background: the aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the cardiac and hepatic iron-overload as assessed by magnetic resonance imaging t2 star (mrit 2 -star) technique and serum ferritin level in patients with thalassemia major. methods: in this cross-sectional study we evaluated 170 patients in sayed shohada hospital in isfahan in the year of 2009, cardiac and hepatic iro...
Volume 41, January 2001 TRANSFUSION 123 Hemochromatosis occurs in approximately 1 in 200 white persons of Western European descent, and it increases the propensity to absorb excess iron. Iron overload associated with hemochromatosis can cause hepatic cirrhosis, primary liver cancer, arthropathy, diabetes mellitus, other endocrinopathic disorders, and a reduction in lifespan.1,2 These complicati...
MAIN DISORDERS OF IRON METABOLISM: Increased iron requirements, limited external supply, and increased blood loss may lead to iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia. In chronic inflammation, the excess of hepcidin decreases iron absorption and prevents iron recycling, resulting in hypoferraemia and iron restricted erythropoiesis, despite normal iron stores (functional iron deficiency)...
Mycobacterium avium Complex Infection in a Patient with Sickle Cell Disease and Severe Iron Overload
A 34-year-old female with sickle cell anemia (hemoglobin SS disease) and severe iron overload presented to our institution with the subacute presentation of recurrent pain crisis, fever of unknown origin, pancytopenia, and weight loss. A CT scan demonstrated both lung and liver nodules concerning for granulomatous disease. Subsequent biopsies of the liver and bone marrow confirmed the presence ...
BACKGROUND/AIMS Thalassaemia accompanied with iron-overload is common in Hong Kong. Iron-overload induced cardiomyopathy is the commonest cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with β-thalassaemia. Chronic iron-overload due to blood transfusion can cause cardiac failure. Decreased antioxidant defence and increased ROS production may lead to oxidative stress and cell injury. Iron-overload ...
Iron overload causes the generation of reactive oxygen species that can lead to lasting damage to the liver and other organs. The goal of this study was to identify genes that modify the toxicity of iron overload. We studied the effect of iron overload on the hepatic transcriptional and metabolomic profile in mouse models using a dietary model of iron overload and a genetic model, the hemojuvel...
Current Review of Iron Overload and Related Complications in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Iron overload is an adverse prognostic factor for patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the HSCT setting, pretransplant and early posttransplant ferritin and transferrin saturation were found to be highly elevated due to high transfusion requirements. In addition to that, post-HSCT iron overload was shown to be related to infections, hepatic sinusoidal obstructi...
background and aim: iron overload in patients with thalassemia major is one of the most important complications of this disease and its cardiac complications are the most important causes of death in these patients.mri t2 is the perfect device to assess the amount of iron deposited in the heart of thalassemia patients, but it causes waste of time and also is an expensive diagnostic method. tiss...
BACKGROUND Iron overload can affect cardiac structure and function by the production of free radicals in addition to iron deposits in heart muscle. The purpose of this study was to compare traditional and non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) in children and adolescents on renal replacement with and without iron overload. Also, we evaluated the relationships between iron overload a...
