Elevated Hemoglobin A2: A Molecular Revisited, and Implications to β‐Thalassemia Screening
In Thailand, the Hb A2 cut‐off value for β‐thalassemia carrier has been changed from 4.0% to 3.6% since 2015. We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change. The molecular basis of β‐thalassemia was updated, and a change in the Hb A2 cut‐off can alter this spectrum.

Cerebral Blood Transit in Sickle Cell Anemia
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients upregulate cerebral blood flow to compensate for decreased arterial oxygen content. Such hyperemic conditions can manifest as venous hyperintense signal on arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI, which may reflect faster capillary blood transit, altered oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), and infarct risk ...

Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.

A Child Lost to Follow Up Carrying Beta Thalassemia Major: A Case Report
Thalassemia is inherited autosomal recessive disorders characterized by reduced rate of hemoglobin synthesis due to a defect in alpha or beta globin chain synthesis. Maldives has a beta thalassemia prevalence rate of 16–18%.

ABSTRACT Aim In this article, we present two cases of severe fetal hemolytic anemia based on a beta‐thalassaemia trait inherited from a single parent. Results These cases, presented at 20 and 28 weeks' gestation, necessitated intra‐uterine blood transfusions.

Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out
