purpose: to report concomitant angioid streaks and skin lesions in a patient with β thalassemia. patient and findings: a 47-year-old female, a known case of b thalassemia, presented with gradual decrease of vision in her right eye. on indirect ophthalmoscopy of both eyes, angioid streaks were detected. on fluorescencin angiography, hyperfluorescence of streaks without signs of choroidal neovasc...

early and regular blood transfusion therapy in patients with homozygous beta-thalassemia decreases the complications of severe anemia and prolongs survival. in the long term, however, the beneficial effects of transfusions are limited by the organ damage resulting from iron overload. endocrine complications in patients with thalassemia major in developing countries may be frequent due t o subop...

Researchers have identified and defined β- approach normed space if some conditions are satisfied. In this work, we show that every is a space.However, the converse not necessarily true by giving an example. addition, define β – Banach space, examples given. We also solve problems. discuss finite β-dimensional app-normed β-complete consequent app- space. explain metric but give propositions. If...

Background With the ever-expanding interconnectedness of internet and especially with recent development Internet Things, people are increasingly at risk for cybersecurity breaches that can have far-reaching consequences their personal professional lives, psychological mental health ramifications. Objective We aimed to identify dimensional structure emotion processes triggered by one most emble...

Background & Aim: Diabetes is one of the chronic diseases with no curative treatment; also, it is the most common cause of amputation, blindness and chronic renal failure and the most important risk factor of heart diseases. Logistic regression is one of the statistical analysis models for predicting that can be used to find out the relationship between dependent and predictor independent varia...

Abstract Introduction Circadian factors may contribute to sleep difficulties among chronic insomnia disorder (CID) patients who do not otherwise meet full criteria for a circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder, particularly delayed and advanced phase disorders. Current nosology suggests that using preference measures can provide important diagnostic information aid in differential diagnosis. Howev...

abstract objective cardiac dysfunction is a major cause of death in patients with beta thalassemia. in these patients, repeated blood transfusion, ineffective erythropoiesis and increased gastrointestinal iron absorption lead to iron overload in the body and this induced heart failure. left ventricular ejection fraction was measured in major beta thalassemia (β-th) patients to detect the relati...

objective: helicobacter pylori has a well-established role in the development of gastric cancer. in vitro studies reveal increased proliferation of the gastric mucosa in the presence of h. pylori infection. it has been also shown that production of some cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta (il-1b) is increased in h. pylori infection. in addition, il-1b increases proliferation of gastric epithe...

Natural kaolinite was subjected to a successful exfoliation process into separated nanosheets (KNs), followed by hybridization with β-cyclodextrin biopolymer (β-CD), forming an advanced bio-nanocomposite (β-CD/KNs). The synthetic products were evaluated as enhanced delivery structures for oxaliplatin chemotherapy (OXAPN). of KNs β-CD polymer notably the loading capacity 355.3 mg/g (β-CD/KNs) co...
