Introduction: Normal kidney function is very important for maintaining homeostasis. Any deviation of normal renal leads to End-stage disease (ESRD) the last stage chronic (CKD) resulting from different aetiologies. Different haematological abnormalities in patients with ESRD result multiple pathogenesis. Treatment this condition requires multidisciplinary approach. Among all treatment options h...

The mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) values are reduced in the usual patients, and the mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) is reduced in long standing or severe disease. The degree of change in red cell indices is related in part to the duration 60 and in part to the severity of anaemia. In mild iron deficiency anaemia of short duration, the ind...

Our study aimed to investigate the association between TMPRSS6 polymorphism and risk of iron deficiency anemia. In this analytical (case control) study, venous blood samples were taken from (100) subjects, (50) patients with anemia healthy volunteers as a control group. Hemoglobin (Hb), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), (MCH), iron, ferritin measured. Genomic DNA w...

Hematological and biochemical reference values in sickle cell disease (SCD) are crucial for patient management the evaluation of interventions. This study was conducted at Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, to establish laboratory ranges among children adults with SCD steady state. Patients were grouped into five age groups according their sex. Aggregate functions used h...

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) will cause anemia which can lead to death. CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis therapy also experience anemia. Therefore, it is necessary check the erythrocyte index consisting of Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Hemoglobin (MCH), and Concentration (MCHC) determine type so that appropriate be given. Objectives: To determined description in at H. Adam Malik General Ho...

Pyrethroids, commercially available pesticides, are greatly in use these days, and thus they carry considerable chances of contaminating various ecosystems. Haematotoxicity of cypermethrin, a broadly used type II pyrethroid, has been assessed in the present study. Selected parameters included determination of total RBC count, haemoglobin concentration (Hb conc.), packed cell volume (PCV), mean ...

BACKGROUND The identification of in vitro hemolysis (IVH) using a hematology analyzer is challenging because centrifugation of the specimens cannot be performed for cell counts. In the present study, we aimed to develop a scoring system to help identify the presence of hemolysis in anticoagulated blood specimens. METHODS Thirty-seven potassium EDTA anticoagulated blood specimens were obtained...

In this study, we aimed to assess the effects of iron deficiency (ID) on cardiac functions with M-mode, pulse Doppler, and tissue Doppler and to compare the findings with healthy individuals. Twenty one children with only ID (prelatent ID + latent ID + manifest ID/anemia) and completely healthy 23 children were included in the study. Of all patients, complete blood counts were studied, and seru...

Previous studies suggest that diets with more eggs than is recommended may be used as part of a healthy diet in some countries. However, whether quail egg diets could form part of such diet has not been explored. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of quail egg consumption on serum markers of atherogenesis and hematological parameters in healthy volunteers. Thirty adult subje...
