Severe malarial anemiaArtesunateEpoxyazadiradioneHemoglobin levelParasitemiaMIFMacrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine produced by immune cells; it can play a protective or deleterious role in response to pathogens. The intracellular malaria parasite secretes a similar protein,...
Mild anemia corresponds to a level of hemoglobin concentration of 10.0-10.9 g/dl for pregnant women and children under age 5 and 10.0-11.9 g/dl for nonpregnant women. For all of the tested groups, moderate anemia corresponds to a level of 7.0-9.9 g/dl, while severe anemia corresponds toa...
Acute anemia commonly results from acute hemorrhage. Anemia can be classified as mild, moderate, severe, or life-threatening. Some studies have classified severe anemia as having a hemoglobin level of 6.5–7.9 g/dL, whereas life-threatening anemia presents a hemoglobin level of <6.5 g/dL [15]...

The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) presence of bloody and bright red stool; (2) experience of dizziness and palpitation; (3) confirmation of hemorrhoids through anal digital examination and anoscopy [14]; (4) severe anemia defined as hemoglobin level on admission (AHB) <60 g/L; ...
Anemia 1. Introduction Hemoglobin (Hb) J derived its name as “Fast Moving Hemoglobin (FMH) due to its characteristic fast anodal movement compared to Hb A on gel electrophoresis. It results from a mutation leading to substitution of a negatively charged amino acid in the α, β, or ϒ ...
About 2 months after alectinib initiation, grade 2 anemia was observed with an unknown cause (Figure 1). The anemia continued for about 6 months, with the hemoglobin level then spontaneously improving to a normal level; indeed, the patient showed a complete response to treatment. About 3 years...
Initial analysis revealed pronounced acidosis and severe anemia. The patient received intravenous fluid therapy with sodium-bicarbonate as well as red cell transfusion. With all measures, the condition of the baby improved with normaliza-tion of hemoglobin level and blood pH. Kleihaurer-Betke test ...
it is difficult to know whether this adverse effect is due to the transfusion itself or to intraoperative blood spoilage and therefore anemia. This hypothesis has already been suggested in many surgeries [24]. In fact, previous studies defined anemia by a level of hemoglobin < 12 and 13 ...
