    Abstract:
    Functional parameters of the whole blood oxygen loading from 66 anemic subjects, compared with those from 66 normal adult of both sexes display the following behaviour: a) Adult males and females differ for p50 values, which are higher in females because of their lower Hb level. This difference is already well known and appears to be statistically significant. b) The same difference is amplified in anemic subjects, where also pH lowering contributes to the right-shift of p50. c) The inverse relationship between p50 and DPG values differs if analysed at the actual pHs, at pH corrected at 7.4, or extrapolated from Bohr effect. In fact, the three relative plots do not parallel, and their most significant intersects drop around 0.8-0.9 value of DPG, and 26-27 torr of p50, i.e. within normal limits.
