Hemoglobin F level in different hemoglobin variants
BACKGROUND Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels in different hemoglobin variants in Osogbo, Nigeria, were estimated using two principal methods of estimation using existing information for HbF concentration and distribution of various hemoglobin variants in the area, as well as diagnosed cases of thalassemia. Two hundred and sixty samples collected from HbSS, HbSC, HbAA, HbAS, and HbAC subjects were a...
متن کاملAssociation between diabetic retinopathy and hemoglobin level
Background: Anemia may be considered to be an independent risk factor for the development of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with renal failure. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between blood hemoglobin level and retinopathy in diabetic patients with normal renal function tests.Methods: From 2009 to 2011, 1100 diabetic patients underwent retinal examination. Am...
متن کاملHemoglobin variants and hemoglobin A1c analysis: problem solved?
Measurement of glycohemoglobin (GHb) is an integral component of the management of patients with diabetes mellitus (1, 2). Glycation is the nonenzymatic addition of a sugar residue to amino groups of proteins. Numerous proteins in the body are glycated, but GHb in blood is the analyte most widely used clinically to monitor glycemic control. The concentration of GHb is directly proportional to t...
متن کاملReticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent to detect thalassemia and thalassemic hemoglobin variants
INTRODUCTION Thalassemia and iron deficiency may both result in hypochromic microcytic anemia. Hematological algorithms that differentiate the two are mainly established in adult selected diagnostic groups. We aimed at creating an algorithm applicable in the presence of children, hemoglobin variants, and iron deficiency. METHODS Our study material constituted blood samples referred during 1 y...
متن کاملPolymerization of Recombinant Hemoglobin F yE6V and Hemoglobin F yE6V, yQ87T Alone, and in Mixtures With Hemoglobin S
To further understand determinants for Hemoglobin (Hb) S polymerization, as well as the inhibitory mechanism of Hb F on Hb S polymerization, Hb F variants containing Val-* (Hb F yE6V) or Val-*, Thr-y87 (Hb F yE6V. yQ87Tj were expressed in yeast. The oxy form of Hb F yE6V was about 10-fold less stable to mechanical agitation than native oxy Hb F, which is similar to stability differences compari...
