material coatings) ivermectin (IVM)-loaded nanoparticles were prepared and adsorbed onto the RBC surface in a non-covalent manner to form a RBC-nanoparticles complex. The RBC-hitchhiked ...
Hematuria indicates the presence of an abnormal amount of red blood cells (RBC) in the urine. The causes of hematuria are multiple and its investigation is crucial. One of the methods for differentiating between nephronal and non-nephronal hematuria is estimation of the percentage of dysmorphic ...
