Patients with cirrhosis are at risk of developing both IDA and anemia of chronic disease concomitantly, and there adverse effects can deteriorate general condition and affect of quality of life in these patients .Also because it is easier to correct IDA than anemia of chronic disease, so this study
Anemia is one of the most worrisome complications of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Numerous prospective studies have repeatedly documented an increase risk of morbidity and mortality associated with lower levels of hemoglobin (Hb). Hence the international guidelines on patient care suggest the use
Epoetin alfa can increase hemoglobin levels in chronic renal failure patients (patients with persistent kidney dysfunction) resulting in minimal transfusion requirements and improved kidney function capacity. This study is a randomized (patients randomly divided into groups), multicenter, open-label
From the early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) there is a quantitative and qualitative alteration of intestinal microflora (dysbiosis); so the composition and metabolic activities of microflora are changed in CKD. These alterations include changes in intestinal transit, decreased protein
Hemoglobin concentration is used to determine the diagnosis and severity of anemia in low resource settings, an indicator that is routinely screened using WHO-defined hemoglobin cutoffs. These thresholds are lower for pregnant women (females ≥ 15 years of age) than non-pregnant women (11.0 g/dl
We propose to complementary study:
1. A prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled field trial in two hundred sixty children of a peri-urban community near Dhaka City is proposed.
2. The assessment of iron absorption before and after anti-infective therapy in 20 children with H. Pylori infection
According to the International Federation of Renal Registries, in 1999 the prevalence of peritoneal dialysis in the United States as approximately 9.5% of patients receiving dialysis (2005 United States Renal Data Systems data indicates a prevalence of around 7.5%). Data from Europe in 1999 to 2000
Anemia, resulting primarily from insufficient production of erythropoietin to support erythropoiesis, is a common consequence of chronic renal failure. Both North America and Europe have established clinical practice guidelines for the treatment and hemoglobin targets in chronic renal
PURPOSE:
Treatment of patients with heart failure (HF) is a great challenge for contemporary medicine. HF frequency in European population is assessed for 0.4 - 2%. This disease is characterized by high morbidity and mortality rate, poor quality of life and the necessity of frequent
Coeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune condition by the exposure to gluten in patients who are genetically susceptible. The global prevalence is thought to be 1%, and incidence rate of CD in the UK is approximately 13.8 per 100,000 person-years with greater than fourfold increase in incidence over
SCD is an inherited blood disorder. Symptoms include anemia, infections, organ damage, and intense episodes of pain, which are called "sickle cell crises." In the past, SCD was considered a fatal disease, and many people with SCD died at a young age. Due to advances in medical care, people with SCD
Predictable risks The study will involve no increased risk or additional discomfort. Blood samples used in the study will be taken at blood samplings scheduled by the hospital practice of the reference institution. Only small amounts of blood will be taken for this study and they will have no
Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) deficiency is a rare x-linked disorder characterized by hemolytic anemia, seizures, muscle fatigue, and progressive neurological dysfunction. The disease is caused by the deficiency of PGK, an enzyme required for ATP formation through the glycolytic pathway. PGK is an
