The majority of patients were women (25) which may skew the results due to a higher percentage of the normal female population being anaemic than men. The methodology of how anaemia is measured and using what reference ranges is not referred to which present a problem in how to apply these results to a wider population. Cable8…

    Transmission/Clinical Features The symptoms of tularemia vary contingent upon the method of introduction to the body. Ulceroglandular tularemia, for example, results in ulcers of the skin on the area where the bacteria entered the body and will also cause swollen lymph glands, most commonly underneath the pit of your arm or near the groin region. Ulceroglandular tularemia can be transmitted to the body by insects, such as ticks or deer flies, or even handling or making contact with an infected animal. Glandular tularemia bares the same symptoms as ulceroglandular tularemia, except for the appearance of an ulcer.…

    Iron deficiency anemia is often indicated by low hemoglobin, low hematocrit, and reduced MCV (Porth, 2011). 2. Signs and symptoms of anemia often depend on the severity but may include pallor (due to decreased number of red blood cells), fatigue, dyspnea, tachycardia, epithelial atrophy and possibly pica (Porth, 2011). All of these symptoms are related to a decrease in the amount of oxygen delivered to the body’s tissues and organs (compensatory mechanisms) (Porth, 2011).…

    Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) frequently arise with aplastic anemia. Aplastic anemia is a rare disorder associated with hypocellular bone marrow and pancytopenia (Brodsky & Jones, 2005). Additionally, patient with aplastic anemia will have an increase in mean corpuscular volume (MCV), dysplasia, low number of megakaryocytes, and phagocytosis (Scheinberg & Young, 2012). In addition, aplastic anemia patient will have petechial, headache, fatigue, easy bruising, dyspnea, gingival bleeding, fever, heavy menses, and epistaxis. Therefore, a reticulocyte count, leukocyte differential, complete blood count, and a bone-marrow biopsy and aspirate and biopsy are needed for the diagnosis.…

It had been hypothesized that hemolytic anemia may be more prominent in individuals with co-existing methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene mutation and vitamin B12 deficiency associated with elevated homocysteine levels, often manifested in the peripheral blood smear as schizocytes. While TTP…

    Anemia is the most common hematologic disorder in patients with ulcer- ative colitis (UC). In some cases, normochromic anemia results from the pres- ence of chronic disease; however blood loss or malabsorption may lead to an iron de ciency anemia with hypochromic appearance. Other rare hematologic manifestations associated with UC include myelodysplastic syndromes and leukemia. Several investigators have suggested a clinical association between in ammatory bowel disease and myelodysplastic syndrome, which may they share an immune dysfunction and impairment of T-lymphocytes activities. UC is an in ammatory bowel disease of unknown etiology that mainly affects the mucosa of the colon.…

    Dr. Mari Golub gave a talk on how behavior is affected by iron deficiencies in the third trimester. The focus was looking at the hemo globin index, which is an iron protein that transports oxygen. Iron deficiencies are most common in children of preschool age and pregnant women. Golub explained a double-blind study done in 1993 by Ernesto Pollitt that studied if the effects on behavior by iron deficient could be reversed. There was three groups: anemic, iron deficient, and iron sufficient.…

    This clinical case involves a blood disorder called the autoimmune hemolytic anemia. This disorder occurs when the body immune system malfunctions and makes antibodies that act against the cells. What could cause the body’s immune system to turn against its own red blood cells? Sometimes the cause is unknown, but at times the destruction occurs for no known reason within the autoimmune hemolytic anemia disorder. The disorder is also called idiopathic autoimmune hemolytic anemia since the exact cause of this disease cannot be determined and it is the primary disease.…

    Anemia is a condition that occurs when an individual’s blood does not have enough hemoglobin or red blood cells. Hemoglobin is the main foundation of a red blood cell. It helps sustain it by binding it to oxygen. If one does not have enough red blood cells, the cells within one’s body will not receive the sufficient amount of oxygen it needs to function properly. Anemia can be caused by several factors since there are more than a single type of anemic conditions.…
