A rare −α27.6 deletion compounded with the hemoglobin constant spring mutation identified in a Chinese couple

open access: yesHematology
Background Thalassemia is a common hemoglobin disorder caused by genetic defects in a single autosomal gene. Based on the deficient globin strand, it can be classified as α-thalassemia or β-thalassemia.

Iron Physiology and Its Impact on Atopic Diseases: An EAACI Taskforce Report

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron is essential for oxygen transport, energy metabolism, and immune regulation. Yet iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient disorder across all age groups, affecting nearly one quarter of the global population. Iron deficiency triggers nutritional immunity, a host defense mechanism that withholds and redistributes iron, contributing

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

Thrombocytosis and the generation of platelet‐derived microparticles in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Thrombocytosis is associated with an increased production of platelet‐derived microparticles from activated platelets, which contribute to vaso‐occlusion in sickle cell disease by perpetuating the cycle of inflammation, procoagulant state and endothelial dysfunction.

Hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide) use in adults with haemoglobin SC disease: A real‐world study in Quebec

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Haemoglobin SC (HbSC) disease is the second most prevalent form of sickle cell disease, but evidence for hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide; HU) to prevent pain episodes was limited until the prospective identification of variables as outcomes for treatment (PIVOT) trial.

Chronic hyperplastic anemia as an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic lesions: a lesson from thalassemia intermedia

open access: yes, 2010
Introduction. Cardiovascular involvement represents a well-known complication and the primary cause of mortality, both in transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia major (β-TM) and in transfusion-independent beta thalassemia intermedia (β-TI ...

A Population-Oriented Genetic Scoring System to Predict Phenotype: A Pathway to Personalized Medicine in Iraqis With β-Thalassemia

open access: yes
To assess the roles of genetic modifiers in Iraqi β-thalassemia patients, and determine whether a genotype-based scoring system could be used to predict phenotype, a total of 224 Iraqi patients with molecularly characterized homozygous or compound ...

Multicentric Asynchronous Endocrine Mucin‐Producing Sweat Gland Carcinoma and Mucinous Carcinoma of the Skin

open access: yesJournal of Cutaneous Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endocrine mucin‐producing sweat gland carcinoma (EMPSGC) is an adnexal neoplasm which typically occurs on periorbital skin and demonstrates overlapping histopathologic features with primary mucinous carcinoma of the skin (MCS). Herein, we report a patient who developed five distinct lesions of EMPSGC and MCS over an eight‐year period, some of ...
