Pancytopenia caused by iron-dextran.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pancytopenia after intramuscular iron-dextran treatment occurred in an infant with Down's syndrome. Haematological abnormalities recurred on subsequent challenge. Positive migration inhibiting factor and mast cell degranulation tests support an allergic pathogenesis for the pancytopenia. These side effects have not been reported previously.

Pathogenesis of infection by clinical and environmental strains of Vibrio vulnificus in iron-dextran-treated mice.
Vibrio vulnificus is an opportunistic pathogen that contaminates oysters harvested from the Gulf of Mexico. In humans with compromising conditions, especially excess levels of iron in plasma and tissues, consumption of contaminated seafood or exposure of wounds to contaminated water can lead to systemic infection and disfiguring skin infection with extremely high mortality. V. vulnificus-associ...
متن کاملDextran grafted nickel-doped superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles: Electrochemical synthesis and characterization
In this paper, polymer grafted nickel-doped iron oxide nanoparticles are fabricated via an easy, one-step and fast electrochemical procedure. In the deposition experiments, iron(II) chloride hexahydrate, iron(III) nitrate nonahydrate, nickel chloride hexahydrate, and dextran were used as the bath composition. Dextran grafted nickel-doped iron oxides (DEX/Ni-SPIOs) were synthesized with applying...
متن کاملIron and the liver: acute effects of iron-loading on hepatic heme synthesis of rats. Role of decreased activity of 5-aminolevulinate dehydrase.
Acute iron loading of rats, by intraperitoneal administration of iron-dextran (500 mg Fe/kg body wt 18-20 h before killing) decreased by 30% the rate of conversion of 5-amino-[14C]levulinate ([14C]ALA) into heme as measured with a recently described procedure for liver homogenates (1981. Biochem. J. 198: 595-604). The decrease in conversion of labeled ALA into heme caused by iron loading was sh...
متن کاملBone Marrow Aspiration Study in Pancytopenia: Study for Diagnostic Efficacy from Central India
Pancytopenia can be caused by a wide variety of etiologies that require evaluation of bone marrow. This is a cross sectional study carried out to identify the various findings in bone marrow aspiration in patients with pancytopenia on peripheral smear examination. Bone marrow aspiration was performed in 103 cases with pancytopenia over a period of 2 years. Bone marrow was hypercellular in 46.6%...
متن کاملProtective effects of deferasirox and N-acetyl-L-cysteine on iron overload-injured bone marrow
Using an iron overload mouse model, we explored the protective effect of deferasirox (DFX) and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) on injured bone marrow hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) induced by iron overload. Mice were intraperitoneally injected with 25 mg iron dextran every 3 days for 4 weeks to establish an iron overload (Fe) model. DFX or NAC were co-administered with iron dextran in two...
