Determinants of Anemia among Children Aged 6–59 Months Living in Kilte Awulaelo Woreda, Northern Ethiopia by Gebremedhin Gebreegziabiher, Belachew Etana, Daniel Niggusie

“…The mean hemoglobin level was 11.48 g/dl and about 37.3% of children were anemic. Children who were aged 6–23 months [AOR = 1.89: 95% CI (1.3, 2.8)], underweight [AOR = 2.05: 95% CI (1.3, 3.3)], having MUAC less than 12 cm [AOR = 3.35: 95% CI (2.1, 5.3)], and from households with annual income below 10,000 Ethiopian birr [AOR = 4.86: 95% CI (3.2, 7.3)] were more likely to become anemic. …”

Effects of Acute Normovolemic Anemia on Hemodynamic Parameters and Acid-Base Balance in Dogs by Tatiana Champion, Glaucia Bueno Pereira Neto, Aparecido Antonio Camacho

“…The cardiac output was measured by Doppler echocardiography and blood pressure by oscillometric device, and posteriorly hemodynamic parameters were calculated. The anemic groups had increase in cardiac index (P<.05) (3.82±1.05 to 5.86±1.49 and 5.81±1.63 L/min × m2) and decreases (P<.05) in the indices of total peripheral resistance (6797.81±3060.22 to 3220.14±1275.02 and 3887.74±1394.89 dina⋅seg/cm5 × m2) and oxygen delivery (7942.84±3344.00 to 4021.68±1627.00 and 4430.82±1402.61 mL/min × m2), respectively. …”

A Pregnant Woman with Excess Vasopressinase-Induced Diabetes Insipidus Complicated by Central Diabetes Insipidus like Lymphocytic Infundibulo-Neurohypophysitis by Shinnosuke Yanagisawa, Yoichi Oikawa, Mai Endo, Kazuyuki Inoue, Ritsuko Nakajima, Shigemitsu Yasuda, Masayasu Sato, Naoko Iwata, Haruki Fujisawa, Atsushi Suzuki, Yoshihisa Sugimura, Masashi Isshiki, Akira Shimada

“…The patient’s serum vasopressinase level just before delivery was 2,855 ng/mL, more than 1,000 times the upper limit of the normal range, suggesting excess vasopressinase-induced DI. The presence of anti-rabphilin-3A antibodies in the patient’s blood, a hypertonic saline infusion test result, and loss of the high-intensity signal of the posterior pituitary on fat-suppressed T1-weighted magnetic resonance images without thickening of the stalk and enlargement of the neurohypophysis suggested concurrent central DI-like lymphocytic infundibulo-neurohypophysitis (LINH). …”
