Anemia Of Inflammation

Sialolithiasis is a chronic disease in which a sialolith (salivary stone) causes recurrent inflammation of the affected salivary gland. Anemia of inflammation is a well-described pathology in which a chronic inflammatory disease leads to a reduction in the red blood cell count, hemoglobin and hematocrit values. In this retrospective cohort study, we aim to find whether removal of the sialolith and alleviation of the inflammation affect the complete blood count results. We examined data regarding forty-nine patients who underwent surgery for the removal of a submandibular gland sialolith using the duct-stretching technique. Complete blood counts two years before and after the surgical procedure were collected. The average pre-procedure and post-procedure values were calculated for each patient to establish the average blood profile. The pre- and post-procedure values were compared to evaluate the effect of the surgical treatment on the blood profile. We found that the average blood count values for patients with sialolithiasis were towards the lower end of the normal range. Post-surgery, a significant increase in hematocrit, hemoglobin and red blood cell count was observed, which was more pronounced in the older age group and in patients with co-morbidities. We conclude that sialolith removal surgery is associated with significant improvement in the complete blood count values, especially in the elderly and in patients and with co-morbidities. The speculated pathogenesis is relative anemia of inflammation.

Red Blood Cell Distribution

Aim: Anemia is a public health problem worldwide. Cost effectiveness and efficient use of resources are vitally important. Red blood cell distribution width, which can be obtained from a standard complete blood count, is a measure of the variability in size of circulating erythrocytes. The present study was performed to investigate whether red blood cell distribution width can be used to predict response to iron therapy. Methods: This study was conducted in 50 patients admitted to hematology and family medicine clinics. Complete blood count and reticulocyte count were determined on day 5; complete blood count was examined 1 month after commencement of therapy. Results: Statistically significant differences were detected between hemoglobin levels and red blood cell distribution width values at the time of diagnosis and on day 5 and after 1 month of therapy. A significant positive correlation was found between the increase in red blood cell distribution width and the increase in hemoglobin. Conclusion: Red blood cell distribution width may be used in place of reticulocyte count to predict response to iron therapy. Red blood cell distribution width is the best biomarker for this purpose as a component of complete blood count, and therefore it may be accepted as superior to reticulocyte count.

Abstract The morphology of erythrocytes, trombocytes, monocytes, basophils and lymphocytes on Moorish geckos (Tarentola mauritanica) is quite similar to that of other reptiles, even though some peculiarities were detected for heterophils and eosinophils. Moreover, we found a fourth type of granulocyte whose morphology highly differs from both heterophils and eosinophils. Sexually-based differences in the relative abundance of different types of leukocytes was detected: lymphocytes were the most frequent in females, while heterophils and eosinophils prevailed in males. Interestingly, in most individuals we found intra-erythrocytic vacuoles whose structure is similar to that previously described as Chelonoplasma in tortoises and Serpentoplasma in snakes.
