Erythrocyte creatine in cord blood.
Erythrocyte creatine (EC) content and reticulocyte counts were compared in normal adults, pediatric patients with hemolytic anemia, and cord blood. A good correlation between reticulocyte count and EC content was found in normal subjects and patients with hemolysis, thus confirming the usefulness of creatine as an estimate of mean red cell age in these populations. No significant correlation (p...
متن کاملErythrocyte creatine levels in anemia.
The automated diacetyl-l-napthol procedure was found to be a simple and relatively quick method for the determination of erythrocyte creatine (EC), exhibiting both better precision and greater sensitivity than reticulocyte counting. A reference range of 1.8 to 5.0 mg per dl (mean, 3.0 +/- 0.9 mg per dl) was established by measuring EC levels in 81 normal adults varying in ages from 20 to 47 yea...
متن کاملA simple method for measuring erythrocyte deformability.
To pass through the microcirculation red blood cells (RBCs) need to undergo considerable deformation. The increased rigidity of older cells is probably the main cause of their selective trapping by the spleen; and indirect evidence suggests that impaired deformability may be a critical factor in causing diminished peripheral blood flow (Chien et al, 1967; Schmid-Schonbein et al, 1969; Weed, 197...
متن کاملInvestigation on prediction formulae for calculating erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Dear Editor: The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is commonly determined in laboratory blood testing and is often elevated in patients with underlying systemic disorders. In 1983, Miller et al.1 clarified the upper limits of ESR and, since then, these parameters have been widely applied in clinical practice. In a study of the upper limits of ESR based on 26 836 healthy men and 1076 nonpregn...
متن کاملErythrocyte fragility in hyperthyroid patients
Mild anaemia among patients with hyperthyroidism, reduction in intracranial zinc content of erythrocytes and anti- haemolysis of whole blood of patients with Graves, disease under laboratory Condition are the facts which indicate that although erythrocytes are devoid of receptors for thyroid hormones, they are affected by the excess of these hormones. In order to find out the reasons for suc...
