BACKGROUND There are some theoretical concerns for the use of intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) in patients with ectopic pregnancy. This study aimed to observe the impact of ICS on the coagulation function and clinical outcomes of patients with ruptured ectopic pregnancy and severe blood loss. METHODS This was a retrospective study of 225 patients with ruptured ectopic pregnancy and severe bl...

PURPOSE to assess the loss in hematocrit and hemoglobin, if any, 24 hours after hip arthroscopy. METHODS thirty-five patients were included. Laboratory tests including complete blood count and white blood cells were performed one week prior to surgery and 24 hours after. Surgical time, volume of saline perfusion and pump perfusion was also recorded. RESULTS mean preoperative hematocrit was ...

The correlation between productivity and competition is an oft–observed but ill– understood result. Some suggest that there is a treatment effect of competition on measured productivity, e.g. through a reduction of “managerial slack.” Others argue that greater competition makes unproductive establishments exit by reallocating demand to their productive rivals, raising observed average productiv...

background: hydrogen sulfide (h 2 s) exhibits both physiological and toxicological roles in the biological systems. acute exposure to high levels of h 2 s is life threatening while long-term exposure to ambient levels of h 2 s elicits human health effects. objective: to study the harmful effects of long-term exposure to low levels of h 2 s on human blood cells. methods: 110 adult workers from i...

Iron is an essential nutrient for most living organisms. To acquire iron from their environment, Gram-negative bacteria use TonB-dependent transporters that bind host proteins at the bacterial surface and transport iron or heme to the periplasm via the Ton machinery. TonB-dependent transporters are barrel-shaped outer membrane proteins with 22 transmembrane domains, 11 surface-exposed loops, an...

Objective: The objective of this study was to elucidate effect of H. pylori infection on serum vitamin B12 levels and to find out association of this effect with changes in red blood indices in our local population. Subjects and methods: A total number of 90 subjects were included in the study. They were divided into group A (30 subjects with gastric symptoms and H. pylori infection), group B (...

IFFERENCES IN THE HEMOGLOBINS of the adult and the newborn have been recognized since 1866 (36). Rapid advances in this field, however, began in 1949, when Pauling and Itano (25) discovered that the hemoglobin of sickle cell disease differs from adult hemoglobin. Since that time, 8 hemoglobins have been identified, hemoglobin C (18) in 1950, hemoglobin D (14) in 1951, hemoglobin E (7, 17) and h...

To test the hypothesis that variations in H- and L-subunit composition in the ferritin shell affect intracellular iron metabolism, we established stable transfectants of mouse erythroleukemia cells overexpressing the H-ferritin subunit. Analyses were performed on individual clones of transfected cells induced to differentiate with hexamethylenbisacetamide (HMBA). The results showed that there w...
