What is another word for Refractory Anaemia?
Pronunciation: [ɹɪfɹˈaktəɹˌi ɐnˈiːmi͡ə] (IPA) 
Refractory anaemia is a medical condition characterized by the inability of the bone marrow to produce enough healthy red blood cells. Some synonyms for refractory anaemia include aplastic anaemia, megaloblastic anaemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Aplastic anaemia occurs when the bone marrow fails to produce enough red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, leading to severe symptoms including fatigue, infections, and bleeding. Megaloblastic anaemia is a type of anaemia caused by deficiencies in vitamin B12 or folate, leading to large, immature red blood cells. Myelodysplastic syndrome is characterized by abnormal blood cell production in the bone marrow, while chronic lymphocytic leukaemia is a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, causing abnormal white blood cell production.
