Walsh & Hoyt: Erythrocytosis and Polycythemia Vera [PDF]
Erythrocytosis is characterized by elevation of the red blood cell count, hematocrit, and hemoglobin concentration; it may be absolute or apparent. Absolute erythrocytosis results from an increase in total red cell mass and may be further categorized as ...

Blood pressure control and erythrocytosis in rats: theory and observations [PDF]
We compared some of our latest experiments on blood pressure control and erythrocytosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats with Gaar's computer-simulated studies, which suggest that erythrocytosis is a key to understanding the hemodynamic changes in ...

Erythrocytosis is a rare disorder characterized by increased red cell mass and elevated hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit. Several genetic variants have been identified as causes for erythrocytosis in genes belonging to different pathways including

ABSTRACT Anemia of chronic disease (ACD), also referred to as anemia of inflammation, is a prevalent and clinically significant complication of chronic infection, autoimmune disease, malignancy, and chronic kidney disease. It is characterized by inflammation‐driven iron sequestration, impaired erythropoietin (EPO) production and signaling, and ...

The role of PHD2 mutations in the pathogenesis of erythrocytosis [PDF]
The transcription of the erythropoietin (EPO) gene is tightly regulated by the hypoxia response pathway to maintain oxygen homeostasis. Elevations in serum EPO level may be reflected in an augmentation in the red cell mass, thereby causing erythrocytosis.

Nocturnal Sleep Breathing Patterns in Healthy Adolescents Residing at Very High Altitudes in Bolivia
ABSTRACT Data on sleep and respiratory patterns among adolescents residing at very high altitude (> 3500 m) remain scarce, and altitude‐related physiological differences may influence these parameters. Studying adolescents at different very high altitudes is crucial, as subtle environmental variations could affect sleep‐related oxygenation and ...

Physiological Adaptation Buffers Personality‐Linked Psychopathology Under High‐Altitude Hypoxia
Among 129 healthy long‐term residents living at high altitude in Lhasa, Big Five personality traits and hematologic indices (RBC, HGB, and HCT) were clustered into 2 personality profiles and 3 hematologic compensation levels. A 2 × 3 multivariate general linear model showed a specific interaction on SCL‐90 psychoticism: within the high compensation ...

A Case of Myomatous Erythrocytosis Syndrome Associated with a Large Uterine Leiomyoma
Several etiologies have been proposed for erythrocytosis associated with uterine leiomyoma. We report a case of erythrocytosis associated with a large uterine leiomyoma, in which specific immunostaining for erythropoietin was positive.

ABSTRACT Brain abscess is an uncommon but life‐threatening intracranial infection that most often arises from contiguous spread but may also occur through hematogenous dissemination in patients with congenital heart disease. This is usually associated with defects that permit right‐to‐left shunting of septic emboli.

Erythrocytosis in congenital heart defects: hints for diagnosis and therapy from a clinical case
Erythrocytosis is one of the most common abnormalities that clinical hematologists, general practitioners, and internal medicine specialists could have to face off in their routine clinical practice.
