Depression in mothers of children with thalassemia or blood malignancies: a study from Iran [PDF]

open access: yes
Background Several studies have found that parents of children with chronic diseases or disabilities have higher depression scores than control parents. Mothers usually take on the considerable part of the extra care and support that these children need

Performance Evaluation of a Premier Resolution HPLC System for Detecting Hemoglobin Constant Spring, Hemoglobin Paksé, and Coexisting α‐ and β‐Thalassemia Mutations

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study compared Premier Resolution HPLC with Capillary Electrophoresis for detecting HbCS/Hb Paksé variants and coexisting thalassemia mutations. Premier Resolution HPLC demonstrated superior performance with 50% fewer false negative cases (11 vs. 22) compared to Capillary Electrophoresis, particularly in heterozygous cases.

Complications of patients with thalassemia major and intermedia in a selected Iranian population

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2022
Background: Due to anemia in thalassemia major (TM) and thalassemia intermedia (TI) patients, bone changes occur, especially in the broad bones like jaw and skull, which are the main sites of hematopoiesis.

Beta‐Thalassemia in Spain: Results From the National Thalassemia Registry and Molecular Analysis of Patients With Transfusion‐Dependent Thalassemia

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This nationwide registry‐based study describes the clinical and molecular characteristics of 78 patients with transfusion‐dependent beta‐thalassemia in Spain. Comprehensive genetic analysis revealed marked molecular heterogeneity, with 24 HBB mutations identified and a predominance of β0 genotypes, alongside generally effective transfusion and iron ...

Endocrinopathies in Turkish Children with Thalassemia Major

open access: yes, 2017
Aim: Endocrinopathies are common in patients with thalassemia major (TM) and affect their life quality. Our aim was to identify the frequency of growth retardation and endocrine complications in these patients.

Elevated Hemoglobin A2: A Molecular Revisited, and Implications to β‐Thalassemia Screening

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
In Thailand, the Hb A2 cut‐off value for β‐thalassemia carrier has been changed from 4.0% to 3.6% since 2015. We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change. The molecular basis of β‐thalassemia was updated, and a change in the Hb A2 cut‐off can alter this spectrum.

Hypertriglyceridemia in a Baby with Thalassemia Major

open access: yes, 2020
Thalassemia is the most common inherited hemoglobin disorder around the world. It is usually associated with normal serum lipid profile. However, there are a few reports in literature that hypertriglyceridemia has an association with beta-thalassemia ...

Cerebral Blood Transit in Sickle Cell Anemia

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients upregulate cerebral blood flow to compensate for decreased arterial oxygen content. Such hyperemic conditions can manifest as venous hyperintense signal on arterial spin labeling (ASL) MRI, which may reflect faster capillary blood transit, altered oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), and infarct risk ...

Cardiac Complications in Thalassemia Major [PDF]

open access: yesHemoglobin, 2009
Thalassemia major is characterized by chronic ineffective erythropoiesis and anemia as its primary problems. These, in turn, produce physiologic adaptations in the cardiovascular system as well as pathologic/iatrogenic processes such as iron overload, splenectomy, nutritional deficiencies, chronic oxidative stress, and lung disease.

Watershed Infarct in Beta-Thalassemia Major Patient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background. The mechanism of stroke in beta-thalassemia was reported previously as cardioembolic and hypercoagulable state. However, there is no report of watershed infarct in beta-thalassemia anemia. Method.
