Abstract

A recent case of severe, but reversible, hypoplastic anemia was associated temporally with lindane exposure. A series of 46 cases of hematotoxicity associated with lindane is reviewed, and the weaknesses in the indictment of lindane as the causative agent are pointed out. A more rational policy for control of agents suspected of damaging bone marrow awaits improved understanding of pathogenetic mechanisms.

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
