the effects of dietary nucleotide (nt) on growth performance and some haematological parameters of striped catfish (pangasianodon hypophthalmus) were investigated. different levels of the nt (0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1%) in the diet were used for 10 weeks starting on the fish weighted (1.52 ± 0.11 g). the results showed that nt supplementations did not improve final weight, weight gain, food conserv...

ABSTRACT Secondary acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (sALL), defined as acute lymphoblastic leukaemia following another malignancy, irrespective of previous treatment, is a rare disease, and its biological characteristics have not been accurately described. We report the case of a 24-year old patient followed for Hodgkin's lymphoma at our clinic, who develops and is diagnosed, less than a year afte...

The aim of this study was to assess the effect of heavy metal agents on haematological parameter. The Indian major carp Catla catla was exposed to sub lethal concentration of cadmium for various exposure periods7, 14, 21, 28, day haematological parameter on RBC, WBC, and Hg, were measured both in control and experimental fish. During various exposure period’s day. The 7, 14, 21, 28 of RBC, WBC,...

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is a potentially curative procedure for patients with haematological malignancies. Conventional, myeloablative conditioning is, however, poorly tolerated by patients of advanced age, those receiving second transplants and those with concomitant diseases. Based on recognition of the importance of a graft-versus-disease (GVD) effect in curing malignant haemato...

Grantham-McGregor, S. M., Desai, P., and Milner, P. F. (1974). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 49, 525. Haematological levels in Jamaican infants. A longitudinal study of 300 infants from birth to 1 year of age was carried out in Kingston, Jamaica. Haemoglobin levels were estimated 7 times during the year and serum iron and total iron binding capacity once. Hb electrophoresis was performed. I...

supply oxygen to the tissues, prevent microbial invasion and promote haemostasis. To ensure a sufficient number of cells for these functions, the bone marrow produces 1012 red cells, 1011 leucocytes and 1011 platelets daily to replace those lost through senescence or use. Because of this high rate of proliferative activity, the bone marrow is susceptible to disorders that: • interfere with its ...
