Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 5

Abstract

The present study includes 36 anemic and 30 control subjects. The level of serum iron, hemoglobin, RBC count, and sodium are lower in anemic patients as compared to control subjects, whereas serum calcium and glucose-6 phosphate dehydrogenase (6-PDH) had shown no significant difference between the anemic and control non anemic groups. A positive correlation of serum iron with serum potassium level was found in the anemic group.
