  • Title: Erythroblastic islands in the bone marrow of rheumatoid arthritis with anaemia.
    Author: Trotta F, Menegale G, Bariani L, Marchi R, Talassi E, Castaldi G.
    Journal: Clin Exp Rheumatol; 1984; 2(1):37-40. PubMed ID: 6532611.
    Abstract:
    An increase of erythroblastic islands with recognizable central macrophages was observed in bone marrow of six rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients suffering from anaemia. Since erythroblastic islands are more prominent in anaemic conditions associated with ineffective erythropoiesis, it is possible that this morphological finding might be an expression of the increased ineffective erythropoiesis observed in RA patients with anaemia.
