Multidisciplinary approaches to study anaemia with special mention on aplastic anaemia (Review)

Abstract

Anaemia is a common health problem worldwide that disproportionately affects vulnerable groups, such as children and expectant mothers. It has a variety of underlying causes, some of which are genetic. A comprehensive strategy combining physical examination, laboratory testing (for example, a complete blood count), and molecular tools for accurate identification is required for diagnosis. With nearly 400 varieties of anaemia, accurate diagnosis remains a challenging task. Red blood cell abnormalities are largely caused by genetic factors, which means that a thorough understanding requires interpretation at the molecular level. As a result, precision medicine has become a key paradigm, utilising artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, such as deep learning and machine learning, to improve prognostic evaluation, treatment prediction, and diagnostic accuracy. Furthermore, exploring the immunomodulatory role of vitamin D along with biomarker‑based molecular techniques offers promising avenues for insight into anaemia's pathophysiology. The intricacy of aplastic anaemia makes it particularly noteworthy as a topic deserving of concentrated molecular research. Given the complexity of anaemia, an integrated strategy integrating clinical, laboratory, molecular, and AI techniques shows a great deal of promise. Such an approach holds promise for enhancing global anaemia management options in addition to advancing our understanding of the illness.
