Utility of serum lactate dehydrogenase in the diagnosis of megaloblastic anemia [PDF]
Background: Megaloblastc anemia corresponds to severe macrocytic anemia with hypersegmented neutrophils and very high serum Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH). The present study was undertaken to evaluate the utility of serum LDH and chloroform inhibited serum ...

Megaloblastic Anemia of Pregnancy: Characteristics of Pure Megaloblastic Anemia and Megaloblastic Anemia Associated with Iron Deficiency [PDF]
Abstract Morphology of the peripheral blood and bone marrow, iron, folic acid and vitamin B12 metabolism and estimation of erythrokinetics have been made in 17 patients with megaloblastic anemia of pregnancy. The peripheral blood showed the classic picture of megaloblastic anemia of pregnancy previously reported.

Evaluation of Thrombocytopenia in Megaloblastic Anemia by Platelet Indices and Megakaryocytes- Comparison with Hypoproduction and Hyperdestruction [PDF]
Introduction: Thrombocytopenia may result from many mechanisms such as: marrow hypoplasia (decreased megakaryocytes), ineffective thrombopoiesis (normal to increased megakaryocytes) and increased destruction of platelets (increased megakaryocytes ...
