Molecular and Hematological Characterization of α-Thalassemia in Denizli Province
Aim: Alpha thalassemia, a common monogenic disorder, occurs with defective synthesis of the α-globin chain and has a very wide clinical spectrum depending on the disorders in the globin genes.

Multitest Screening in Hematology [PDF]
The concept of multitest screening for hematological disorders is not necessarily a new one. Implementation of such ideas has recently become possible, for the automated electronic instruments performing sequential multiple analyses within very short ...

ABSTRACT Hemoglobinopathies are prevalent globally; diagnosis is complex in high genetic admixture populations like Brazil. We report, in two pediatric siblings, the first documented cases in Brazil of heterozygosity for hemoglobin (Hb) O‐Arab with coinheritance of α‐thalassemia (αα/−α4.2; −α3.7/−α4.2), resulting in microcytic and hypochromic anemia ...

A rare case of alpha-thalassaemia intermedia in a Malay patient double heterozygous for α+ –thalassaemia and a mutation in α1 globin gene CD59 (GGC → GAC) [PDF]
A rare case of thalassaemia-intermedia involving a non-deletion alpha thalassemia point mutation in the α1-globin gene CD59 (GGC → GAC) and a deletion α+ (-α3.7) thalassaemia in which use of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) C-gram Hb subtype

ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic inflammatory state, characterized by increased plasma values of inflammatory and angiogenic proteins. Although red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is known to have immunomodulatory effects in other conditions, its potential effects on the inflammatory state in SCD remain largely unknown.

Genetics and Genomics in Sickle Cell Disease in Africa
ABSTRACT Advanced genomic technologies are revolutionizing our ability to understand complex diseases. Large‐scale population studies are needed to realize the potential of using individual genetic information to personalize treatments for better patient outcomes for chronic non‐communicable diseases, such as sickle cell disease (SCD).

Exploring Affordable Curative Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease in Africa: A Comprehensive Overview
ABSTRACT The practical aspects of developing curative treatments for sickle cell disease (SCD) in Africa, such as gene therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, involve strengthening healthcare infrastructure, training healthcare professionals, establishing regional treatment centers, and creating national SCD programs.
