Immunity to Pneumococcal Vaccine in Splenectomized β-Thalassemia Patients [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Immunology, 2012
Problem statement: Splenectomy is accompanied by a lifelong risk of overwhelming post splenectomy infection, mainly caused by encapsulated bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae. The mortality rate in those infected patients remains high. Therefore the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine has been recommended.

Protein C and Protein S Levels in β-Thalassemia Major Patients in Erbil, Kurdistan Region

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Biology, 2020
Oxygen is transported in the blood through red blood cells and a protein called hemoglobin. The protein consists of two alpha and two beta chains. The lack of any of these chains is caused by the malfunction of the genes that produce them, and can lead to a genetic disease called thalassemia.

In silico analysis of substitution mutations in the β-globin gene in Turkish population of β-thalassemia

open access: yes, 2023
Beta-thalassemia is a genetic blood disorder represented by anomalies in hemoglobin’s beta chain production. Most hemoglobin defects are a result of mutations of the structural β-globin gene.
