Genetic Analysis of β-Thalassemia Major and β-Thalassemia Intermedia in Brazil [PDF]

Hemoglobin, 1998
The development of methodologies to identify the molecular lesions responsible for different types of beta-thalassemia has made it possible to correlate these data with clinical and hematological severity. We examined DNA from 35 patients with beta-thalassemia, residents of the State of São Paulo, Brazil, for some types of genetic modifying factors ...

Beta-thalassemia [PDF]

Genetics in Medicine, 2010
Beta-thalassemias are a group of hereditary blood disorders characterized by anomalies in the synthesis of the beta chains of hemoglobin resulting in variable phenotypes ranging from severe anemia to clinically asymptomatic individuals.

Cardiopulmonary Assessment in Beta-Thalassemia Major

Chest, 1990
Thalassemia patients succumb at a young age to congestive heart failure. Hitherto, attention has been focused on left ventricular function. This report emphasizes right ventricular dysfunction and abnormal pulmonary function. We performed cardiopulmonary evaluation, including echo-Doppler, spirometry, CO diffusion (DCO), and blood gas analyses in 35 ...

Thromboembolic Complications in Beta Thalassemia major

Acta Haematologica, 2009
Thromboembolic complications in β-thalassemia major have seldom been reported and their association with risk factors such as left ventricular failure and postsplenectomy thrombocytosis has remained speculative. In this report we describe 4 patients with unusual thromboembolic manifestations: recurrent arterial occlusion, recurrent pulmonary ...

Immunological Evaluation of Patients with Beta-Thalassemia major

Acta Haematologica, 2001
Abnormalities in the immune system and zinc homeostasis in patients with β-thalassemia major (TM) have been reported. Since zinc ion is essential for the efficiency of the immune system and is required to induce biological activity to thymulin (Zn-FTS), a biochemically defined thymic hormone, we investigated the plasma levels of zinc and both active ...

Hypoparathyroidism in Beta-Thalassemia major

Acta Haematologica, 2009
In the last 18 years, we have observed 24 cases of hypoparathyroidism (HPT) in β-thalassemia major. At present, 4.5% of patients followed regularly in our department have this complication. HPT is thought to be mainly the consequence of iron deposition in the parathyroid glands. The age of our patients when HPT was diagnosed ranged from 11 to 24 years (
