...IKg/m2. Serum ferritin (ng/mL) and hemoglobin (gm/dl) alongwith hormonal assay of GH (ng/mL), T3 (ng/mL), T4 (µg/dL), TSH (μIU/mL), and kisspeptin (ng/ml) was done. BMI and hemoglobin were significantly reduced (P<0.001), while serum ferritin were significantly increased (P<0.001) in all four thalassemic groups on comparison with control. Kisspeptin levels were signi...

...emia is defined as serum ferritin level less than 12 micro gram per ml and on Red Blood Cell indices, i.e. decrease in MCV, MCH and MCHC, and Microcytic Hypochromic cells in Peripheral Smear. Megaloblastic anemia was labeled when Macrocytic Hypochromic cells seen. Obstetric outcome in terms of Preterm delivery defined as delivery at <37 weeks of gestation (36 +6 weeks) and birth weight <2500g mand a need for operative delivery. Patients fulfilling the se...

...CBC), blood group, serum ferritin level and liver function tests were performed. Secondary complications were assessed by physical examination of pallor, splenomegaly, ascites, and hepatomegaly. The average±SD values of patients’ CBCs and liver enzymes were: red blood cells 3.07x 1012±0.769x 1012/L, white blood cells 8.89x 109±2.849x 109/L, hemoglobin 8.01± 1.027 g/dL, platelets 321....

HRCT reveals a haze area in the right perihilar region adjacent to medial part of horizontal fissure on the 3rd day of manifestation of symptoms. Radiological studies showed early consolidation of COVID-19 whereas RT-PCR showed negative results. Chest C...

...t isolates expressed the ferritin HMWPs similar to those of Yersinia. Later on, Kunming mice were infected with E. coli HPI+ and HPI- strains, respectively for the histopathology examination. The higher organ damage was observed by E. coli HPI+ than HPI- strain in mice. This study postulates the predicted protein structures of major genes, and validates the HMWP expression under iron starvation and provides a theoretical basis for prevention and treatment of E...

The estimated pro-inflammatory cytokines and APPs yielded high sensitivity and specificity values in both infected species, but IL-1β, IL-6, and Fb had the highest likelihood ratios in infected sheep and IL-1β and IL-1α had the highest likelihood ratios in infected goat while Hp and IL-1β scored the highest percentages of increase among these markers. We concluded that bvfA, v...

The conclusion of present research is that COVID-19 impacts overall health of patients including; long lasting symptoms, malnutrition, anxiety, depression and alterations in Biochemical markers (Ferritin, D-dimer, CRP, LDH, CBC), that was also correlated with age, severity, weig...

...), serum 25(OH)-D, serum ferritin, blood hematocrit, and mean cell volume (MCV) were measured. Results showed that serum TSH, anti-Tg, and anti-TPO were significantly increased in HT cases than in the healthy controls, while serum FT4, 25(OH)-D and ferritin were significantly reduced (p <0.0001). A negative correlation between serum vitamin D with anti-TPO and a positive correlation with FT4 and f...

After the urethral process amputation, ten rams showed marked improvement and returned healthy (survive group (SG)) and the other ten rams showed a noticeable deterioration and eventually died (dead group (DeG)). The estimated pro-inflammatory cytokines, APPs, and TAC yielded sensitivity and NPV as 100 % in DG (compared to CG) and DeG (compared to SG), but LR suggests TAC and IL-1β as the best markers for urine reten...
