At OMICS, the journals are peer-reviewed by eminent professors from varied disciplines. We make every effort to ensure that research done on ‘Anemia’ is genuine and well-informative. Also, OMICS Group has instituted a reward program that gives scientific credits to the noted scientists.
Occurrence of Anemia
Anaemia
is a situation that occurs when the blood vessels in an individual contain inadequate
healthy red blood tissues. These tissues are the main transporters of oxygen to
the body parts in our body. The immediate sign of Anemia is fatigue which
happens since the individual’s body parts receive inadequate levels of oxygen.
Mostly,
people with chronic diseases are prone to Anemia. Some of the important factors
that influence Anemia are:
·
Certain types of anaemia are genetic and babies may be
affected from the time of birth.
·
Due to blood loss at menstruation, women are vulnerable to a
form of anaemia called iron-deficiency anaemia and during pregnancy it increases
the blood supply.
·
Poor diet and other medical conditions trigger Anemia in aged
people.
Through bleeding there is a loss of Red blood cells
which can happen gradually over some time, and can often go undetected. This
type of chronic bleeding leads to:
·
Digestive conditions like ulcers, hemorrhoids
and intestinal cancer.
·
Periods and giving birth in women,
especially, if menstruation blood loss is extreme and if there are several
pregnancies.
Anaemia caused by faulty red blood cell production:
When the body produces a few blood tissues then in
such a condition the body may not function effectively. Due to the presence of irregular red blood cells, the Red blood cells may be faulty and the
vitamins which are required for red blood cells to work effectively.
Iron deficiency anaemia:
Due to lack of mineral iron in the body, the Iron
deficiency anaemia occurs. Bone marrow which is found in the middle of long
bones in the body needs iron for making the hemoglobin and the red blood cells
transport oxygen to the organs of the body. Hemoglobin cannot be produced
without adequate level of iron for red blood cells which leads to iron
deficiency anaemia.
