    Extractions: General Information Pernicious anemia is characterized by incomplete development of red blood cells (RBCs) due to vitamin B12 deficiency. This lack in vitamin B12 can occur through dietary malnutrition, an autoimmune disorder, genetic disease, or ileal resection (surgical removal of distal portion of small intestine). Intrinsic factor is a chemical secreted by the parietal cells of the stomach. This factor is responsible for binding vitamin B12 and aiding absorption in the small intestine. Antibodies that destroy the parietal cells, or defective parietal cells, can lead to vitamin B12 deficiency. The parietal cells are also responsible for secreting the hydrochloric acid (HCl) of the stomach that aids in disinfection and digestion. In pernicious anemia, there may also be digestive problems associated with poor acid secretion.

    Extractions: Injury Disease Nutrition Poison ... Prevention Pernicious anemia is caused by a lack of intrinsic factor, a substance needed to absorb vitamin B12 from the gastrointestinal tract. Vitamin B12, in turn, is necessary for the formation of red blood cells. Anemia is a condition where red blood cells are not providing adequate oxygen to body tissues. There are many types and causes of anemia. (See the general article - anemia Pernicious anemia is a type of megaloblastic anemia Macrocytic achylic anemia; Congenital pernicious anemia; Juvenile pernicious anemia; Vitamin B12 deficiency (malabsorption) Intrinsic factor is a protein the body uses to absorb vitamin B12. When gastric secretions do not have enough intrinsic factor, vitamin B12 is not adequately absorbed, resulting in pernicious anemia and other problems related to low levels of vitamin B12. Because vitamin B12 is needed by nerve cells and blood cells for them to function properly, deficiency can cause a wide variety of symptoms, including fatigue, shortness of breath, tingling sensations, difficulty walking, and diarrhea. Other causes of low levels of intrinsic factor (and thus of pernicious anemia) include atrophic gastric mucosa, autoimmunity against gastric parietal cells, and autoimmunity against intrinsic factor.

Ask the Experts about Fatigue and Anemia Mar 28, 2002 Dear Dr. Bob, I first need to send you a BIG thank you from the bottom of my heart! I have been struggling with the ups and downs of testing and fearing the worst for 10 months. I have been following the postings of The Body for months, but until recently I had never read your site. I was actually laughing instead of crying while I was reading your responses! I will spare you all the details, but this American female was "wooed" by an Italian stallion while on vacation and had a lapse in judgement while under the influence of alcohol. I am not sure of all the details, but I believe there was a definite/significant risk and from my subsequent contacts with this "stallion", he likes his "mares". Multiple, multiple tests have come back negative and I have not had any other exposures, so New York Jack is probably cursing another worried well (SORRY). Through some counseling I am starting to accept the test results, though I have not been able to flip that woohoo switch and move on!

    Extractions: Hematology and Blood Disorders Megaloblastic anemia, also called pernicious anemia, is a type of anemia characterized by very large red blood cells. In addition to the cells being large, the inner contents of each cell are not completely developed. This malformation causes the bone marrow to produce fewer cells, and sometimes the cells die earlier than the 120-day life expectancy. Instead of being round or disc-shaped, the red blood cells can be oval. There are many causes of megaloblastic anemia, but the most common source in children occurs from a vitamin deficiency of folic acid. Other sources of megaloblastic anemia include the following: digestive diseases

    Extractions: Anemia Chlorosis Progressive Pernicious Anemia Progressive Pernicious Anemia. Synonyms Definition Etiology Pregnancy and parturition may be associated with anemia. The course of pregnancy may be attended with so much nausea rind vomiting that the function of blood-making is seriously impaired, and anemia of a permanent character develops. Generally, however, the anemia develops post partum. Atrophy of the stomach has been regarded as a cause of anemia, the two being often associated, though Grawitz regards the atrophy the result, rather than the cause. In rare cases, parasites may be the producing cause, by impairing nutrition and establishing toxins that result in cell destruction; the anchylostoma duodenalis and the bothriocephalus being the ones most frequently responsible for the disease. Exhausting diseases and profuse hemorrhages may also figure as contributing causes, but after we exclude these we still find cases of pernicious anemia that can not as yet be accounted for. Quincke and Peters think that the increased hemolysis is due to the large amount of iron found in the liver at this time. Hunter called attention to the urine of anemic patients. He found it darker in color and containing pathological urobilin. His findings naturally strengthen the views of the last-named writers. Pathology Fatty degeneration of the various viscera, and even the intima of the smaller vessels, is perhaps the most constant lesion, if we except the blood changes.

