ABSTRACT Background Soluble forms of progenitor cell receptors may be implicated in the delayed erythropoietic response during severe anemia.

Blood samples were drawn for estimation complete blood count tests. The prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin...
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) individuals are at a higher risk of developing complications, with approximately 80% complication-related mortality. The increased morbidity and mortality among T2DM patients partly due to dysregulated hemostasis. This study determined the quality glycemic control in its association markers coagulation inhibitors fibrinolysis.
