We use the term "renal threshold for hemoglobin" to indicate the smallest amount of hemoglobin which given intravenously will effect the appearance of recognizable hemoglobin in the urine. The initial renal threshold level for dog hemoglobin is established by the methods employed at an average value of 155 mg. hemoglobin per kilo body weight with maximal values of 210 and minimal of 124. Repeat...

Hemoglobin is the most important blood parameter. Hemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that carry oxygen to the body. Low level of hemoglobin can be due to disease like anemia and high hemoglobin level may be due to polycythemia Vera. Conventional methods are mostly used to calculate hemoglobin level. These methods involve pricking of blood with needle and sending it to laboratory for f...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Many patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) suffer from anemia. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of the admission hemoglobin level and the post-admission fall in hemoglobin level on short-term prognosis during hospitalization. METHODS This retrospective study involved 542 highrisk ACS patients who were admitted during 2005. The hemogl...

Iron Supplementation is generally recommended during pregnancy to meet the iron requirement of both mother and fetus. When detected early in pregnancy, iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is associated with an increase in the risk of preterm delivery. Deficiency of Vitamin C also causes poor iron absorption leading to IDA. This paper deploys non-parametric statistics to analyse and compare the hemoglo...

background: national surveys in india have documented an increasing number of adolescent girls suffering from anemia. efforts to build iron stores in adolescent girls will help them improve their prepregnancy hemoglobin level. to assess the effectiveness of school-based supervised weekly, bi–weekly, and daily regimen of iron folic tablets in the treatment of anemia among adolescent girls. metho...

We have shown recently, in fresh heparinized blood drawn from smokers and equilibrated with 95 per cent oxygen in vitro for periods exceeding 30 min, that the oxygen content determined by Van Slyke analysis is significantly lower than in non-smokers' blood. The findings, which we have noted briefly elsewhere (Gregory, Hulands and Millar, 1972), were obtained during investigation of the normal o...
