Blood viscosity is influenced by several factors, including red blood cell (RBC) deformability, hematocrit (Hct), and plasma protein levels. To effectively isolate the individual contributions of it necessary to simultaneously measure viscosities plasma. In this study, suspended were obtained sequentially adopting an ultrasonic transducer for separation a co-flowing microfluidic channel measure...

INTRODUCTION Hypoxia is a basic stimulant in production of erythropoietin (EPO). The primary function of erythrocytes is the transport of oxygen to tissues. Erythropoietin stimulates erythropoiesis which leads to increased production of erythrocytes- their total mass. This increases the capacity of the blood to carry oxygen, reduces the hypoxic stimulus and provides a negative feedback of stopp...

conclusions treatment with epo and mel had a beneficial effect on renal ir injury. the results may also indicate that mel protects against morphological damage better than epo in renal ir injury. results ischemia-reperfusion significantly decreased the observed hb and hct values. the histopathological findings in the ir group confirmed that there was an increase in the hyaline cast and thickeni...

Research done on 40 patients; 24 males, 20-79 years, and 16 females, 42-67 years; referred to dialysis unit, Baqubah hospital, in November December, 2021; January February 2022. Creatinine, Urea Iron, record high levels. Glucose, calcium, sodium, potassium, phosphate, were within normal, low levels of albumin. Means Total Erythrocyte Counts (TECs), hemoglobin (Hb), Hematocrit% (HCT), Mean Corpu...

Abstract Introduction Elevated hematocrit (Hct > 52%) in men receiving testosterone therapy (TTh) has been associated with major adverse cardiac events (MACE), but it remains unclear if the degree of change from baseline Hct after starting TTh confers additional MACE risk. Objective The objective this study is to assess greater changes initiation for risk MACE. Methods We compared occurr...

Objectives: It is aimed to investigate the effect of tourniquet and tranexamic acid (TXA) on amount perioperative bleeding in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Methods: One hundred ninety-three included study. The study were divided into 4 groups. Group 1 (n = 78) was determined as patient group with long-term application, but without additional application accepted control group. 2 ...

Background: The hair goat of Anatolia is a breed that has adapted to rugged and mountainous areas known be very resistant diseases. As the world faces problem climate change, we believe knowing hematological characteristics goats will provide great benefits for breeding. Objectives: This study was performed determine possible differences in blood parameters adult (male female) during out breedi...

Introduction: When the amount of hemoglobin in blood is less than two SD (standard deviation) for a specific age and sex, or when red cells peripheral below normal level, it called anemia. Blood deficiency common global health problem children. Materials Methods: This research has been conducted descriptive manner which 200 patients referred to Spinghar Momand Curative Teaching Hospital from 20...

BACKGROUND Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) is altered in pathological cardiac remodeling and predicts death and arrhythmia. ECV can be quantified using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 mapping but calculation requires a measured hematocrit (Hct). The longitudinal relaxation of blood has been used in adults to generate a synthetic Hct (estimate of true Hct) but has not been validat...
