A Study of Indications, Clinical Applications, and Effects of Therapeutic Phlebotomy at a Tertiary Care Hospital Navi Mumbai

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine
Background and Objectives: The removal of blood from the body is known as phlebotomy, venesection, or bloodletting. Therapeutic phlebotomy is the preferred treatment for blood disorders where removing red blood cells or serum iron is the most effective ...

Dendritic cell‐specific hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α deficiency protects mice from recurrent retroviral infection

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Antigen‐processing and ‐presenting cells play a pivotal role in initiation of the antiviral immune response. The cellular adaption of dendritic cells to reduced oxygen and nutrition levels at the site of infection is regulated predominantly by the transcription factor complex hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1 (HIF‐1).

Uniform hyperdense vessels in non-contrast CT of brain: An unusual finding in plain CT scan diagnostic of polycythemia

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2014
Polycythemia is a blood disorder in which the proportion of blood occupied by red blood cells increases. It is reflected in raised hematocrit and hemoglobin values.

Mechanisms of haemoglobin mass expansion following heat stress

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Theorised mechanisms of heat stress‐induced erythropoiesis which may facilitate the expansion of haemoglobin mass. A, acute: heat stress‐induced renal ischaemia. Redistribution of blood flow away from the kidneys to facilitate thermoregulation during heat stress could reduce renal oxygen delivery, subsequently lowering renal PO2${

Association between hemoglobin concentration and hypertension risk in native Tibetans at high altitude

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
Previous studies examining the association between hemoglobin concentration and hypertension have yielded inconsistent results. There is still a lack of evidence regarding the association between hemoglobin concentration and hypertension risk in native ...

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

Endocrine and androgenic response to altitude training in professional cyclists

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Steroidal and endocrine variables are altered during altitude training. Abstract This study investigated endocrine and steroidal blood markers in 31 male elite cyclists monitored over 7 weeks, including a 3 week altitude training camp either at 2050 m (n = 19) or 3000 m (n = 12).

Augmenting erythropoiesis using recombinant human erythropoietin at sea level blunts the high altitude induced increase in erythropoiesis

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.

Temperature Safeguards and Peri‐Procedural Strategies for Stem Cell Collection in Cold Agglutinin Disease: A Case Report and Literature Review

Journal of Clinical Apheresis, Volume 41, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Cold agglutinins can result in red blood cell (RBC) agglutination and lysis at low temperatures. Temperature sensitivity during stem cell mobilization, processing, and infusion poses unique procedural challenges in patients with active cold agglutinins.

Polycythemia at Moderate Altitude: Rethinking Screening for Polycythemia Vera

Journal of Applied Hematology
BACKGROUND: Polycythemia is a clinical condition characterized by increased red blood cell mass (RCM). With the aim to increase the sensitivity of capturing patients with polycythemia vera (PV), the hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) thresholds were ...
