Ferritin and haematological values in healthy elderly Nigerians.
Two-hundred Nigerians (65 years and above) were studied and compared with control (18-50 years). Haematocrit, haemoglobin, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular haemoglobin, mean corpuscular volume, platelets and ferritin were analyzed. Mean ferritin levels were 105 ± 30 μg/L and 72 ± 10 μg/L (males and females respectively). Mean MCV, MCH and MCHC were 94.6 ± 9.0 fl, 93....
متن کاملNormal Limits of Electrocardiogram and Cut-Off Values for Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Young Adult Nigerians.
This study assessed healthy young adults to determine the normal limits for electrocardiographic variables and cut-off values for left ventricular hypertrophy. It was a cross sectional descriptive study in which the participants were evaluated clinically by standard 12-lead resting electrocardiogram (ECG) at 25 mm/s during quiet respiration. The heart rate, P wave duration, axis and amplitude, ...
متن کاملBlood Pressure, Haematological and Biochemical Characteristics of Some Adult Nigerians
Cardiovascular and other blood related diseases are fast replacing communicable diseases; therefore there is need to constantly monitor our specific deleterious parameters and their associates. In this work, blood samples were collected to determine biochemical parameters: total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoproteincholesterol (HDL C), low density lipoproteincholesterol (LDL-C), very low d...
متن کاملSeasonal variation in haematological and biochemical reference values for healthy young children in The Gambia
BACKGROUND Haematological and biochemistry reference values for children are important for interpreting clinical and research results however, differences in demography and environment poses a challenge when comparing results. The study defines reference intervals for haematological and biochemistry parameters and examines the effect of seasonality in malaria transmission. METHODS Blood sampl...
متن کاملReference values of CD4 T lymphocytes in human immunodeficiency virus-negative adult Nigerians.
A cross-sectional study that involved secondary analysis of data collected from 681 pregnant women and 183 miners (94 men and 89 women; ratio of men to women, 1:0.95) in Jos, Nigeria, was carried out to determine the reference ranges for CD4(+)-cell counts in healthy HIV-negative adult Nigerians. The main results of interest were CD4(+)-cell counts and odds ratios (ORs) of low CD4(+)-cell count...
