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. The total annual incidence of symptomatic individuals is estimated at 1 in 100,000 throughout the world and 1 in 10 ...

Genetics in Medicine, 2017 β-Thalassemia is caused by reduced (β+) or absent (β0) synthesis of the β-globin chains of hemoglobin. Three clinical and hematological conditions of increasing severity are recognized: the β-thalassemia carrier state, thalassemia intermedia, and thalassemia major, a severe transfusion-dependent anemia.

Thalassemia (Beta-Thalassemia)
International 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.

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