Demographic and hematologic pattern of acute myeloid leukemia patients from lower Punjab area of Pakistan
Journal Title: Pakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Research - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Purpose of this study was to evaluate the demographic and hematologic pattern of acute myeloid leukemia patients from lower Punjab area. Treatment of the acute myeloid leukemia patients is related with the unsatisfactory rates of complete responses that usually as short lived. At the relapse of leukemia patients the evaluation of investigational treatment strategies, therapeutic decision making by clinically useful prognostic index. All the hematological techniques were applied to increase the life expectancy of the leukemia patients. The study concluded that acute myeloid leukemia was prevalent in local population especially in males as compared to females. All the patients had varied complete blood count (CBC) profiles. The hematological tests are used to characterize the disease for its management and treatment to increase the life expectancy of the patients.
