Microcytic hypochromic anemias
Postgraduate Medicine, 1977Iron deficiency, by far the most common cause of microcytic anemia, may be traced to abnormal bleeding, rapid growth, or rarely, inadequate diet. A search for the source of abnormal bleeding is particularly important because it may lead to detection of an ulcer or cancer. Orally administered iron supplements usually are effective; parenteral therapy is

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1933
In the past few years, interest has developed in a "new" type of primary or idiopathic anemia. This disease, characterized by the presence, usually in middle-aged women, of pallor, weakness, atrophied tongue, brittle finger nails, achlorhydria and hypochromic ("secondary") anemia, responding readily to large doses of iron and tending to spontaneous ...

Hallmarks of Hypochromic Anemias
Postgraduate Medicine, 1968When red blood cells mature faster than hemoglobin is synthesized, an anemia with small pale red cells often results. It may be an iron-deficiency or sideroblastic anemia or thalassemia. In iron-deficiency anemia plasma iron is low and plasma iron-binding capacity increased.

Differential Diagnosis of Hypochromic Anemias
Postgraduate Medicine, 1971Hypochromic anemia is not synonymous with iron-deficiency anemia. Hypochromia usually occurs in patients with depleted body iron stores, but it may also occur in the presence of adequate iron stores. Factors other than iron deficiency must be considered in the differential diagnosis. Iron-deficiency anemia is the only hypochromic anemia associated with

Sex-Linked Anemia: A Hypochromic Anemia of Mice
Science, 1966This hereditary anemia is most severe in young mice and tends to diminish with increasing age. Erythrocytes show great variation in size and form, with hypochromia and formation of target cells. Though the anemia occurs on a normal diet, it responds rapidly to iron-dextran injection. It may represent an unusual primary disturbance of iron metabolism.

Refractory Hypochromic Anemias
1983Thirty to forty years ago a group of diseases was described in which a hypochromic anemia occurred that did not respond to iron therapy. The anemia was attributed to disturbed iron utilization. It has later become evident that the common feature of this group of anemias is a disturbance of heme synthesis.

HYPOCHROMIC ANEMIA WITH ACHLORHYDRIA
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1931In contrast to hyperchromic anemia with achlorhydria, commonly called pernicious anemia, hypochromic anemia with achlorhydria has received comparatively little attention. This is due principally, it would seem, to three factors. 1. This type of anemia is so readily confused with other hypochromic anemias that it often is not recognized. Many physicians
