Objective To determine if maternal erythrocytosis is a risk factor for small-for-gestational age at term at 3,400-m altitude in pregnant women without intercurrent disease. Methods Analytical study of ...

[20] Since hydronephrosis is more common than hydronephrosis-associated erythrocytosis, however, it seems unlikely that the distension and compression of renal parenchyma are the only factors ...

Conclusions Thrombocytopaenia significantly increased the risk of mortality in ES. Furthermore, raised MPV, severe secondary erythrocytosis and anaemia, but not platelet count, were associated with an ...

Delaying umbilical cord clamping allows vital nutrients to transfer to newborns, improving iron levels. WHO recommends ...

Erythroblasts possess unique characteristics as they undergo differentiation from hematopoietic stem cells. During terminal erythropoiesis, these cells incorporate large amounts of iron in order to ...

as it has been linked to increased haemoglobin levels that may lead to high levels of red blood cells (erythrocytosis) that could raise the risk of clotting and other side effects. In addition to ...

Use of anabolic androgenic steroids (AASs) is associated with increased mortality, and case reports have suggested that some of these deaths are due to cardiovascular disease. However, the ...

Severe erythrocytosis may increase the risk of thromboembolic events or hyperviscosity syndrome. Monitor Hgb before each dose for the first 5 doses, or longer if values are unstable, and ...

The authors also recommend obtaining a complete blood count to assess for erythrocytosis, lipid profile for dyslipidemia, liver function tests for liver damage, and an echocardiogram for LV chamber ...
