Nucleated red blood cells in congestive heart failure.

چکیده
NUCLEATED red cells may be discovered in the peripheral blood of patients with congestive heart failure. This phenomenon and its connotation of poor prognosis has not been generally recognized. Only a few reports, restricted primarily to the hematologic literature,'-5 have stressed these findings. Because of the prognostic importance of peripheral nucleated red cells in congestive heart failure we are describing 5 cases with this finding (table 1) admitted to the Albert Einstein Medical Center, Southern Division, in a 6-year period. The previously reported cases are reviewed and analyzed.

Investigation of Changes in Nucleated Red Blood Cells in Neonatal Infection
Background: Early diagnosis is paramount to the treatment of neonatal infections. Nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) are immature erythrocytes that increase in number due to stress and hypoxia. This study was conducted to determine NRBC count in the peripheral blood and examine its significance as a marker of neonatal infection. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 154 infants (78 ...

Background: The presence of increased numbers of nucleated red blood cell (NRBC) in the umbilical cord blood has been associated with states of relative hypoxia. Nucleated red blood cell counts are a potentially useful tool in estimating the degree and timing of intrauterine hypoxia. This may have important implication in determining causality in case of compromised infant. Cord blood NRBC coun...
متن کاملBlood Volume Alterations in Congestive Heart
A considerable body of data indicates that the plasma volume, as measured by dye dilution methods, is generally increased in congestive heart failure (1-4). However, recent investigations, utilizing p82 (5, 6) or Cr51 (7) tagged red cells, indicate that there is little or no increase in total blood volume, plasma volume, or red cell volume in most cases of heart failure. According to presently ...

Background: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is one of the most serious complications of premature deliveries, especially in very low birth weight (VLBW) newborns. The current study compared the number of nucleated red blood cells (NRBCs) in newborns with and without IVH.Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on 109 VLBW neonates who were referred to the Neonatal Intensive C...