    Extractions: by Ron Kennedy, M.D., Santa Rosa, California Pernicious anemia (PA) is an autoimmune disease. Autoimmune disorders are caused when the body's immune system, which is meant to defend the body against bacteria, viruses, and any other foreign product, malfunctions and produces antibodies against healthy tissue, cells and organs. PA occurs as a result of autoimmune gastritis which results in the destruction of lining of the stomach. The autoimmune process is limited to the body of the stomach and causes disappearance of some of the stomach tissue. The gastric atrophy (disappearance of tissue) is caused by chronic inflammation from the autoimmune attack on the lining of the stomach and precedes the development of PA by many years. PA has been observed to cluster in families. The common symptoms of PA are: weakness, especially in arms and legs, sore tongue, nausea, loss of appetite, weight loss, bleeding gums, numbness and tingling in hands and feet, difficulty with balance, pale lips,, tongue and gums, yellow sclera (eyes) and skin, shortness of breath, depression, confusion and dementia, headache, and poor memory.

Articles by Beck, S Journal of the American Osteopathic Association, Vol 90, Issue 6, 535-535 DJ Kikoler and S Beck The formation of a benign gastric ulcer in an achlorhydric milieu is a rare phenomenon. Since 1971, only 12 cases have been reported. Early cases were treated surgically for fear of gastric cancer, but since that time such ulcers have been successfully treated medically. The authors describe the case of a patient who had no concomitant ulcerogenic factors and whose ulcer occurred in the gastric cardia at the esophagogastric junction. We believe this is the first case report of a patient with pernicious anemia meeting these conditions.

    Extractions: General Concept The maintenance of normal red cell mass and the synthesis of hemoglobin are normally adjusted to take care of the physiological loss of the blood elements. Anemia results when there is excessive loss or diminished replacement of red cells. Most anemia's are deficiency diseases resulting from inadequate tissue concentrations of iron, vitamin B12, or folic acid. Correction of the deficiency is highly successful provided an accurate diagnosis is made. Erythropoietin is a useful stimulator of bone marrow in certain diseases. Iron Iron is contained in the body in various forms, principally as hemoglobin. Normal blood contains about 15 g of hemoglobin/100 ml, and each gram of hemoglobin contains 3.4 mg of iron. It may be calculated then that the total normal blood volume contains about 2.6 g of iron. In addition to hemoglobin, iron is contained in ferritin, the storage form for iron in the tissues, and in the serum attached to the carrier substance, the globulin transferrin. Minute quantities are also present in the cytochrome enzymes and myoglobin of muscle. Quantitatively, hemoglobin and ferritin contain the bulk of the iron in the body, amounting to a total of about 4 to 5 g. Under normal circumstances red cells are broken down at a steady rate, their lifespan being on the order of 120 days. Most of the iron released from the breakdown of hemoglobin is reutilized. As a consequence, the daily iron requirement in a normal adult is quite low, about 1 mg. Growth, menstruation, and pregnancy increase the iron requirement.

    Extractions: It is possible that the main title of the report Anemia, Pernicious is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. Pernicious Anemia is a rare blood disorder characterized by the inability of the body to properly utilize vitamin B12 (a cobalamin), which is essential for the development of red blood cells. The symptoms of Pernicious Anemia may include weakness, fatigue, an upset stomach, an abnormally rapid heartbeat (tachycardia), and/or chest pains. Recurring episodes of anemia (megaloblastic) and an abnormal yellow coloration of the skin (jaundice) are also common. Pernicious Anemia is thought to be an autoimmune disorder, and certain people may have a genetic predisposition to this disorder. The three recognized forms of Pernicious Anemia include: Congenital Pernicious Anemia, Juvenile Pernicious Anemia, and Adult Onset Pernicious Anemia. The subdivisions are based on the age at onset and the precise nature of the defect causing impaired B12 utilization (e.g., absence of intrinsic factor).
