Some of hematclogical and biochemical parameters of children infected with anemia in samawa city

Abstract EN

Anemia spreads a widely in many countries in the world particularly the poor and developing countries.

Iraq is one of these countries and many of children suffer from bad environmental health, and economic conditions.

Samples of blood collected from patients infected with anemia in the hospital of children and delivery in samawah city.

Hematological and biochemical parameters were determined, hematological parameters included packed cell volume, hemoglobin concentration, total white blood cells count while biochemical parameters included glucose, cholesterol, billrubin and urea concentrations were measured.

Results showed High significant increase (P < 0.01) in the number of children infected with iron deficiency anemia in comparison with other types of anemia, so number of children infected with sickle cell anemia and hemolytic anemia.

Also there was high significant decrease (p < 0.01) in hemoglobin concentration and packed cell volume in all types of anemia in comparison with a control group Glucose and bilirubin increased significantly (p < 0.01).

Total white blood count increased significantly (p < 0.01) in patients with thallasemia.

sickle cell anemia and hemolytic anemia compared with patients with iron deficiency anemia and a control group.

Total serum cholesterol high significant decreased (p < 0.01) in all types of anemia compared with a control group.

Results showed there were no significant differences in urea levels in all types of anemia compared with a control group.
