The anemia is caused by manydifferent chronic diseases or inflammation (e.g., cancer, chronic kidney disease, congestive heartfailure, and infections).QUESTIONAplastic AnemiaAnswer:A rare but serious type of anemia that is a result of the bone marrow failing to producemultipotent hematopoietic stem cell precursors. This leads to a lack of erythrocytes, leukocytes,and platelets, which is referred to as pancytopenia.QUESTIONB12Answer:Requisite for RBC production. Low levels: deficiency. High levels: liver disease;myeloproliferative disorders.QUESTIONBasophil

It accomplishes its functions through its variouscomponentsthe plasma (liquid protein), leukocytes (white blood cells), erythrocytes (red bloodcells), and thrombocytes (platelets).QUESTIONBurkitt LymphomaAnswer:Type of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Origin: B lymphocytes. Most linked to EBV.Epidemiology, U.S.: 40%; More common in males; Age 5-10 years; peak 4-6 yearsCommon clinical presentation: Abdominal mass, pain, nausea, vomiting, & change in bowelpatterns. Rapid growing head and neck lymphadenopathySpecial notes: One of the most aggressive fast-growing cancers. Cases in Africa account foralmost all NHL. Over 50% of childhood cancers develop in the jaw or other facial bones.QUESTIONDisseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC)Answer:Complex, acquired disorder in which clotting and hemorrhage simultaneously occur

Synthetic EPO is used in some anemias such as thosecaused by chronic renal failure or chemotherapy.; 2 ESAs used in tx of anemia in cancerQUESTIONErythrocytesAnswer:red blood cells; Disk-shaped cells that carry oxygen to tissues and transport carbon dioxide outof the tissues for its subsequent removal from the body. Erythrocytes contain proteins such ashemoglobin, which binds to oxygen, giving blood its red color. The brighter the shade of red, themore the blood is saturated with oxygen. Hematocrit refers to how much of the blood volumecomprises erythrocytes.QUESTIONErythropoietin (EPO)Answer:hormone (growth factor) secreted by the kidney to stimulate the production of red blood cells bybone marrowQUESTION

Also called The Tissue Factor Pathway.QUESTIONFerritinAnswer:iron storage proteinQUESTIONFolateAnswer:Requisite for RBC production Low: deficiency; B9QUESTIONFolic AcidAnswer:a water-soluble B vitamin is eliminated in urine, and a small quantity (0.5 to 20 mg) is stored inthe body.QUESTIONHematocrit (Hct)Answer:Percent of intact RBCs in whole blood Low: anemia High: polycythemiaNormal levels:• Females 37-47%
