Evaluation of Vitamin B12 and Folate Levels in Megaloblastic Anaemia,Diagnosed Morphologically,at the University Teaching Hospital,lusaka,Zambia
Vitamin B12 and folate deficiency is a well-known health problem. Deficiencies of folic acid and vitamin B12 are known to cause megaloblastic anaemia, which is characterised by presence of abnormally large erythrocyte precursor cells, megaloblasts, in the bone marrow and macrocytic red cells in the …
