In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Erythropoiesis encompasses all the stages and mechanisms involved in the production of red blood cells, or erythrocytes, under the control of a large number of regulatory agents, most often proteins. Among these proteins, erythropoietin and interleukin-3 play a major role. Similarly, proteins involved in iron metabolism (erythroferrone, hepcidin, ferroportin, transferrin, ferritin) influence erythrocyte production more or less directly. The regulation of erythropoiesis is a fine, complex mechanism involving a large number of players, not only through the stimulation of hypoxia pathways to control erythropoietin synthesis, but also through the availability of iron, an essential element for erythropoiesis. Excessive erythrocyte production can lead to polycythemia, the causes of which are varied, primary or secondary, acquired or constitutional. The aim of this work is the descriptive study
