Introduction: Musculoskeletal growth is variable during adolescent period and reaches its maximum by 18 years, whereas hemopoietic parameters reach adult values by 15 years. After adolescence period, the blood parameters may vary with nutrition and built of the individual. The purpose of this study was to find out any correlation between anthropometric and hematological parameters after the ado...

BACKGROUND: The immunostimulating effect of Aloe vera in mammals has been documented, but few works were done on effect of A. vera on fish health and immune responses. OBJECTIVES: In this study the effect of oral administration of A. vera on growth indices, hematological parameters and immune responses of rainbow trout were investigated. METHODS: One thousand five hundred rainbow trout fingerli...

Hematological traits, which are important indicators of immune function in animals, have been commonly examined as biomarkers of disease and disease severity in humans and animals. Genome-wide significant quantitative trait loci (QTLs) provide important information for use in breeding programs of animals such as pigs. QTLs for hematological parameters (hematological traits) have been detected i...

BACKGROUND Malaria remains endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa. Hematological changes that occur have been suggested as potential predictors of malaria. This study was aimed at evaluating the diagnostic relevance of hematological parameters in predicting malaria. METHODS A cross-sectional study involving 370 patients with signs and symptoms of malaria was conducted at Mulago Hospital, Kampala, from...

AIM Multivariate analysis of the prognostic significance of clinical and laboratory parameters on hematological recovery after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS Sixty-two patients suffering from hematological and non-hematological malignancies entered the study. After conditioning therapy, 28 patients received bone marrow stem cells, 21 received peripheral blood stem...

Generally, clinical presentations of Graves' disease range from asymptomatic disease to overt symptomatic hyperthyroidism with heat intolerance, tremor, palpitation, weight loss, and increased appetite. However, atypical presentation of Graves' disease with hematological system involvement, notably pancytopenia, is distinctly uncommon. Hereby, we present and discuss a series of three untreated ...

Objective: We aimed to improve the hematological parameters in pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) with the use of iron sucrose complex. Methods: We used iron sucrose complex intravenously and assessed its effects on hematological parameters in pregnant anemic women Fifty pregnant women with hemoglobin level of 8gm/dl or lower were given calculated dose of iron sucrose complex intr...

the aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of ethanolic extract of leaves of leptadenia reticulata leaves (lelr) against dalton’s ascitic lymphoma (dal) in swiss albino mice. dal cells were injected intraperitoneally (106 cells/mouse) to the mice. two days after cells injection the animals were treated with 200 mg/kg of lelr for 8 days. five-fluorouracil (20 mg/kg) was used as refer...

Abstarct: Use of herbal medicines prevails in rural and urban areas of the world; especially for treating ailments which allopathic medicines fail to treat. Present study was undertaken for the pharmacological and toxicological evaluation of Mucuna pruriens, Cinnamomum zeylanicum, and Myristica fragrans, alone and in combination. The acute toxicity was studied on mice and sub chronic toxicity a...
