An auto - immune disease (autoimmune hemolytic anemia) is a common cause
of hemolysis in older adult pets, particularly dogs.
Deconstructing sickle cell disease: reappraisal of the role
of hemolysis in the development of clinical subphenotypes
Not exact matches
Hemolysis, elevated liver enzyme levels and a low platelet count are characteristics
of this illness and can place both mother and baby's lives
in danger.
HELLP syndrome is named for its primary symptoms:
Hemolysis (H), or the breakdown
of red blood cells, elevated liver enzymes (EL), and low platelet count (LP) occurring
in pregnancy.
The term HELLP is an anagram, made up
of the first letters
of the three main signs
of the illness:
Hemolysis (the breakdown
of red blood cells
in the body), Elevated Liver function, and Low Platelet count (which contributes to poor blood clotting).
G6PD deficiency has been associated with an increased risk
of hemolysis, hyperbilirubinemia, and kernicterus.209 Mothers who breastfeed infants with known or suspected G6PD deficiency should not ingest fava beans or medications such as nitrofurantoin, primaquine phosphate, or phenazopyridine hydrochloride, which are known to induce
hemolysis in deficient individuals.210, 211
In rare cases the bite also can cause a severe illness called systemic loxoscelism, characterized by a blood clotting disorder and
hemolysis, destruction
of red blood cells.
By doing this it reduces
hemolysis, the destruction
of red blood cells,
in patients with PNH.
Fasting was discovered to lead to the reduction
of blood plasma and red cell coagulation, deterioration
of platelet aggregation, a rise
of the oxidized hemoglobin content, and an increase
in red cell resistance to peroxide
hemolysis.
Hemolysis is an acceleration
in the breakdown
of red blood cells, causing a surplus
of depleted cells and iron that can lead to enlarged lymph nodes, spleen or liver.
Hemolysis can falsely increase cholinesterase levels
in serum / plasma samples by releasing more
of these enzymes from destroyed red blood cells.
Deficiency
of this enzyme results primarily
in easily damaged red blood cells (
hemolysis) and less severe damage to skeletal muscle cells.
Additionally,
hemolysis results
in release
of analytes and enzymes from red blood cells (RBCs), which can falsely elevate many test results.5 Destruction
of RBCs yields a lower RBC count.1 Excess fluid released from the lysed RBCs also creates a dilution effect
in serum and can result
in an artifactually decreased packed cell volume.
Hemolysis increases the light absorbance
of blood serum or plasma, which particularly interferes with chemistry tests that read
in the ultraviolet / visible wavelengths.4 Increased free hemoglobin
in plasma can also directly inhibit some chemical reactions.
