Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Introduction Beta-thalassemia major (β-TM) patients are subjected to iron overload as a consequence chronic blood transfusions. The redundant affects, among other organs, the heart resulting in myocardial dysfunction. Iron deposition does not only affect ventricular myocardium but atrial well. According current practice, overall s...
background: cardiac dysfunction due to chronic anemia and hemosiderosis are the major causes of death among patients with thalassemia intermedia. this study was performed to compare the cardiac function in thalassemia intermedia patients with normal subjects by means of echocardiography. materials and methods: this was a case-control study performed on 22 patients affected by thalassemia interm...
The non-invasive diagnosis of coronary artery disease by exercise electrocardiography is less accurate in women than in men, with a high rate of false-positive results in women. In contrast, recent studies have demonstrated that stress echocardiography in women is more accurate than exercise echocardiography and that the significantly higher specificity of stress electrocardiography may have th...
BACKGROUND Heart disease is the main cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with beta thalassemia, rendering its early diagnosis vital. We studied and compared echocardiographic findings in patients with beta thalassemia major, patients with beta thalassemia intermedia, and a control group. METHODS Eighty asymptomatic patients with thalassemia major and 22 asymptomatic cases with thalas...
introduction: hearing impairment is the most frequent sensorial congenital defect in newborns and has increased to 2–4 cases per 1,000 live births. sensory-neural hearing loss (snhl) accounts for more than 90% of all hearing loss. this disorder is associated with other congenital disorders such as renal, skeletal, ocular, and cardiac disorders. given that congenital heart diseases are life-thre...
Background N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a marker to evaluate the cardiac involvement in thalassemia. We aimed to evaluate conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography findings and its relation to plasma NT-pro BNP, Ferritin and Iron levels in beta-thalassemia patients. Materials and Methods This study performed on 164 participants equal of major beta- thalassemi...
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 ...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate cardiac findings in 31 Noonan syndrome patients. METHODS Thirty-one (18 males and 13 females)patients from 26 families affected with Noonan's syndrome were evaluated from the cardiac point of view with electrocardiography and Doppler echocardiography. RESULTS Twenty patients had some type of cardiac abnormality. The most frequent was pulmonary valve stenosis followed b...
Introduction : Patients with major thalassemia need recurrent transfusions and if not treated are at risk of heart dysfunction. Heart tissue could be abnormal in patients who use desferral continously due to iron deposits , fibrosis , hypertrophy and side effects of chronic anemia. Cardiac involvement is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in major thalassemics, so we decided to improve e...
