Title: Studies on human fascioliasis in Egypt. 2. Serum iron and copper in chronic fascioliasis. Author: Salem A, Osman M, Kandil M, Abaza M, Elewa S. Journal: J Egypt Soc Parasitol; 1993 Aug; 23(2):357-64. PubMed ID: 8376852. Abstract: Twenty-three patients diagnosed as established fascioliasis were enrolled in the present study. Fasciolia cases were investigated for serum iron, copper and their carrier proteins together with haemoglobin and some blood indices. A significant reduction in serum iron was detected in the examined group. This reveals the occurrence of iron deficiency anaemia in patients with chronic fascioliasis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
