Anemia Clinical Trials

Recent studies suggested that intravenous iron preparations for anemia treatment may have adverse effects on phosphorus regulation, as they may induce an increase in the phosphaturic hormone Fibroblast Growth Factor-23 (FGF-23) and a subsequent fall in plasma phosphorus levels. So far it is unknown if these effects are class- or ...

Iron deficiency is the most common cause of anemia in pregnancy worldwide, and, when severe, can have serious consequences for mothers and babies. In the U.S., anemia affects nearly 20% of pregnancies and the majority is iron-deficiency anemia. Therefore, treatment of iron-deficiency anemia with iron supplementation is recommended.1 However, there ...

Iron deficiency (ID) in pregnant women can cause iron deficiency anaemia (IDA). ID is defined by low iron stores, measured by a low level of s-ferritin. Iron is essential for the synthesis of haemoglobin (Hb). Anaemia is defined by a low Hb level (<11.0 g/dL in 1st trimester, <10.5 g/dL ...

Allo-geneic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT) cure thalassemia major by destroying the original hematopoietic and immune systems with a large dose of chemotherapy, rebuilding a new system to correct the abnormal hematopoietic globin chain synthesis which leads to hemolysis. Currently, it is the only curative means. According to donors, allo-HSCT could be ...

Anemia is a common problem to affect patients diagnosed with esophageal or gastric cancer. This anemia is thought to be secondary to blood loss from the tumor, poor oral intake resulting from symptoms of the tumor, and impaired iron absorption secondary to neoplasia induced inflammatory processes. Patients undergoing palliative chemotherapy ...

Thalassemia is a type of hemolytic anemia disease caused by genetic defect of synthesis in one or more globin chains. Among all the single genetic disorders, thalassemia has the highest incidence rate in the world and causes heavy burdens on public health system. In China, the southern provinces suffer from ...

The Aim: to assess the effect of treatment of preoperative anaemia with intravenous iron on haematological parameters for patients after elective colorectal surgery. Primary Hypothesis: postoperative treatment with intravenous iron increases the levels of haemoglobin, ferritin, red cell count and is superior compared to placebo. Secondary effects: treatment with intravenous ...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of acute intravenous iron administration on the endothelial function in non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease stages G3-G5 patients with anemia and iron deficiency, in relation to changes in oxidative and nitrosative status.

After approval of the "Ethics Committee" of the obstetrics and gynecology department of the faculty of medicine Cairo University, a clinical trial will be started in which pregnant patients with iron deficiency anemia will be recruited out of the antenatal care clinic. Routine complete blood count (CBC) is done early ...

Iron deficiency anemia is a common complication in patients who underwent gastrectomy and leads to a deterioration in patient's quality of life. Therefore iron supplementation is one of the important treatments in postgastrectomy patients. Taking an oral iron is an option for iron supplementation, but the postgastrectomy patients has poor ...
