متن کاملGlucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Out of 20 patients with viral hepatitis whose glucose-6phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) levels were normal, 14 had clinical evidence of a mild to moderate degree of haemolysis but in all the patients studied the half life of chromium-51-labelled red cells was shortened. Out of 18 viral hepatitis patients deficient in G-6-PD 17 had clinical evidence of haemolysis, and in eight this was more seve...
متن کاملMassive acute haemolysis in neonates with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Three neonates with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency are described.
