Some laboratory diagnostic and biomarkers can be used to diagnose and follow up on AML cases and their exacerbation. In some cases, AML may be linked with a decrease in vitamin B12 levels (pg/mL). This study investigates the correlation between vitamin B12 deficiency and the exacerbation of diagnostic markers in AML patients. A retrospective study was conducted to collect demographic and clinical outcomes data for patients who have histologically confirmed diagnoses with AML and met s
