Enhancing thalassemia carrier detection: Advancing genetic screening strategies in prenatal care
The carrier rates of alpha- and beta-thalassemia are notably high in certain regions. Current screening methods using traditional mean corpuscular volume (MCV) measurements can prevent the birth of severe cases of thalassemia, but often miss carriers of ...

The shortcut strategy for beta thalassemia prevention
We propose antenatal blood tests using high-resolution DNA melting (HRM) analysis for beta thalassemia mutation detection after hemoglobin A2 estimation as a modified strategy for the identification of beta thalassemia at-risk couples.

Sickle cell anaemia with and without crises: An observational study of pregnancy outcomes
Summary We assessed the pregnancy outcomes of patients with sickle cell crises. We carried out a retrospective study of 2 698 556 pregnancies in Quebec, Canada between 1989 and 2022. The primary exposure was sickle cell anaemia with crisis during or outside of pregnancy. Outcomes included severe maternal morbidity and other pregnancy complications.

The use of FG‐4592 in the process of myeloablation can promote haematopoietic cell apoptosis for more effective myeloablation, maintain the number of RBC and may create a pluripotent microenvironment suitable for donor cells, so as to enable more effective haematopoietic reconstruction of donor cells in vivo.
