15 paź 2024 · In the group with hypothyroidism, increased RDW values were observed in 7 dogs (range: 14.4% to 16.8%), and of these, only 2 dogs had mild non-regenerative, microcytic, normochromic and moderate, normocytic, hyperchromic anemia, respectively.
Significantly higher RDW values were found in dogs with primary immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (P < 0.0001), immune-mediated thrombocytopenia (P < 0.0004), hyperadrenocorticism (P < 0.0001), hypothyroidism (P = 0.0220), hepatic vascular anomaly (P < 0.0001), pneumonia (P < 0.0001), chronic kidney disease (P = 0.0005), multi-centric lymphoma ...
The mean value of RDW (16.44 ± 1.41) is lower than of 17.5% like observed by Yilmaz et al. (2008) but it is within the values considered normal for dogs--14 to 19%--(Dunn, 2008; The Pet Center, 2008).
8 mar 2023 · Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a quantitative laboratory parameter applied for the measurement of anisocytosis and is a reliable and inexpensive method for clinical classification of anemia. An increased RDW reflects a great heterogeneity in the size of red blood cells typical of regenerative and iron-deficiency anemia.
17 paź 2016 · The median RDW in dogs with severe PH was 14.5% (13.6–17.3%) and was significantly higher compared to that of dogs without PH (P < .05) (Table 3 and Fig 1B). The RDW of dogs with mild and moderate PH was not significantly different from that of dogs without PH.
Red cell distribution width (RDW) is a quantitative measurement of anisocytosis. This hematological parameter is an important prognostic biomarker for different cardiovascular disorders in humans but its influence on survival has been poorly investigated in dogs with cardiovascular disease.
Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is a calculated, simple and cheap parameter that reflects the degree of heterogeneity of the volume of RBCs (Red blood cells), known as anisocytosis, con- tained in a sample, and is traditionally used in haematology for the differential diagnosis of anaemias [1].
