Hepcidin, a peptide produced by hepatocytes, regulates body iron homeostasis. Inflammation increases serum hepcidin, and its determination can be useful in the differential diagnosis of anemias during inflammatory diseases.We measured hepcidin-25 hepcidin-20 isoforms 54 patients with bowel diseases (IBD) reference subjects (36 healthy controls 18 anemic without inflammation or renal failure). Disease activity, blood counts, status, erythropoiesis-related parameters were obtained for all...
Long term central vascular accesses are frequently used in the common clinical practice for drug infusion or sample taking; nevertheless they expose patient to possible severe complications, mainly infectious and thrombotic ones. This case report summarizes main complications directly indirectly linked long-term permanence of device, highlights importance an accurate evaluation risk-benefit ratio catheter placement adequate knowledge about maintenance device.
L’anemia e tra le piu frequenti manifestazioni extraintestinali nei pazienti affetti da malattia infiammatoria intestinale. La diagnosi differenziale anemia carenza di ferro infiammazione cronica in questi assume un’importanza fondamentale nella scelta terapeutica; puo risultare altresi particolarmente difficoltosa, poiche spesso entrambi i meccanismi patogenetici contribuiscono all’anemizzazione nel medesimo paziente.
