GSTM1 and anemia: In conclusion, based on results from a clinical setting, the present study highlights the potential suitability of the StatStrip Xpress 2 Hb/Hct meter for patients with any hematological conditions requiring the monitoring of Hct and Hb levels (e.g., the patients with PV, conditions in which patients experience anemia, conditions in which patients experience polycythemia) for incorporation into their routine care as a self-testing device for use at home.
