abstract

abstract background: thalassemias are the most common inherited blood disorders caused by some mutations which can reduce the synthesis of globin chains. iron overload and its organ deposition are responsible for functional abnormalities and tissue injury in patients who affected by β-thalassemia major. the aim of this case-control study was evaluation of hematological parameters, oxidative stress and some serum liver and kidney risk factors which play crucial role for early prediction and prevention of patients to end-stage tissue failure and mortality. materials and methods: present study consisted of fifty young adult subjects with β-thalassemia major (β- tm) (aged< 18 years) and same number age and sex- matched healthy subjects as control group. hematological and biochemical laboratory parameters included urea, creatinine, uric acid, aspartate aminotransferase (ast), alanine transaminase (alt), alkaline phosphatase (alp) (pars azmoon kit), oxidative stress biomarker pab, giving a redox index (chemically), and serum high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-crp) were evaluated. results: urea, creatinine and uric acid were significantly decreased in patients group (p< 0.001); in spite of, serum ferritin, liver biomarkers ast, alt, alp and risk factor biomarker pab were statistically increased in patients versus control group(p< 0.001), whereas hs-crp(p>0.05) was not significantly difference in study groups. exception hs-crp and pab (p>0.05), liver risk factors had a positive correlation with ferritin and serum urea, creatinine and uric acid tests had negative meaningful with hematological parameters (p< 0.001). likewise, pab with ast showed a positive correlation (p< 0.001) and irreversibly with urea and creatinine (p< 0.001). we did not find a slight correlation between hs-crp in the company to hematological and biochemical laboratory finding (p>0.05). conclusion: higher level of risk factors pab values and key liver enzyme profiles are able to involve in the prognostic pathological consequences in patients with β-thalassemia major. even so, they contribute toward the gradual development of tissue injuries.

Evaluation of relationship between biochemical parameters and osteoporosis in patients with β-thalassemia major

Background: Osteoporosis is one of the late complications of β-Thalassemia major. The pathogenesis of osteoporosis depends on different factors. Ineffectiveness of hematopoiesis is the major factor, and the other factors are defected by hormonal functions or biochemical parameters. Osteoclasts hyperactivity in thalassemia increases the serum receptor activator of nuclear factor Kappa B ligand (...

Assessment Hepatomegaly and liver Enzymesin 100 Patients with beta Thalassemia Major in Mashhad, Iran

Abstract Background Frequent blood transfusion in patients with beta thalassemia major can lead to iron overload especially in liver. Chronic iron overload could cause cirrhosis of the liver. Transfusion- transmitted hepatitis B and C also could develop cirrhosis in individuals. Materials and Methods The present cross- sectional descriptive study is to assess hepatomegaly and liver enzymes ...

Correlation between Heart and Liver Iron Levels Measured by MRI T2* and Serum Ferritin in Patients with β-thalassemia Major

Background Transfusion-induced iron overload leads to many complications in patients with β-thalassemia major. This study aimed to compare the level of iron stored in the liver and heart measured by MRI T2 * with ferritin levels in these patients. Materials and Methods This study was done on 52 patients with β-thalassemia major aged 7 to 29 years. Serum ferritin level was checked and heart and ...

Association between serum ferritin level and diastolic cardiac function in patients with major β-thalassemia

Abstract Background Prevention of myocardial siderosis is a key step to reduce rate of mortality in thalassemic patients. Our objective was to study association between echocardiography parameters and serum ferritin level in patients with major thalassemia. Materials and Methods Sixty-six patients with major thalassemia were studied in Amir Kabir hospital, Arak, Iran. Serum ferritin levels ...
