Observational StudyThe Postinjury Inflammatory State and the Bone Marrow Response to Anemia.
The pathophysiology of persistent injury-associated anemia is incompletely understood, and human data are sparse. ⋯ Severe blunt trauma was associated with neuroendocrine activation, erythropoietin dysfunction, iron dysregulation, erythroid progenitor growth suppression, and persistent injury-associated anemia. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT 02577731).
