Serum Antioxidant Levels in Children with Beta-Thalassemia Major

Background: Thalassemia represents a serious health problem in Iran because of its heterogeneous frequency and the existing endogamy system. It is an inherited blood disease characterized by the under production of normal hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, serum antioxidants including selenium (Se), zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) were m...

DETERMINATION OF SERUM LIPOPROTEINS IN BETA-THALASSEMIA TRAIT AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO CHRONIC HEMOLYSIS

100 patients with beta-thalassemia trait, comprised of 55 men and 45 women, participated in a study to measure serum lipoproteins. The results were compared with the data obtained from 100 control subjects of the same age and sex. A significantly lower level of mean serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol, and a much higher level of HDL cholesterol were obtained in beta-thalassemia trai...

Serum transferrin receptor levels in patients with thalassemia intermedia during rHuEPO administration.

In this study we determined the levels of circulating soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) in six untransfused and two transfused patients affected by beta-thalassemia intermedia during low-dose rHuEPO administration. While the majority of the untransfused patients showed a temporary increment during the first month of treatment, a higher and enduring increase in sTfR concentration was observed ...

Prevalence of Beta Thalassemia Trait in Denizli.

Beta thalassemia, characterized by the deficiency or the absence of beta globulin production, is the most widespread inherited disorder in the world and is also common in Turkey. To determine the prevalence of carriers for beta thalassemia, we screened the couples before their marriage. For this aim, from 1994 to 1999, a total of 14.200 people were screened. The complete blood count and red blo...

Correlation between Mean Serum Ferritin Levels and Atrial Electrocardiographic Markers in Beta-Thalassemia Major

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in patients with β-thalassemia major (β-TM) due to cardiac iron overload. AF may be predicted by changes in P wave parameters. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between P-wave parameters and atrial markers with mean serum ferritin levels measured yearly. Methods: Fifty patients with β-TM and 50 healthy subje...
