Background: Pain during invasive procedures is an unpleasant thing experienced by all children when hospitalized, including with acute illnesses or chronic diseases such as thalassemia. Nurses need to implement interventions from atraumatic care reduce the pain felt children, providing audiovisual distraction techniques. This study aimed see difference in thalassemia and non-thalassemia after b...

This is a report of couple with abnormal hematological indices who were investigated for α & β-thalassemia mutations. Based on CBC and capillary hemoglobin electrophoresis results, the male female subjects β α-thalassemia carriers, respectively. Multiplex-Gap-PCR Sanger sequencing techniques used identification mutations β-globin genes. The DNA test showed presence c.315 + 1 G > A mutati...

Introduction: Chronic vascular inflammatory state plays an important role in the pathophysiology of thalassemia. Cross-sectional studies suggest that exercise has anti-inflammatory effects, leading to lower levels of several proatherogenic inflammatory markers. However, this has yet to be confirmed by randomized prospective trials. The present pilot study examined the effect of Concurrent) Trai...

In Southeast Asia alpha-thalassemia, beta-thalassemia, hemoglobin (Hb) E and Hb Constant Spring are prevalent. The gene frequencies of alpha-thalassemia reach 30-40% in Northern Thailand and Laos. beta-Thalassemia gene frequencies vary between 1 and 9%. Hb E is the hallmark of Southeast Asia attaining a frequency of 50-60% at the junction of Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia. Hb Constant Spring gene...

OBJECTIVE Changing patterns of immigration to North America, along with improved treatment, have altered the clinical spectrum of thalassemia, one of the world's most common genetic diseases. The new demography of the disease, with its widely variable phenotypes, has implications for its diagnosis, counseling, and management. Characterization of the new spectrum of this ancient disease, now pre...

Mục tiêu nghiên cứu: Mô tả đặc điểm huyết học và tỷ lệ lưu hành gen bệnh tan máu bẩm sinh (thalassemia) của người dân từ 15 – 20 tuổi tại tỉnh Cao Bằng. Phương pháp cắt ngang có phân tích trên đối tượng là 355 Bằng tháng 9/2021 đến 1/2023. Kết quả Tỷ thiếu chung ở 15-20 19,1%; mức độ nặng 1,4%, vừa 7,6%, nhẹ 10,1%; hồng cầu nhỏ nhược sắc 24,8%; sắt đơn thuần 1,4%; 4,2%, bất thường tố 6,2% theo ...

Thalassemia is a hereditary disease caused by abnormalities in red blood cells which the individual has gene disorder that causes reduced production of hemoglobin cells. People with Thalassemia, especially type Major, need routine therapy and medication. These medication activities sometimes cause various problems obstacles lives people thalassemia both physically psychologically. Individuals a...

Thalassemia is a hematological disorder caused by gene mutation that leads to defective synthesis of hemoglobin complex. One the complications thalassemia hypocalcemia which presented with paresthesia, muscle spasm, low-serum calcium, and intracranial calcification. Hypocalcemia can affect thalassemic patients via various mechanisms. Blood transfusion-related transfusion-independent iron overlo...

Thalassemia, an inherited quantitative globin disorder, consists of two types, α– and β–thalassemia. β–thalassemia is a heterogeneous disease that can be asymptomatic, mild, or even severe. Considerable research has focused on investigating its underlying etiology. These studies found DNA hypomethylation in the β–globin gene cluster significantly related to fetal hemoglobin (HbF) elevation. His...

Thalassemia is a chronic disease that can affect quality of life. The purpose this study was to determine the effect family support, transfusion compliance and self-efficacy on life children with thalassemia. This research correlational cross-sectional approach. sample consisted 45 people. Data were collected using questionnaires, statistical analysis descriptive data respondents’ characteristi...
