Anemia falciforme ¿Qué es la anemia falciforme? La hemoglobina de los glóbulos rojos es la que lleva el oxígeno desde los pulmones a todas partes del cuerpo. La hemoglobina principal de los glóbulos rojos de quienes padecen anemia falciforme es diferente de la hemoglobina común. Los glóbulos rojos que contienen hemoglobina normal son redondos y flexibles. Pero cuando los glóbulos rojos de las personas afectadas con esta enfermedad liberan el oxígeno, la anomalía de la hemoglobina hace que las células se endurezcan y se deformen, a menudo hasta tener la forma de una letra C, como una hoz. Los glóbulos falciformes tienden a quedar atrapados y a ser destruidos en el hígado y en el bazo. Como consecuencia, se produce una falta de glóbulos rojos, o anemia, la cual, en casos graves, puede provocar palidez, dificultades respiratorias y cansancio. Hay factores, como el agrandamiento del bazo y algunas infecciones, que pueden empeorar la anemia al acelerar el proceso de destrucción de glóbulos rojos. Las infecciones también pueden provocar una reducción en la producción de glóbulos rojos. Existen varios tipos de anemia falciforme. Los tipos más comunes suelen denominarse SS (cuando el niño hereda dos genes de glóbulos falciformes; la "S" proviene del inglés "sickle"), SC (cuando hereda un gen de glóbulos falciformes y un gen de otro tipo anormal de hemoglobina llamado "C") y S con talasemia beta-cero (cuando hereda un gen de glóbulos falciformes y un gen de un tipo de talasemia, otro tipo de anemia hereditaria). Los efectos de la anemia falciforme varían enormemente de una persona a otra. Algunas personas afectadas, casi nunca parecen enfermarse, mientras otras necesitan ser hospitalizadas con frecuencia.

Davol, 76 Mildred Avenue, Swansea, MA 02777-1620 pdavol@labbies.com AIHA Letters A compilation of selected letters from my archives addressing issues pertaining to AIHA. Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia A disease characterized by increased destruction of red blood cells (erythrocytes) by the dog's own immune system, canine autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is one of the most common blood (hematologic) disorders affecting canines. Though much attention has been given recently to AIHA due to evidence linking the process of vaccinating with the manifestation of this sometimes life-threatening disease, immunization is only one potential cause for this condition. The following article provides a detailed explanation of AIHA in terms of the disease process, diagnosis and treatment, and explores factors that may play a role in the development of this disorder in the canine. The Blood: A Brief Overview The blood is considered an organ having its own complex and diverse development, structure and functions. Its unique form, cellular tissue suspended in fluid plasma, allows it to serve as a main distribution system throughout the body. Cellular tissues composing the blood include: the red blood cells, which provide oxygen to tissues of the body; the white blood cells, which prevent invasion of microorganisms or other foreign substances; the lymphocytes, which carry out immune surveillance; and the platelets, which are involved in keeping the components of the blood in balance. Remarkably, all of these cellular components originate from a common source called stem cells located in the bone marrow. These stem cells give rise to a mature colony of cells which as they continue to divide and mature undergo a series of changes, a process known as differentiation, and eventually develop into the specialized blood cells indicated above.

Ask Joanne Larsen, RegisteredDietitian and nutrition counselor. Ask the Dietitian, Iron anemia. http://www.dietitian.com/iron.html

Anemia I am a 33 year old married mother of one. I have what I feel is an embarrassing and possibly life threatening disorder. Some years ago I was diagnosed as being anemic. The iron level was so low that the doctor asked if I ate or craved anything unusual. I told him that I crave and chew ice quite often. The doctor explained that this was a pica and I should stop chewing the ice because it was effecting my body's ability to absorb iron. What I did not tell the doctor is that I crave and chew plain white paper (typing paper). I have done this since I was a teenager and chew about 2 pages per day. I have never discussed this problem with anyone. Can you help me with my questions: Have you ever heard of a pica and of someone craving paper? Is this detrimental to my health? I fear that I have a large quantity of paper or chemicals stored somewhere in my body as a result of this disorder? Is there anything I can do to stop the paper and ice cravings? Check out the second to last question in children topic as it deals with pica. You have iron deficiency anemia and need to take iron supplements with

Home Services Contact Links ... Chemotherapy Drugs Anemia Anemia is defined as lowering of red blood cells and disruption of their most important function carrying oxygen. In cancer patients, it may be mild to severe and may be attributable to a variety of causes. Severity of anemia may increase as the disease progresses. Causes: Reduced production of blood from bone marrow, which is normally due to suppression of bone marrow by the cancer. Some cancers produce substances with a direct negative impact on the bone marrow; other cancers can spread and occupy the bone marrow space and interfere with blood production. In most instances, treatment of cancer also harms the bone marrow. Chemotherapy and Radiation therapy may both cause anemia. Bleeding may occur in cancer patients and result in anemia. Blood loss could be directly from the cancer site, as in colon cancer where bleeding occurs inside the large bowel. It may also be due to other causes. Cancer treatment can cause lowering of platelets which can make patients prone to bleeding. Most common sites for this kind of bleeding are the stomach and bowels, under the skin, gums, in the urine, etc.

It usually involves adherence of the offending agent (parasite, drug, toxin, etc) to the surface of the rbc. The immune system wishes to attack this agent but manages to injure the rbc as well. Dogs with IMHA usually experience a sudden onset of clinical signs, including depression, lethargy, pale gums or conjunctiva, sometimes jaundice or a heart murmur and bruising. Vomiting or abdominal pain may be present. It is unusual for overt blood loss to occur, such as nose bleeds or excessive bleeding from a minor injury. Death can occur rapidly, even with appropriate treatment.

56. A - Anemia anemia. anemia is the condition in which there are fewer red blood cellsthan normal. If the destruction outpaces the production, anemia occurs. http://www.vetinfo.com/dencyclopedia/deanemia.html

Vetinfo Canine Encyclopedia Feline Encyclopedia VetInfo Digest ... Your Turn Encyclopedia of Canine Veterinary Medical Information Anemia Anemia is the condition in which there are fewer red blood cells than normal. Hemolytic anemia describes the condition in which this loss of red blood cells occurs because the red cells break up (lyse). This can happen inside the blood vessels (intravascular hemolysis) or outside of the blood vessel (extravascular hemolysis). Hemolytic anemia can occur for many reasons, including heat stroke, parasites, viral infections. toxins and other conditions. One of the things that can cause hemolytic anemia is immune system disease - in this case the disorder is known as immune mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA). This is the term currently preferred for the condition formerly known as auto-immune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). The reason for the subtle name change is the recognition that much of the time the immune system really is attacking an invader it just happens to be one that is stuck on the red blood cell so both get destroyed. Anemia occurs for a number or reasons but they break down into two major categories. Either blood is not being made in the first place (nonregenerative anemia) or else it is being destroyed in some manner even though it is being made by the body. If the destruction outpaces the production, anemia occurs.

Riding on Public Roads This segment contains statutes and administrative regulations that deal with Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA or swamp fever). These laws require regular blood tests (Coggins test) to determine whether a horse is infected with the virus. Often, these laws prohibit the showing of a horse that does not have a current negative Coggins test. Sometimes, the ban even extends to such events as organized trail rides. A negative Coggins test is ordinarily required for the importation of a horse from another state or country. A positive test result requires that the horse be euthanized or quarantined for the rest of its life.
