The haemoglobinopathies and thalassemias represent the most common inherited monogenic disorders in the world. Beta-thalassaemia major is an ongoing public health problem in Malaysia. Prior to 2004, the country had no national policy for screening and registry for thalassemia. In the absence of a national audit, the true figure of the extent of thalassemia in the Malaysian population was largel...
Microcytosis is a common hematological finding, usually related to iron deficiency or beta-thalassemia. When both of these conditions are excluded, alpha-thalassemia must be considered in the differential diagnosis. No simple biochemical test is able to diagnose the alpha-thalassemia trait. Using PCR amplification of the breakpoint in deletional forms, and amplification of the alpha 2 gene and ...
BACKGROUND Thalassemia major is one of the most common genetic disorders in Pakistan and over five thousand new patients are added in the pool annually. This familial disease has both medical and social implications, and therefore there is a need to assess the magnitude of beta-Thalassemia trait amongst family members of Thalassemia major patients. METHODS This cross-sectional descriptive stu...
background: thalassemia is one of the most common hereditary disorders and beta-thalassemia major is its severe form. the present study is concerned with the analysis of liver function, thyroid function and estimation of critical serum ions as well as hematological characteristics in beta-thalassemia patients and controls. subjects and methods: the study included 54 patients with beta-thalassem...
PURPOSE Patients with beta thalassemia major are at increased risk for bacterial infections specially splenectomized patients. The aim of this study was to determine the anti-tetanus antibody concentration among patients with beta thalassemia major. MATERIALS AND METHODS The anti-tetanus antibody concentration was investigated in 224 patients with thalassemia major and 224 healthy subjects ma...
Dermatoglyphs are cutaneous ridges on the fingers, palms, and soles, formed during early intrauterine life. During this period, and only then, genetic and environmental factors can influence their formation. Beta-thalassemia major is an genetic disease. The aim of the present work was to analyze dermatoglyphs traits in subjects with beta-thalassemia major and their thalassemia carrier parents. ...
Background: The role of phosphate hemostasis in development of thalassemia bone disease has not been extensively studied yet. Due to the lack of sufficient human studies about the changes of serum Fibroblast growth factor-23(FGF23) in patients with beta-thalassemia major as the first step of investigating the role of FGF23 in thalassemia bone disease, the present study aimed to investigate the ...
Background and Objectives: Beta-thalassemia continues to be a cause of significant burden to the society particularly in the poorer developing countries. Although sophisticated methods of screening have become available, a hunt for a cheap, rapid, objective screening method still remains elusive. Thus, the objectives are to study the validity of Naked-Eye-Single-Tube-OsmoticFragility-Test (NEST...
Hepcidin levels and iron status in beta-thalassemia major patients with hepatitis C virus infection.
Beta-thalassemia is an inherited anemia in which synthesis of the hemoglobin beta-chain is decreased. Clinical features of beta-thalassemia include variably severe anemia and iron overload due to increased intestinal iron absorption, which may result in damage to vital organs. The hepatic peptide; hepcidin is a key regulator of iron metabolism in mammals. The present study aimed to determine th...
BACKGROUND beta-thalassemia is the most common inherited single gene disorder worldwide, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzyme deficiency. The goal of this study was to compare the frequency of beta-thalassemia trait and G6PD among the Moslem and Jewish populations in Shiraz, southern Iran. METHODS We examined 201 Moslems and 187 Jewish subjec...
