The 46 pages that link to Anemia, each with the reason it gives.

• HemoglobinRelated: Low hemoglobin is a common basis for diagnosing and classifying anemia.

• IronNarrower topic: Iron deficiency is one cause among several, so anemia is the broader clinical outcome.

• Complete blood countRelated: Low hemoglobin or hematocrit can prompt evaluation for anemia.

• HypoxiaRelated: Oxygen delivery may fall despite normal oxygen levels in the blood.

• Iron deficiency anemiaNarrower topic: Iron deficiency anemia is one cause within this broader set of disorders.

• HypoxemiaCompared with: Anemia can impair oxygen delivery despite normal arterial oxygen tension and saturation.

• MalnutritionRelated: Iron and other nutrient deficiencies can contribute to anemia.

• Red blood cellCompared with: Anemia reduces the blood’s capacity to deliver oxygen to tissues.

• Inflammatory bowel diseaseRelated: Blood loss, inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies can cause anemia in IBD.

• Aplastic anemiaRelated: Red-cell deficiency causes fatigue, pallor, and shortness of breath.

• ErythropoietinNarrower topic: Erythropoietin deficiency is one cause among many, so anemia does not always respond to it.

• SchistosomiasisRelated: Chronic infection can contribute to anemia through blood loss, inflammation, and nutritional effects.

• Hemolytic anemiaNarrower topic: Hemolytic anemia is one cause of the broader condition.

• Oxygen therapyCompared with: Normal oxygen saturation can coexist with poor oxygen-carrying capacity from anemia.

• Acute myeloid leukemiaRelated: AML can crowd out normal red-cell production, causing fatigue and breathlessness.

• EctoparasiteRelated: Heavy blood-feeding infestations can cause anemia, especially in small or vulnerable hosts.

• ScurvyRelated: Bleeding, poor iron absorption, and impaired nutrition can contribute to anemia in scurvy.

• ErythropoiesisCompared with: Impaired or inadequate erythropoiesis is a major cause of anemia.

• Peripheral blood smearRelated: Red-cell size, color, and shape help characterize its underlying pattern.

• Acute lymphoblastic leukemiaRelated: Marrow crowding by lymphoblasts can reduce red-cell production and cause anemia.

• HemorrhageCompared with: Blood loss can cause anemia, but anemia also arises without active hemorrhage.

• MyelosuppressionBroader topic: Suppressed red-cell production can cause anemia, fatigue, and reduced oxygen delivery.

• HemodynamicsRelated: Reduced blood viscosity and oxygen content can prompt compensatory changes in flow and cardiac output.

• TaeniasisRelated: Taeniasis is usually not a major cause, but prolonged symptoms or nutritional effects can prompt evaluation for anemia.

• CyanosisCompared with: Severe anemia can mask cyanosis because too little hemoglobin is present to create the visible color.

• Erythrocyte sedimentation rateRelated: Anemia can raise ESR through altered cell concentration, even when it is not caused by inflammation.

• Autoimmune hemolytic anemiaNarrower topic: Premature red-cell loss lowers hemoglobin when marrow replacement cannot keep pace.

• Sinus tachycardiaRelated: The heart may beat faster to help meet tissue oxygen needs.

• TachycardiaRelated: The heart may beat faster to compensate for reduced oxygen delivery.

• ZidovudineRelated: Bone-marrow suppression from zidovudine can cause clinically significant anemia.

• HematologyBroader topic: It is among the most common clinical problems evaluated in hematology.

• Epidermolysis bullosaRelated: Chronic wounds and inflammation can contribute to anemia in severe EB.

• Blood cellRelated: It is a common consequence of too few red cells or insufficient hemoglobin.

• Internal bleedingRelated: Ongoing or substantial internal bleeding can lower hemoglobin and cause anemia.

• Microcytic anemiaNarrower topic: Microcytic anemia is classified within anemia by red-cell size.

• AnoxemiaCompared with: Anemia lowers blood oxygen-carrying capacity without necessarily lowering arterial oxygen pressure.

• AstheniaRelated: Reduced oxygen delivery can contribute to weakness and low exercise tolerance.

• Blood as foodRelated: Blood foods are sometimes associated with anemia prevention, though diet alone does not treat every cause.

• Dog fleaRelated: Heavy flea burdens can cause blood loss, especially in young or small animals.

• HelminthiasisRelated: Hookworms and blood-feeding flukes can contribute to anemia through blood loss.

• NandroloneRelated: Nandrolone has been used medically in some countries to treat certain forms of anemia.

• Erythroid cellsRelated: Insufficient erythroid production is one major route to anemia.

• Hemic and Lymphatic DiseasesBroader topic: It is a common manifestation of blood loss, impaired production, or accelerated red-cell destruction.

• HijamaRelated: Repeated blood removal can worsen anemia or cause it in vulnerable people.

• LightheadednessRelated: It can contribute to persistent fatigue and lightheadedness, but symptoms alone cannot establish it.

• Shortness of breathBroader topic: Reduced oxygen delivery may cause breathlessness despite normal lung oxygen measurements.
