Columnaris disease is one of the main causes of mortality in tilapia rearing and is responsible for large economic losses worldwide. Hematology is a tool that makes it possible to study organisms' physiological responses to pathogens. It may assist in making diagnoses and prognoses on diseases in fish populations. The hematological variables of nile tilapia were studied in specimens with a clin...

Anemia is one of the most common micronutrient deficiency in our community. Nutritional anaemias are caused when there is an inadequate body store of a specific nutrient needed for hemoglobin synthesis. The most common nutrient deficiency is of iron. Therefore, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on the healthy elderly male, aged ≥ 40 and ≤77 years (n=60) volunteers in order to assess their ...

The present study was conduct to examine different dietary levels of iron (FeSo4) on some haematological parameters of Ship sturgeon, Acipenser nudiventris including red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBCs), differential WBCs, hematocrit (Hct), Hemoglobin (Hb), the mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), the mean corpuscular volume (MCV...

To identify novel genetic loci influencing interindividual variation in red blood cell (RBC) traits in African-Americans, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in 2315 individuals, divided into discovery (n = 1904) and replication (n = 411) cohorts. The traits included hemoglobin concentration (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), RBC count, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemo...

BACKGROUND: Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) can precede the onset of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by months to years. CASE PRESENTATION: A 12-year-old girl weighing 46 kg came hospital with complaint 12 days-menstrual bleeding. The patient is weak, pale. Eyes, ENT, heart, lungs, abdomen: within normal limits, no petechiae. Laboratorium: Hemoglobin (Hb) 4.6 g/dL, leukocytes 12,930/uL, platel...

Background: Screening and counselling is the most effective way to prevent the birth of children with thalassemia major. An accurate and relatively less time-consuming protocol is necessary to screen large populations. Separating iron deficiency anaemia from thalassemia trait based on blood cell parameters has been used by hematologists for many years. We aimed to design a new approach to scree...

The aim of this study was to verify subacute oral dose toxicity of positively charged 100 nm zinc oxide (ZnO(AE100[+])) nanoparticles (NPs) in Sprague-Dawley rats. ZnO(AE100[+]) NPs were administered to rats of each sex by gavage at 0, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 mg/kg/day for 14 days. During the study period, clinical signs, mortality, body weight, food consumption, hematology, serum biochemistry, g...

background because of varying reports, there is still need to investigate the impact of wrestling on hematological indices. objectives we investigated differences in the basic hematological indices in wrestlers compared to sedentary controls. patients and methods the blood samples containing anticoagulant were collected from 12 male elite wrestlers (age = 24 ± 1.2 years, weight = 76 ± 5 kg) wit...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of partial replacement of dietary fish meal with soybean meal (SBM) on some blood and serum parameters of Beluga (Huso huso) juveniles. Three isonitrogenic and isoenergetic diets, as SBM1 (Soybean meal protein (SBP): Fishmeal Protein (FP) =1:3), SBM2 (SBP: FP = 2: 3) and SBM3 (SBP: FP =1: 1) were fed to triplicate groups of fish. After 8 weeks...
