Current status of beta‐thalassemia and its treatment strategies

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Thalassemia is an inherited hematological disorder categorized by a decrease or absence of one or more of the globin chains synthesis. Beta‐thalassemia is caused by one or more mutations in the beta‐globin gene.

Evaluation of Srivastava index to distinguishing Beta-Thalassemia Trait from Iron Deficiency

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Medical & Health Sciences, 2022
Objective: To assist in the differential diagnosis of beta thalassemia trait and iron deficiency anaemia, many alternative red blood cell index-based formulae were examined.

Alpha‐globin gene triplication and its effect in beta‐thalassemia carrier, sickle cell trait, and healthy individual

open access: yeseJHaem, 2021
The genotype and phenotype correlation between coinheritance of heterozygous beta‐thalassemia with the alpha‐globin triplication is unclear. In this study we have investigated and reviewed alpha triplication frequency in beta‐thalassemia carriers, sickle

Thalassemia (Beta-Thalassemia)

open access: yesInternational Journal For Multidisciplinary Research, 2023
Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by less oxygen carrying protein (Haemoglobin) and fever red blood cells in the body than normal. There are mainly two types of thalassemia i.e. Alpha and Beta thalassemia about 1-5% of the global population 80-90 million people are the carrier of ß thalassemia which is major concern.

Determination of mutations in iron regulating genes of beta thalassemia major patients of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2020
Background Hepcidin and hemochromatosis (HFE) are iron regulatory proteins that are encoded by HAMP and HFE genes. Mutation in either HAMP gene or HFE gene causes Hepcidin protein deficiency that can lead to iron overload in beta thalassemia patients ...

Varied clinical presentation of compound heterozygous thalassemia with delta beta or hereditary persistence of foetal hemoglobin

open access: yesPediatric Hematology Oncology Journal, 2023
Introduction: Delta-beta thalassemia and hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) results from a deletion in both the delta and beta genes on chromosome 11.

The impact of iron deficiency on the diagnostic level of HbA2 in beta- thalassemia trait from the Sulaimani hemoglobinopathies screening program.

open access: yesAdvanced Medical Journal, 2022
Background and objectives: The identification of carriers of beta- thalassemia depends on the detection of a high level of hemoglobin A2. The hemoglobin A2 level is influenced by some elements including iron.

TyG index and insulin resistance in beta-thalassemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Insulin resistance (IR) underlies some glucose metabolism abnormalities in thalassemia major. Recently, triglyceride glucose index (TyG) has been proposed for evaluating insulin resistance as a simple, low cost, and accessible tool.

Rare Co-occurrence of Beta-Thalassemia and Pseudoxanthoma elasticum: Novel Biomolecular Findings

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
A number of beta-thalassemia patients, independently from the type of beta-thalassemia (β0 or β+) and blood transfusion requirements, may develop, after puberty, dermal, cardiovascular, and ocular complications associated with an ectopic mineralization ...

.BETA.+-Thalassemia with Hemochromatosis.

open access: yesInternal Medicine, 1992
A 64-year-old man was admitted due to ascites. Laboratory data showed hemoglobin 6.7 g/dl, mean corpuscular volume 82 fl, and ferritin 2,360 ng/ml. Liver biopsy showed hemochromatosis. The diagnosis of beta-thalassemia was suggested by a decreased ratio of beta/alpha-globin synthesis in vitro (0.26).
