Background: The hair goat of Anatolia is a breed that has adapted to rugged and mountainous areas known be very resistant diseases. As the world faces problem climate change, we believe knowing hematological characteristics goats will provide great benefits for breeding. Objectives: This study was performed determine possible differences in blood parameters adult (male female) during out breedi...

Introduction: When the amount of hemoglobin in blood is less than two SD (standard deviation) for a specific age and sex, or when red cells peripheral below normal level, it called anemia. Blood deficiency common global health problem children. Materials Methods: This research has been conducted descriptive manner which 200 patients referred to Spinghar Momand Curative Teaching Hospital from 20...

Exercise-induced arterial hypoxemia (EIAH) is often found in endurance-trained subjects at high exercise intensity. The role of erythrocyte deformability (ED) in EIAH has been scarcely explored. We aimed to explore the role of erythrocyte properties and lactate accumulation in the response of ED in EIAH. ED was determined in 10 sedentary and in 16 trained subjects, both before and after a maxim...

An investigation of the reliability of screening tests for beta thalassaemia trait in pregnant women was carried out as part of a programme to predict beta thalassaemia major in the fetus. Women with a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) of less than 83fl were examined further, and the reliability of various red cell indices as screening tests was assessed and compared. Over three years 696 women wer...

This study is concerned with the relationship between the Na/K/Cl cotransport system and the steady-state volume (MCV) of red blood cells. Cotransport rate was determined in unfractionated and density-separated red cells of different MCV from different donors to see whether cotransport differences contribute to the difference in the distribution of MCVs. Cotransport, studied in cells at their o...

AIMS To investigate whether it is worthwhile, in areas where thalassaemia is common, to screen for globin gene mutations in subjects with a mean corpuscular volume (MCV) above 80 fL, especially in partners of known thalassaemia carriers. METHODS Blood samples from 95 subjects with MCV between 80 and 85 fL were screened for the presence of alpha globin gene mutations and the haemoglobin (Hb) E...
