Thalassemia and the Heartquake

open access: yesThalassemia Reports, 2014
On May 2012 the city of Ferrara and the surrounding region were hit by several earthquakes. We had the chance to observe the behavior of one thalassemic heart during the shocks, because of a 24-h electrocardiogram recording had been put in place a few hours before the shocks.

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.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Impact of pre‐examination video education in Gd‐EOB‐DTPA‐enhanced liver MRI: A comparative study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 34-41, March 2025.
This study evaluates the effects of pre‐examination video education on patient anxiety, satisfaction and image quality in Gd‐EOB‐DTPA‐enhanced liver MRI. We found that video education significantly reduced anxiety, increased patient satisfaction and improved image quality compared to standard pre‐MRI guidance, highlighting the potential of video ...

Inherited hemoglobin disorders in an Afro-Amazonian community: Saracura

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
The most common hemoglobinopathies, viz, hemoglobins S and C, and α-and β-thalassemias, were investigated through the molecular screening of 116 subjects from the community of Saracura, comprising fugitive African slaves from farms of the ...

Spectrum of hemoglobin variants in the population of northern region of West Bengal: An ethnogenetic proposition

open access: yesJournal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2014
Context: The birth of transfusion-dependent states of hemoglobinopathies including thalassemias is preventable by population screening and genetic counseling.
