.BETA.+-Thalassemia with Hemochromatosis.

Internal 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).

A Novel Plasma Heme Assay Reveals Disease Severity in Beta‐Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anemia results from imbalanced hemoglobin or red blood cell production and clearance. Hemolytic anemia, caused by premature red blood cell removal, can be intravascular (in blood) or extravascular (erythrophagocytosis). Hemolysis is common in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and Beta‐Thalassemia anemia (β‐thalassemia), the most prevalent inherited ...

Comparative efficacy of deferiprone, deferoxamine and combination of deferiprone and deferoxamine on serum ferritin value in Beta-Thalassemia patients [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Iron overload is a predictable and life-threatening complication in patients with thalassemia. Effective and convenient iron chelation remains one of the main targets of clinical management of thalassemia major.

Genetic prediction of blood cell reactivity and its potential causal influence on bone continuity and density disorders

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We applied Mendelian randomization to explore causal links between blood cell traits and skeletal disorders. Using genetic instruments from large‐scale summary statistics, we assessed effects on bone continuity, density, and structural integrity. Sensitivity and reverse analyses confirmed robust associations, highlighting potential shared biological ...

Rare double heterozygosity for poly A(A>G) and CD17(A>T) of beta thalassemia intermedia in a Chinese family

Hematology Reports, 2019
Beta thalassemia is a hereditary disorder resulted from mutations in the β globin gene leading to alpha/beta imbalance, ineffective erythropoiesis, and chronic anemia.

Takayasu's arteritis presenting with temporary loss of vision in a 23-year-old woman with beta thalassemia trait: a case report [PDF]

, 2011
Introduction The simultaneous presence of Takayasu's arteritis and beta thalassemia trait is a rare combination. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report on Takayasu's arteritis and beta thalassemia presenting together.

Nano‐networks via reaction‐induced self‐assembly coordinate spatiotemporal multi‐drug delivery for acute kidney injury therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...

Prevalence of Co-Inheritance of Alpha-Thalassemia with Beta-Thalassemia and Beta-Hemoglobinopathy in Ahvaz City

Journal of Ardabil University of Medical Sciences, 2013
Background: Co-inheritance of hemoglobin gene defects is a rare important status that can lead to double heterozygote or homozygote with significant clinical manifestations. Such conditions can be observed in co-inheritance of alpha-thalassemia with beta-

Serum ferritin and hematological indices in thalassemia minor and nontransfusion dependent hemoghlobinopathy

Iraqi Journal of Hematology, 2021
BACKGROUND: Iron deficiency is not common in thalassemia minor and nontransfusion dependent hemoglobinophaties. The majority of these patients have normal-to-high serum ferritin. OBJECTIVES: The aims of the study were to evaluate serum ferritin levels in
