Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis in β-thalassemia intermedia; a case report [PDF]
Introduction: β-thalassemia intermedia reduces the body’s ability to produce adult hemoglobin and causes anemia. In contrast to β-thalassemia major, β-thalassemia intermedia patients do not require lifelong transfusion and are often independent of blood ...

Changes in coagulation status in patients with β-thalassemia in Iraq: A case-control study
Background: The pathogenesis β-thalassemia is characterized by anemia resulting from reduced β-globin synthesis with low hemoglobin A (HbA) production and higher production of hemoglobin A2 (HbA2) and fetal hemoglobin (HbF).

Compound Heterozygous Sickle Cell-β-Thalassemia: A Case Report from Upper Assam, India [PDF]
Sickle cell-β-thalassemia [Hb S/β- thalassemia] is a rare type of hemoglobinopathy. The clinical characteristics of Hb S/β- thalassemia are highly variable from a completely asymptomatic state to a severe disorder like homozygous sickle cell disease.

Assessment of Molecular Changes of Transfusion Dependent Beta Thalassemia Children in El Minia Governorate and Their Correlations with Patients Clinical Outcomes [PDF]
Beta Thalassemia represents a major public health problem in Egypt. The carrier rate varies between 5.5% to > 9%. It is estimated that there are 1000/1.5 million per year live births born with beta thalassemia.(1) β thalassemia occurs when there is a ...

Platelet-Derived Microparticle Count in β-Thalassemia Patients with Direct Labeling Monoclonal Antibody CD62P and CD41 [PDF]
Thromboembolic events are potentially life-threatening clinical complications found in β-thalassemia patients. The pathogenesis of the hypercoagulable state in β-thalassemia patients results from the degradation of excess α-globin chains in red blood cells, leading to intracellular labile iron accumulation, oxidative stress, and more rigid, deformed,

Investigating the level of Hba1c and insulin level in β-thalassemia patients
Background: β-thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by reduced or no synthesis of β globin chain, resulting in chronic anemia, so blood transfusion is required as curative therapy. Repeated blood transfusions lead to iron overload that can lead to multiple organ damage, including pancreatic organs.Objective: This study aimed to ...
