Relationships Between Chemoreflex Responses, Sleep Quality, and Hematocrit in Andean Men and Women. [PDF]

, 2020
Andean highlanders are challenged by chronic hypoxia and many exhibit elevated hematocrit (Hct) and blunted ventilation compared to other high-altitude populations.

Increased body fat content in horses alters metabolic and physiological exercise response, decreases performance, and increases locomotion asymmetry

Physiological Reports, 2021
This study examined the effect of altered body weight (BW) and body fat content on exercise performance and recovery. Nine horses were divided into two groups, and changes in BW and fat content were induced by feeding a high (HA) or restricted (RA ...

A novel, nondestructive, dried blood spot-based hematocrit prediction method using noncontact diffuse reflectance spectroscopy [PDF]

, 2016
Dried blood spot (DBS) sampling is recognized as a valuable alternative sampling strategy both in research and in clinical routine. Although many advantages are associated with DBS sampling, its more widespread use is hampered by several issues, of which

Predicting optimal hematocrit in silico [PDF]

, 2018
Optimal hematocrit $H_o$ maximizes oxygen transport. In healthy humans, the average hematocrit $H$ is in the range of 40-45$\%$, but it can significantly change in blood pathologies such as severe anemia (low $H$) and polycythemia (high $H$). Whether the

Whole-Body Prolyl Hydroxylase Domain (PHD) 3 Deficiency Increased Plasma Lipids and Hematocrit Without Impacting Plaque Size in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor Knockout Mice

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Background and aims: Atherosclerosis is an important cause of clinical cardiovascular events. Atherosclerotic plaques are hypoxic, and reoxygenation improves plaque phenotype.

Prevalence and chemotherapy of babesiosis among Lohi sheep in the Livestock Experiment Station, Qadirabad, Pakistan, and environs

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2010
A total of 310 blood smears were collected from sheep of the Livestock Experiment Station, Qadirabad, Sahiwal district, Pakistan, and surrounding areas. The samples were examined microscopically and 30 (9.67%) were positive for babesiosis.

A New Approach to Model Confined Suspensions Flows in Complex Networks: Application to Blood Flow [PDF]

, 2010
The modeling of blood flows confined in micro-channels or micro-capillary beds depends on the interactions between the cell-phase, plasma and the complex geometry of the network.

Abnormally hyperdense intracranial vessels on non-contrast computed tomography scan simulating dural venous sinus thrombosis in a case with high hematocrit

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2013
Abnormal hyperdensity of intracranial blood vessels on non-contrast computed tomography scan (NCCT) may be found in cases with raised hematocrit. This finding not only simulates the appearance of a contrast enhanced CT scan but also may mimic dural ...

Hematocrit and Incidence of Venous Thromboembolism [PDF]

Blood, 2019
Background. Polycythemia vera patients with high hematocrit have increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). We tested whether high hematocrit in the general population is also associated with elevated VTE risk. Methods. The prospective Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study performed a complete blood count in 13,891 adults
