Population dynamics of red blood cells
Jan 2011
Higgins and Mahadevan analyzed data on red cells and derived an equation model of red-cell maturation and clearance. They observed that the threshold for clearance is lowered with iron-deficiency anemia and thalassemia trait and showed how their model can differentiate these two disorders.
