RED BLOOD CELL DISTRIBUTION WIDTH: FURTHER INSIGHTS [PDF]

Innov Aging
Abstract Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) measures erythrocyte size variability and strongly predicts cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. Our prior cross-sectional analysis showed that inflammation, metabolic rate, and body habitus are independently associated with RDW.

Diagnostic value of red blood cell distribution width, platelet distribution width, and red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio in children with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, 2021
AbstractBackgroundTo investigate whether red blood cell distribution width (RDW), platelet distribution width (PDW), and red blood cell distribution width to platelet ratio (RPR) can serve as biomarkers to distinguish hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) from sepsis in children.MethodsThis is a retrospective study, involving 71 HLH patients, 105 ...

Association Between Red Blood Cell Distribution Width and Thyroid Function [PDF]

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
AimRed blood cell distribution width (RDW) is an important parameter with broad biological implications. However, the study investigating the association between RDW and thyroid function remains sparse and inconsistent. We aimed to investigate the association between RDW and thyroid function in the US population.MethodsA cross-sectional analysis was ...

Red blood cell distribution width and ischaemic stroke [PDF]

Stroke and Vascular Neurology, 2017
The red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a measure of red blood cell (RBC) size heterogeneity, which is easily calculated by dividing the SD of erythrocyte volumes for the mean corpuscular volume. Recent reporter suggested that, besides haematological diseases and anaemia, many human disorders may be closely associated with the elevated RDW.

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine, 2022
Introduction: Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), is causing dramatic morbidity and mortality worldwide. The Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW) has been strongly associated with increased morbidity and mortality in multiple diseases.

Red blood cell distribution width in pregnancy: a systematic review [PDF]

Biochemia Medica, 2018
Anisocytosis has been associated with the severity and prognosis of several acute and chronic diseases, as well as physiological conditions such as pregnancy. Anisocytosis is quantified by the red blood cell distribution width (RDW), expressed as the ratio, multiplied by 100, between the standard deviation (SD) of red blood cell volumes and the mean ...

Association of the Red Cell Distribution Width with Red Blood Cell Deformability [PDF]

, 2012
The red cell distribution width (RDW) is a component of the automated complete blood count (CBC) that quantifies heterogeneity in the size of circulating erythrocytes. Higher RDW values reflect greater variation in red blood cell (RBC) volumes and are associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. The mechanisms underlying this

Elevated Red Blood Cell Distribution width in Healthy Smokers

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2013
Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) has been reported to be a marker of morbidity and mortality for some cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases. We aimed to evaluate RDW values in otherwise healthy smokers.Two hundred and twenty consecutive subjects with current smoking and 230 age- and gender-matched healthy subjects without smoking history were ...

Metabolomic Signatures of High Red Blood Cell Distribution Width [PDF]

Innovation in Aging, 2020
Abstract Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) describes the amount of variation in blood cell volume and size and increases with age. Higher RDW predicts all-cause mortality, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and markers of glycemic control, such as glycosylated hemoglobin.
