“…In the current study, housewives represented 56.7, 63.3, and 56.7% of cases in the three groups respectively. This is in agreement with the previously mentioned meta-analysis which reported that 61.1% of pregnant females presenting with anemia were housewives (unemployed) [13]. This should raise concern about the risk of iron deficiency anemia in this population.…”

Background: Maternal anemia is frequently associated with premature delivery, reduced neonatal weight, infant iron deficiency, neonatal death, and low Apgar scores at 1 min. It is also suspected to reduce the oxygen supply to the growing fetus, leading to the redistribution of fetal blood flow. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the different types of iron medications given to anemic patients on fetal Doppler indices namely umbilical artery and middle cerebral artery in the late second trimester of pregnancy. Materials and Methods: This cohort prospective study. This study conducted at department of obstetrics and gynecology at Tanta university hospital. Participants consisted of 90 pregnant women during their gestational age (20-28 weeks) they were attended or admitted to obstetric unit.divided into 3 groups. Lactoferrin group included 30 cases received 250 mg lactoferrin capsules once daily for 4 weeks. Iron amino acid chelated group included 30 cases received ferrous bis – glycine chelate (FeBC) 15 mg/day for 4 weeks. Ferrous fumarate group included 30 cases received 350 mg dried ferrous fumarate capsules once daily for 4 weeks. Pre-and post-treatment Doppler measurement of umbilical artery and middle cerebral artery parameter compared 4 weeks after the start of treatment for patients whose anemia successfully treated. Results: Post hoc analysis of maternal serum hemoglobin of the studied groups show insignificant different between the groups. Pre- and Post-treatment follow-up of resistance index (RI) of the studied groups, Pre- and Post-treatment follow-up of pulsatility index (PI) of the studied groups, Post hoc analysis of pulsatility index (PI) of the studied groups and Post hoc analysis of resistance index (RI) of the studied groups show insignificant different between groups. Conclusion: Based on our results, it can be concluded that cerebral vasodilatation due to severe maternal anemia is a reversible condition that can be corrected through the prompt treatment of anemia. Additionally, the three therapeutics tested in the current study showed a comparable effect in treating maternal anemia, with subsequent improvement of doppler indices.

“…Microcytic hypochromic anemia is more common in male (59%) as compared to females (41%) observed in Kerala 11 which observed higher than the current study. In another study, microcytic hypochromic anemia was found 50.47%, normocytic normochromic anemia 47.32%, dimorphic anemia 6.57%, hemolytic anemia 4.04%, macrocytic anemia 3.93 %, pancytopenia 1.06 %, and sickle cell anemia in 0.79 % in which 66.74% were females and 33.25% were males found in a scientific study in Rajkot, Gujarat 12 which was higher than our study. Another scientific study showed that microcytic hypochromic 86 %, dimorphic 9.1 % and, macrocytic 4.9 % in which Females were 61.2 % and Males were 38.8 % found on one scientific study in Tirupati, Andra Pradesh 13 which was higher than the current study.…”

Anemia is considered a condition, not a disease in which numbers of red blood cells (RBCs) are insufficient to meet the body's metabolical and physiological needs for oxygen. Anemia may also develop due to nutritional deficiencies such as iron, vitamin B12, folic acid, and vitamin A; moderate and severe inflammation; parasitic infestation; and acquired or inherited disorders that affect hemoglobin synthesis, red blood cell development or red blood cell endurance. This proposed work depicts the distribution of different morphological types of anemia on people of Gurugram, Haryana. All the samples were analyzed for CBC and peripheral blood smear by using Sysmax (three parts) hematology analyzer and microscopy. In the present study, 300 patients in 6 months study period were included to diagnose anemia. Only 166 cases were positive. Out of 166 cases, 85 (51.2%) were female and 81 (48.8%) were male. The highest number of participants showed RBCs count in the range of 4.5-5.5 million/mm 3 , 24 (14.5%) with P value 0.000. Most of the cases that we revealed were having hypochromic red cells along with morphological variation in RBCs which may be due to iron deficiency. The further confirmatory analysis may be required in order to know the detail classification of anemia.

“…Anaemia is more prevalent in developing countries because of poor nutrition habits, infections, and diseases that may cause widespread health problems (6). Anaemia, being one of the world's most widespread health problems, has brought serious economic consequences and obstacles to national development by affecting more than 30% of the world population, especially pregnant women and children (7,8). Anaemia negatively affects normal development in children, and this constitutes a major health challenge in developing countries (9).…”

Introduction: Ficus capensis has been used in traditional medicine to treat anaemia, tuberculosis, convulsion, pains, wounds, respiratory disorders, and other health challenges. This study investigated the effect of F. capensis ethanolic leaf extract in phenylhydrazine (PHZ)-induced anaemia in Wistar rats. Methods: Induction of anaemia was done by intraperitoneal administration of PHZ (40 mg/kg for 48 hours). A normal group and an anaemic group were treated daily with a single dose of 20 mL/kg of distilled water and considered as control and anaemic (non-treated) groups. Then, the remaining groups were treated with 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg of ethanol extract of F. capensis leaves for 21 days, respectively. Blood samples from the rats were run in three batches of baseline, post anaemia induction, and post-treatment. Phytochemical screening and acute toxicity tests of the extract were also carried out following standard procedures. Results: The results showed a consistent significant increase in haematological parameters among various experimental groups. Haemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell (RBC) count, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), packed cell volume (PCV), mean cell haemoglobin (MCH) and Mean cell haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) values of treated rats were significantly increased compared to the anaemic control. The secondary metabolites of leaf extract were alkaloids, saponins, tannins, steroids, flavonoids, phenols, and reducing sugar, while the acute toxicity test was found to be non-toxic at 5000 mg/kg in rats. Conclusion: The ethanol leaf extract of F. capensis might provide an alternative cure for anaemia and boosts blood count.
