Hematological Indices for Differential Diagnosis of Beta Thalassemia Trait and Iron Deficiency Anemia
Background. The two most frequent types of microcytic anemia are beta thalassemia trait ( β -TT) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA). We retrospectively evaluated the reliability of various indices for differential diagnosis of microcytosis and β -TT in the same patient groups. Methods. A total of 290 carefully selected children aged 1.1-16 years were evaluated. We calculated 12 discrimination ind...

متن کاملEvaluation of Twenty Four Discriminant Indices for Differentiating Beta-Thalassemia Trait from Iron Deficiency Anemia in Egyptians
Background: Many Red Blood Cell (RBC) indices have been developed based on mathematical formulae to discriminate beta-thalassemia trait (βTT) from iron deficiency anemia (IDA). The latter two conditions represent the most common causes of microcytic hypochromic anemia in Egypt. This study aimed To evaluate the diagnostic reliability of 24 published discriminant indices for differentiating βTT f...
متن کاملUsing Data Mining Models for Differential Diagnosis of Iron Deficiency Anemia and β-thalassemia Minor
Introduction: One of the most common types of anemia is Iron deficiency anemia that its main differential diagnosis is β-thalassemia minor. The rapid and accurate screening of β-thalassemia minor has particular importance for pre-marriage medical counseling and the prevention of the birth of neonates with β-thalassemia major and differentiating it from iron deficiency anemia to avoid unnecessar...
