2 Anemias Over 30 types Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Polycythemia Leukemia AML:M6

3 Two approaches RBC size MCV Microcytic Normocytic Macrocytic Balance between i production & h destruction Requires many lab tests All data must be in to make diagnosis

5 Iron Metabolism Problems Iron testing DISEASE SERUM FERRITIN (NG/ML) SERUM IRON (UG/DL) IRON-BIND CAPACITY (UG/DL) TRANS. SATUR. (%) TISSUE IRON STORES Normal Iron Deficiency Anemia Male female Sideroblastic Anemia Anemia of Inflammation -N

6 Thalassemias QUANTITATIVE reduction in Hb synthesis 6 normal human globin genes Alpha, beta, gamma, delta (epsilon, zeta) About 435 mutations 2 major types of thalassemia Alpha thalassemia Beta thalassemia Suspect when Inherited Mediterranean nationality Normal iron studies

7 Thalassemia

8 Thalassemia Alpha-Thalassemia Reduction in alpha containing Hb HbA, HbA 2, HbF Increase in non-alpha containing Hb Hb Barts ( g 4 ), HbH ( b 4 ) Beta Thalassemia Reduction in beta containing Hb HbA Increase in non-beta containing Hb HbA 2, HbF

10 Hemoglobinopathies QUALITATIVE change in Hb amino acid sequence Over 1,000 mutations Most cause little to no symptoms Most common types Sickle cell (HbS) (valine for glutamic acid at 6 th position) HbC (Lysine for glutamic acid at 6 th position) HbE (Lysine for glutamic acid at 26 th position) HbO (Lysine for glutamic acid at 121 st position) HbD (Glutamine for glutamic acid at 121 st position)
