Background: Iron deficiency (ID) is the most common nutritional deficiency among patients undergoing major surgery. Treatment of ID is straightforward, however implementing a comprehensive anemia management strategy within clinical routines is complex. Recently, reticulocyte hemoglobin content (Ret-He) has been evaluated as an early marker for ID diagnosis.

Background/objectives: Dysgeusia contributes to malnutrition and worsens the quality of life of patients with cancer. Despite the different strategies, there is no effective treatment for patients suffering from taste disorders provided by the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, we developed a novel strategy for reducing side effects in cancer patients by providing a novel food supplement with the taste-modifying glycoprotein miraculin, which is approved by the European Union, as an adjuvant to medical-nutritional therapy.

The hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway has been demonstrated to play a pivotal role in the process of high-altitude adaptation. PHD2, a key regulator of the HIF pathway, has been found to be associated with erythropoiesis. However, the relationship between changes in Phd2 abundance and erythroid differentiation under hypoxic conditions remains to be elucidated.

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are routinely used to treat hematological malignancies; however, long-term treatment with GCs can lead to atrophic and metabolic adverse effects. Selective glucocorticoid receptor agonists (SEGRAs) with reduced side effects may act as a superior alternative to GCs. More than 30 SEGRAs have been described so far, yet none of them reached clinical trials for anti-cancer treatment.

The present study investigated the clinical and hematological effects of chronic lead exposure in the population residing in Shadi Pura, a small industrial zone in Lahore, Pakistan. A cross-sectional analysis of 149 participants recruited through health camps was conducted to explore the hematological manifestations of environmental lead exposure, focusing on various red blood cell (RBC) indices and morphology. Moreover, the study examined the differences in the impact of lead exposure on RBC indices and morphology between men, women, and children.
