An Overview on: The Red Blood Cell Histogram
The RBC histogram is an integral part of automated hematology analysis and is now routinely available on all automated cell counters. This histogram and other associated complete blood count (CBC) parameters have been found abnormal in various hematological conditions and may provide major clues in the diagnosis and management of significant red cell disorders. In addition, it is frequently use...
متن کاملMeasurement of red cell lifespan and aging.
SUMMARY The measurement of red blood cell (RBC) survival has a long history, and a wide variety of methods have been utilized for this purpose. Current methods are of 2 types. First, those that label a representative sample of RBCs of all ages from the blood and then measure their rate of disappearance upon reinfusion. This category includes the (51)Cr and biotin labels. Second, those that use ...
متن کاملEffect of Thyroid Dysfunctions on Blood Cell Count and Red Blood Cell Indice
Abstract Background Thyroid hormones have a crucial role in metabolism and proliferation of blood cells. Thyroid dysfunction induces different effects on blood cells such as anemia, erythrocytosis leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and in rare cases causes’ pancytopenia. It also alter RBC indices include MCV, MCH, MCHC and RDW. Thus this study attempted to evaluate effect of hypo & hyperthyroi...
متن کاملIs poor glycemic control associated with reduced red blood cell lifespan?
A major assumption in the interpretation of HbA1c as a measure of glycemic control is that the duration of Hb exposure to glucose does not vary among patients who are hematologically normal. In this issue of Diabetes Care, Virtue et al. (1) use an appealingly simple method to quantitate erythrocyte lifespan (2,3) and report an inverse correlation with glycohemoglobin concentration in patients w...
متن کاملGeneral coarse-grained red blood cell models: I. Mechanics
We present a rigorous procedure to derive coarse-grained red blood cell (RBC) models, which lead to accurate mechanical properties of realistic RBCs. Based on a semi-analytic theory linear and nonlinear elastic properties of the RBC membrane can be matched with those obtained in optical tweezers stretching experiments. In addition, we develop a nearly stress-free model which avoids a number of ...
