چکیده
INTRODUCTION F OLLOWING Haden’s1#{176}demonstration of the close correlation between spherocytosis and the fragility of erythrocytes to hypotonic saline, Dameshek and Miller5 postulated that spherocytosis was a preliminary stage in the destruction of the red cell; i.e. partial hemolysis. They were able to show experimentally that the degree of spherocytosis was related to the concentration of hemolysins in the blood and that this was also correlated with fragility. They also described cases of acquired hemolytic anemias with spherocytosis and increased fragility, thus emphasising the danger of using spherocytosis and increased fragility as criteria for the diagnosis of familial acholuric jaundice. In addition, they demonstrated the presence of hemolysins in a number of cases of hemolytic anemia.6 ‘ ‘

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...
متن کاملAN OPTIMUM APPROACH TOWARDS SEISMIC FRAGILITY FUNCTION OF STRUCTURES THROUGH METAHEURISTIC HARMONY SEARCH ALGORITHM
Vulnerability assessment of structures encounter many uncertainties like seismic excitations intensity and response of structures. The most common approach adopted to deal with these uncertainties is vulnerability assessment through fragility functions. Fragility functions exhibit the probability of exceeding a state namely performance-level as a function of seismic intensity. A common approach...
متن کاملStudies of Human HbAA Erythrocyte Osmotic Fragility Index of Non-Malarious Blood in the Presence of Five Anti-malarial Drugs
Background: The capacity of human HbAA erythrocytes of non-malarious blood to withstand osmotic stress in the presence of five antimalarial drugs, Chloroquine phosphate, Quinine, FansidarTM, CoartemTM and HalfanTM was studied in vitro. Materials and Methods: Aqueous solutions of four increasing concentrations of the drugs used in this investigation were in the order: 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6% and 0.8% (...

Due to several uncertainties which affect structural responses of Reinforced concrete (RC) frames, it is sensibly required to apply a vulnerability analysis tool such as fragility curve. To construct an analytical fragility curve, the incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) method has been extensively used as an applicable seismic analysis too...
