The role of red blood cell distribution width in cardiovascular and thrombotic disorders
Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2012AbstractThe red blood cell (RBC) distribution width (RDW) is a measurement of the size variation as well as an index of the heterogeneity of the erythrocytes (i.e., anysocytosis), which is typically used in combination with the mean corpuscular volume to troubleshoot the cause of an underlying anemia.

Change in red blood cell distribution width with iron deficiency
Clinical & Laboratory Haematology, 1989Red cell volume distribution width (RDW-CV) was examined as a means of diagnosing iron deficiency. Iron deficiency was classified as iron deficiency anaemia, prelatent or latent iron deficiency in 1648 students. MCV and RDW-CV (mean +/- ISD) in each group were 89 +/- 4 ft, 12.7 +/- 0.7% in normal individuals, 89 +/- 4 fl, 13.2 +/- 0.8% in prelatent ...

The effect of shift work on red blood cell distribution width
Physiology & Behavior, 2015Limited research demonstrates that shift work (e.g., evening shift, night shift, rotating shift) increases the risk of certain health outcomes, such as hypertriglyceridemia and metabolic syndrome. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), which is commonly assessed and reported by physicians, is a novel biomarker of cardiovascular disease.

Cobalamin Deficiency and Red Blood Cell Volume Distribution Width
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1990To the Editor . —I read with interest the recent report by Carmel 1 and the accompanying editorial by Herbert 2 addressing the likely underestimated occurrence of clinically significant cobalamin deficiency. This occurs even in the presence of only mildly depressed serum cobalamin levels, normal or low mean corpuscular volumes, and normal hemoglobin ...

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in ‘Non-Dippers’ versus ‘Dippers’
Cardiology, 2012<b><i>Objectives:</i></b> Because both high red cell distribution width (RDW) and non-dipping hypertension are closely related to adverse cardiovascular outcomes and higher inflammatory status, we aimed to investigate whether there is any relationship between RDW and dipping/non-dipping hypertension status.

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Saphenous Vein Graft Disease
Canadian Journal of Cardiology, 2013Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is related to morbidity and mortality in a wide spectrum of conditions, including atherosclerotic processes. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the significance of RDW in saphenous vein graft disease (SVGD), in which atherosclerosis plays an important pathophysiological role.In all, 90 patients were ...

High red blood cell distribution width is associated with the metabolic syndrome
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2016OBJECTIVES: High values of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width (RDW) have been associated with adverse outcome in various clinical settings. The mechanism behind this association is not clear. The Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder that increases the risk for cardiovascular disease and death. The aim of our study was to evaluate

Red Blood Cell Distribution Width Index in Some Hematologic Diseases
American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1985The red blood cell distribution width index (RDW) was determined in a group of anemic male patients and normal male blood donors. Elevated mean RDW values were found in the anemic patients, with the highest value seen in sickle cell anemia, sickle cell-beta thalassemia, sickle cell trait, beta-thalassemia trait, and iron deficiency in decreasing order ...

Sleep Duration and Sleep Disorder with Red Blood Cell Distribution Width
American Journal of Health Behavior, 2015To examine the association of sleep duration and sleep disorder with red blood cell distribution width (RDW).Data from the 2005-2012 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were used, including 17,621 adults. A questionnaire was used to assess sleep duration and sleep disorder, with a blood sample used to assess RDW.Compared to persons getting
