Serum erythropoietin levels in patients receiving intensive chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
To investigate the potential role of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEpo) in patients receiving intensive cytotoxic therapy, we measured the endogenous levels of Epo in 31 patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Seventeen patients underwent allogeneic BMT and 14 underwent autologous BMT. On average, 10 +/- 4 units of red blood cells (RBCs) were transfused per patient. The mea...
متن کاملUmbilical Cord Serum Erythropoietin Levels and Maternal Smoking in Pregnancy
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of maternal smoking during pregnancy on levels of umbilical cord erythropoietin. METHODS Erythropoietin levels were measured in umbilical cord sera of 60 newborns who were delivered vaginally at term. There were 20 (33%) smoking and 40 (67%) nonsmoking mothers. RESULTS Mean cord serum erythropoietin levels were significantly lower in the nonsmokers (nonsmoke...
متن کاملAutonomic function and serum erythropoietin levels in chronic fatigue syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Given previous findings, we wished to investigate whether there was evidence of autonomic dysfunction in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, and whether this could be related to reduced erythropoietin levels and altered red blood cell indices. METHODS We assessed autonomic function and analysed blood parameters (including erythropoietin) in 22 patients with chronic fatigue syndr...
متن کاملErythropoietin levels in the different clinical forms of hereditary spherocytosis.
Erythropoietin (EPO), the main growth factor responsible for the regulation of red blood cell production, may be overproduced when blood loss or haemolysis occurs. Patients with mild hereditary spherocytosis (HS) are able to maintain normal haemoglobin concentration, whereas typical and severe HS patients develop an anaemic state. Splenectomy usually reverses anaemia. We aimed to clarify the ro...
متن کاملSerum phenytoin levels with different brands.
Four brands of phenytoin were studied in 60 newly diagnosed epileptic patients randomly and equally placed in 4 groups. Serum phenytoin levels were estimated by EMIT and spectrophotometric methods both of which gave close values with good correlation (r = 0.985). Average serum levels and the incidence of remission achieved with the 4 brands varied within statistical scatter; thus these 4 brands...
