Over a period of about 6 weeks a 49-year-old woman developed increasing exercise-dependent dyspnoea. Her general practitioner had diagnosed marked megaloblastic anaemia and she was hospitalised for its further elucidation. She reported to have eaten or drunk nothing but sweets, potato chips,
Prior studies have suggested that cardiorespiratory dysfunction might contribute to the inability of children with sickle cell anemia to exercise competitively with normal children. This article presents a study designed to detect differences in performance of routine physical activities between
Chicken anemia virus (CAV) is an important pathogen of chicken worldwide, causing severe anemia and immunodeficiency. Its small single-stranded DNA genome (2.3kb) encodes three proteins: VP1, the only structural protein, VP2, a protein phosphatase, and VP3, also known as apoptin, which induces
The prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia was investigated among 1,210 school girls in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Anthropometric measurements were recorded. A dietary and socio-economic status questionnaire was administered and heamoglobin (Hb), serum iron and ferritin were estimated. Wasting and

The human granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) is a glycoprotein with important clinical applications for the treatment of neutropenia and aplastic anemia and reducing infections associated with bone marrow transplants. We evaluated the potential for using a potato virus X (PVX)
Mining industry is one of the priority sectors of Armenia's economy. However, mining complexes without treatment facilities, such as those in Armenia, have adverse environmental impact. Moreover, soil contamination can pose a potential risk to human health, particularly, through the consumption of
Folates are essential vitamins in the human diet. Folate deficiency is still very common, provoking disorders such as birth defects and anemia. Biofortification via metabolic engineering is a proven powerful means to alleviate folate malnutrition. A variety of metabolic engineering approaches have
Gastric bypass (RY-GBP) has a very small gastric pouch with a 1-cm diameter Roux-Y gastrojejunostomy. RY-GBP is associated with early satiety and an aversion to sweets secondary to dumping syndrome symptoms and has a significantly better weight loss than various gastroplasty procedures, including
