Core Tip |
Red cell distribution width is a marker of anisocytosis and often used to evaluate the possible causes of the anemia. Elevated red cell distribution width levels are also reported to be associated with acute and chronic inflammatory responses. In nonalcoholic steatohepatitis hepatic steatosis is associated with hepatic inflammation. As red cell distribution width is not a specific marker, for assuming it as an indicating marker of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and fibrotic stage, other confounding factors such as levels of inflammatory markers might be evaluated. |
