BACKGROUND Seroepidemiological and clinical studies suggest that Helicobacter pylori may cause iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in the absence of peptic lesions by undefined mechanisms, which still remain to be fully elucidated. Gastric acidity and ascorbic acid (AA) promote iron absorption. AA is lowered in the presence of H pylori infection. H pylori can cause atrophic body gastritis with achlor...

Background: Seroepidemiological and clinical studies suggest that Helicobacter pylori may cause iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in the absence of peptic lesions by undefined mechanisms, which still remain to be fully elucidated. Gastric acidity and ascorbic acid (AA) promote iron absorption. AA is lowered in the presence of H pylori infection. H pylori can cause atrophic body gastritis with achlo...

conclusions it seems that the preventive effects of rutin against damages caused by ida can be attributed to its ability to reduce apoptosis, which may be mediated by underexpression of caspase3 and overexpression of bcl2 genes. also, it could increase the expression of dazl that may be important in spermatogenesis. methods in the current experimental study, balb/c mice were divided into 8 grou...

Despite high prevalence of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in patients with acute or chronic gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB), IDA and iron deficiency (ID) are frequently untreated. Reasons may be misconceptions about the impact and diagnosis of IDA and the efficacy of new treatments. Addressing these misconceptions, this article summarizes current evidence for better understanding and management o...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Many members in the IDA are not actively involved in the association. Therefore, despite representation being a key function of the IDA, members are not equally represented in the association. PURPOSE OF THE STUDY This study aimed to examine IDA members' views, with a view to identifying changes that might enhance the members' active engagement. MATERIALS AND METHOD...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The stimulatory and inhibitory role of ethylene and auxin, respectively, in leaf abscission (leaf drop) is well documented. More recently, IDA (INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION) peptides and their putative interacting receptor-like-kinase partners, HAESA and HAESA-like2, were shown to be essential components in Arabidopsis floral organ abscission. Prior to research on I...

Binding of idazoxan (IDA) to imidazoline receptors of the I2 subtype in astrocytes influences astroglial gene expression as evidenced by increased expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and mRNA. To determine whether IDA affected glial inflammatory gene expression, we tested the effects of IDA on astroglial nitric oxide synthase type-2 (NOS-2) expression. NOS-2 was induced in primary rat...

A rare case of acute ischemic stroke in a young patient with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is reported. IDA has been suggested to have an association with stroke, but few cases have proven it thus far. Three physiological mechanisms explaining IDA to ischemic stroke include a hypercoagulable state secondary to IDA, thrombocytosis secondary to IDA, and anemic hypoxia induced by IDA. Our paper sho...

Idarubicin (IDA) is an anthracycline anticancer drug utilized in the treatment of acute leukemias. There are conflicting data published with regard to the cross-resistance of IDA in multidrug-resistant (MDR) cells expressing P-glycoprotein (P-gp). We evaluated the cytotoxicity and cellular accumulation of IDA in a panel of anthracycline-selected MDR cell lines. Leukemia K562/R7 cells and sarcom...

BACKGROUND Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) is an important health problem all around the world especially in developing countries. In the Mediterranean countries another prevelant reason of anemia is Thalassemia. Certain strategies had been established as a government policy to reduce prevalence in North Cyprus, such as pre-marital screening of Thalassemia. The prevalence of thalassemia trait has ...
