Hypochromic microcytic anemia: a clincopathological cross-sectional study

Alexandria Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
Background Iron-deficiency anemia, the most common cause of microcytic anemia, is a worldwide nutritional problem; its prevalence in the developing countries is three times higher than in the developed countries.

Microcytic hypochromic anemias

Postgraduate Medicine, 1977
Iron 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

PRIMARY HYPOCHROMIC ANEMIA

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, 1968
When 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.

Hypochromic Anemia Secondary to Leeching

New England Journal of Medicine, 1957
IN this era of specific therapy the medical interest aroused by the intensive application of leeches for therapeutic purposes is considerable. We have had the opportunity to observe a woman who treated herself with leeches for over three years before a severe hypochromic anemia caused her to be hospitalized.

Differential Diagnosis of Hypochromic Anemias

Postgraduate Medicine, 1971
Hypochromic 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

Heme Synthesis and Hypochromic Anemia

New England Journal of Medicine, 1969
Anemia with hypochromic red cells is generally attributable to impaired hemoglobin synthesis at one of several biochemical levels. In iron-deficiency anemia the substrate iron is in poor supply, and in the hypochromic anemia sometimes encountered with infectious, inflammatory or other debilitating diseases, there is evidence for ineffective use of ...

Sex-Linked Anemia: A Hypochromic Anemia of Mice

Science, 1966
This 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

1983
Thirty 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.
