Prevalence of renal tubular dysfunction in beta thalassemia minor in shiraz
Background & objective: β-Thalassemia minor is an asymptomatic hereditary disease. The first study on the relation of renal tubular dysfunction and β-thalassemia minor was performed in 2002 but those studies seem inadequate.The main goal of this study is through evaluation of renal tubular function in 100 patients with thalassemia minor. Materials & Methods: 100 patients with β- thalassemia...
متن کاملPrevalence of Delta Beta Thalassemia Minor in Southern Iran
Background: Hb A2 is elevated in subjects with beta thalassemia minor but small percent of carriers have normal Hb A2 with elevated levels of HbF (2-10%). This type of thalassemia is called delta beta thalassemia, and can be missed in pre-marriage hematologic consults or screening which leads to increased risk of child birth with beta thalassemia major. Materials and Methods: In this prospe...
متن کاملWhole blood viscosity in beta thalassemia minor.
Patients with heterozygous beta-thalassemia minor have a decreased hematocrit (HCT). Since the HCT is a primary determinant of whole blood viscosity, the known reduction in HCT in beta-thalassemia minor should lead to a measurable reduction of whole blood viscosity. The influence of the relatively lower mean corpuscular volume and consequent higher red blood cell count and beta-thalassemia mino...
متن کاملRenal Tubular Dysfunction in -Thalassemia Minor
Background: Persons with -thalassemia minor usually are symptomless. However, we previously reported renal ubular dysfunction in a patient with -thalassemia minor. The aim of this study is to investigate renal function in atients with -thalassemia minor. Methods: Forty-one subjects with -thalassemia minor and 20 sexand ge-matched healthy subjects were enrolled in the study. For analysis, patien...
متن کاملFoxo3 gene expression and oxidative status in beta-thalassemia minor subjects
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress may aggravate symptoms of hemolytic anemias such as beta-thalassemia. FoxO3 activation results in resistance to oxidative stress in fibroblasts and neuronal cell cultures. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this research was to study FoxO3 gene expression and oxidative status in beta-thalassemia minor individuals. METHODS Sixty-three subjects (42 apparently healthy individ...
