Higher hemoglobin / increased risk of mortality

[Ironjustic]

The markers used to assess erythrocytosis / increased red
blood cells in this study are BELOW the 'upper threshold'
that the medical profession uses to assess .. 'increased
hemoglobin'. This means that doctors aren't even LOOKING
at the increased hemoglobin .. WHEN .. adverse effects
seem to present.

Men they BEGIN to look at eighteen and women at sixteen.

'Standard of care' ..

"This result suggests that a hemoglobin concentration at the
upper range of normal (> 15.6 g/dL for men and > 14.4 /dL for
women) may confer an increased risk of mortality," the authors
note. They suggest that higher hemoglobin concentrations may
lead to increased blood viscosity, blood pressure, and
dialysis-access thrombolysis.
