Very few reports of depression occurring with sickle cell anemia have been documented. We have reported three cases of depression in patients with sickle cell anemia that were referred over a relatively brief period, and that were successfully treated with antidepressant medication and family
Tryptophan as the precursor of several active compounds, including kynurenine and serotonin, is critical for numerous important metabolic functions. Enhanced tryptophan metabolism toward the kynurenine pathway has been associated with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs), which are preleukemic clonal
Nomifensine (Merital, Alival; Hoechst, Frankfurt, FRG), an antidepressant drug, may cause immune hemolytic anemia (IHA) of the so-called immune complex type that is believed to occur by means of an innocent-bystander mechanism. In this report we describe findings that are not consistent with this
Nomifensine is an antidepressant drug (widely used in Europe, but not yet available in the United States), which has been linked to intravascular hemolysis. We studied 19 patients (18 women and 1 man) with acute intravascular hemolysis due to nomifensine-dependent antibodies. Transitory renal
Many observational studies have found an association between antidepressant drug prescription during pregnancy and neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and intellectual disability. The results of such studies cannot be considered
A population-based study to estimate the incidence of hospitalizations for aplastic anemia and agranulocytosis and to evaluate associations between these disorders and antecedent prescription drug use was performed using the Saskatchewan administrative health care databases. Hospital charts and
Aplastic anemia (AA) is associated with non-trival mortality. Although diagnostic boarders with other myelodysplastic syndromes are unclear, AA is thought, at some point in the chain of events that destroy marrow hematopoiesis, to involve overproduction of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) and that
BACKGROUND
Folate and B12 deficiencies may result in macrocytic anemia, and are common in major depression; hypofolatemia may result in poorer antidepressant response. We wished to determine whether anemia or macrocytosis predict hypofolatemia, low B12, or refractoriness to
Surveys of psychiatric population had previously shown a high incidence of patients with low serum vitamin B12. A variety of psychiatric syndromes have been described, ranging from mild disturbance in mood state like depression to maniacal excitement; psychotic conditions like paranoid states and
The aim of this prospective study was to determine the relationship between anaemia during pregnancy and postpartum depression. Two hundred eighty-one non-anaemic mothers with singleton and low-risk pregnancy and no history of antidepressant-use were studied. Demographic and reproductive data at
Nomifensine, an antidepressant used for eight years in Britain, was particularly popular in the north west of England. Haemolytic anaemia was recognised as a rare side effect, but in 1984 a cluster of six cases was referred to the North West Regional Transfusion Centre, reflecting an incidence of
Anemia is known to be associated with depression both in community and clinical populations. However, it is still unknown if this association depends or not on antidepressant intake. We investigated the respective association of depression and antidepressant intake with low hemoglobin level in a
Angelicae Sinensis Radix (AS), a well-known herb in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been wildly used for replenishing the blood and promoting circulation, in Asia for thousands of years. It has been confirmed that AS also possesses the pharmacological activity of anti-depression. At the same
Drug-induced hematological disorders appear as a rare but serious side effect of the drugs use. According to studies, their frequency is estimated between one and two cases per year for 100,000 subjects, and their mortality is fluctuating between 8 and 17%. Granulocytopenic disorders seem to be
