Red blood cell membrane proteome as a reporter of disease severity, transfusion impact and genetic background in transfusion‐dependent β‐thalassaemia

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Omics technologies have transformed research in haemoglobinopathies, yet the proteome of RBCs remains largely unexplored in transfusion‐dependent thalassaemia (TDT). In this proteomic analysis, Red blood cell (RBC) membranes from 48 adults with TDT were compared with healthy controls.

In Patients with Minor Beta-Thalassemia, Cognitive Performance Is Related to Length of Education, But not to Minor Beta-Thalassemia or Hemoglobin Levels

Iranian Journal of Psychiatry, 2018
Objective: Thalassemia is one of the most frequent monogenic disorders, leading to impairment in the maturation and survival of red blood cells. The question examined here is whether, and if so, to what extent, people with beta-thalassemia might also be ...

A genetic risk score based on BCL11A and HBS1L‐MYB variants predicts clinical severity in Brazilian sickle cell anaemia patients

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Individuals with sickle cell anaemia (SCA) exhibit significant clinical heterogeneity influenced by several factors, especially fetal haemoglobin (HbF) levels. Variations in adult HbF levels are partly explained by the co‐inheritance of genetic variants that regulate globin expression.

Longitudinal Analysis of Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Cognitive Outcomes in Children Living With Sickle Cell Anaemia

Clinical Otolaryngology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) and cognitive challenges are commonly observed in children living with sickle cell anaemia (SCA). This study investigated the longitudinal change in polysomnographic outcomes and the association with cognitive functions in children living with SCA.
