Abstract

The quantitative proportion of anisocytosis that demonstrates the fluctuation in size of the flowing erythrocytes is referred to as the red blood cell distribution width (RDW).The majority of the time, a higher RDW is indicative of increased red platelet annihilation, such as in hemolytic nephritis, as well as nutritional deficiencies like low iron, vitamin B12, and folate levels. Recently, a few tests revealed significant areas of strength for a connection between a higher RDW and the bad guess in various vascular diseases like the heart, brain, and kidney. The fundamental components of the beneficial prognostic marker of RDW in those diseases will be omitted from this examination.
