The low red blood cell distribution width-C can be attributed to two reasons. One is that the red blood cells in the peripheral blood have a relatively small volume, which is generally caused by thalassemia or iron-deficiency anemia. In case of iron-deficiency anemia, timely supplementation of iron elements is required. The volume of red blood cells will gradually increase, and the phenomenon of low red blood cell distribution width will also be improved. The other situation is that the red blood cells in the peripheral blood have a relatively large volume, which is generally caused by anemia with large red blood cells.
What is the reason for the low red blood cell distribution width-C? The normal reference value for the red blood cell volume distribution width is:
