Children ≤10y presented a lower prevalence (p 65y, 60.2%). II. The overall subsample presented 24.7% low B-12, 8.1% low folate, 22.2% anemia and 3.7% macrocytosis, 1.3% macrocytic anemia. [b12-institute.nl]

Howell-Jolly bodies (residual fragments of the nucleus) are usually present. If iron deficiency or impaired iron utilization is present simultaneously, macrocytosis may not develop. [msdmanuals.com]

Nine cases (36%) showed macrocytic anemia without any evident etiologies during therapy. The cumulative appearance rate of anemia was 19% at 12 weeks and 51% at 18 weeks. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The common theme of etiologies that give rise to macrocytic anemias are their capacity to interfere with DNA Synthesis. This results in ineffective erythropoiesis within the bone marrow and over time, anemia. [pathwaymedicine.org]

Megaloblastic anemia is characterized by macro-ovalocytes, in contrast to the round macrocytes usually found in macrocytosis of nonmegaloblastic etiology [1]. [path.upmc.edu]
