Overview
Common risk factors in the development of sideroblastic anemia are male gender (X-linked SA), family history of hreditary SA, chronic alcohol abuse. Less common risk factors in the development of sideroblastic anemia are drugs, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, chloramphenicol, cycloserine, and azathioprine, copper deficiency and pyridoxine deficiency. Hypothermia causes sideroblastic anemia by affecting mitochondrial functions.
