Non-anaemic Iron Deficiency
Iron balance is regulated by absorption of iron rather than by excretion, because humans cannot actively excrete iron. Iron is absorbed from the small intestine. The regulation of iron absorption and transport is complex; there seems to be an important role for hepcidin, a hormone secreted by the liver. Iron is lost from the body through sloughed skin cells and sloughed enterocytes from the gut...
متن کاملAbsorption of radioactive iron by anaemic infants.
The oral administration of iron to anaemic infants often fails to restore the haemoglobin level as rapidly as it would in an adult. The reason for this failure could be either failure of absorption or failure to utilize the iron which had been absorbed, or deposition of all the iron in the tissue stores without any being incorporated in the haemoglobin. It was therefore decided to study the abs...
متن کاملEffect of calcium and phosphorus salts on the utilization of iron by anaemic rats.
In a previous paper, Chapman & Campbell (1957) reported that the addition of relatively large amounts of bone meal to bread diets low in iron retarded haemoglobin regeneration in anaemic rats. In view of the contradictory reports in the literature, mentioned by these authors, about the effect of calcium and phosphorus on the utilization of iron, it was considered desirable to extend this work t...
متن کاملIron bioavailibity from a tropical leafy vegetable in anaemic mice
Telfairia occidentalis is a vegetable food crop that is indigenous to West Africa. The leaves and seeds are the edible parts of the plant and are used in everyday meals by incorporation into soups and stews. Previous studies have attributed improved haematological indices to the vegetable and have advocated the use of T. occidentalis in the treatment of anemia. This study investigates the ameli...
متن کاملPrimary acquired sideroblastic erythropoiesis in non-anaemic and minimally anaemic subjects.
Six patients had primary sideroblastic erythropoiesis together with a haemoglobin concentration of 12.0 g/dl or higher. In four cases this was associated with macrocytosis. Other abnormalities included failure of erythroid progenitor growth from peripheral blood in three cases and occasional dysplastic appearances in neutrophils and megakaryocytes. Sideroblastic erythropoiesis seems to be an ea...
