(Low red cell count, macrocytes, normal saturation of haemoglobin; high colour index; histamine-fast achlorhydria, megaloblastic bone marrow, central nervous lesions are common.) Treatment consists in supplying the hemopoietic principle to bring the blood count up to normal level and then to maintain it at this level for life. Intramuscular liver is most commonly used. In the relapse stage when...

[Purpose] This study investigated the serologic factors associated with metabolic syndrome and gallstones. [Subjects and Methods] The study evaluated subjects who visited a health promotion center in Seoul from March 2, 2013 to February 28, 2014, and had undergone abdominal ultrasonography. Height, weight, and blood pressure were measured. Blood sampling was performed for high-density lipoprote...

The blood of 104 medical inpatients was examined at various intervals during storage for 72 hours using a Coulter S counter. Over this period remarkable stability of the white cell count, red cell count, haemoglobin, and mean cell haemoglobin was demonstrated. This permits a useful interpretation of indices obtained in routine postal samples sent to the laboratory by general practitioners for s...

OBJECTIVE To analyze the impact of moderate physical exercise on the total and differential leukocyte counts and red blood cell count of 36 sixty-day-old adult male Wistar rats subjected to early malnourishment. METHODS The rats were divided in nourished (N - casein 17%) and malnourished groups (M - casein 8%) and thesegroups were then subdivided in trained (T) untrained (U) creating four gro...

This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate as a dietary ascorbic acid source on blood parameters of Caspian brown trout (Salmo trutta caspius), including red blood cell (RBC) count, white blood cell (WBC) and WBC differential. A total number of 600 Caspian brown trout (9.6±0.6 g) fingerlings were randomly distributed in triplicates among five treatments each conta...

The immune haemolytic anaemias comprise a set of diseases characterized by shortened red blood cell survival (haemolysis) mediated by the action of antibodies and serum complement. The haemolysis is evidenced by a raised reticulocyte count in the absence of blood loss. Activity of the immune system is diagnosed by the presence of antibody or fragments of complement components (mainly C3 and C4)...

more accurate than the red cell count (7-10% minimum error). In this respect, we may confirm the reproducibility of the haematocrit determination since duplicates, set up in 3 mm. Wintrobe tubes and spun simultaneously in the same centrifuge, agree within less than 0.5 divisions, read to the nearest tenth of a division by microscopic magnification against an eyepiece scale. However, while techn...
