background and purpose: despite extensive research on family planning and education, reproductive behavior of high-risk couples for thalassemia remains a major concern among medical professionals. this study aimed to evaluate the knowledge and attitude of carrier couples for transfusion-dependent thalassemia major (tdtm). methods: this case-control study was conducted 327 carrier couples for th...
Combined megaloblastic anemia with thalassemia is easily masked because of the loss of macrocytosis. We performed a retrospective study to compare the major parameters in 4 groups of subjects in order to show the characteristics of patients with megaloblastic anemia and thalassemia. Group A comprised 9 patients with megaloblastic anemia and tha-lassemia, group B comprised 10 patients with uncom...
Purpose: The most common anemias are iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and beta-thalassemia minor (BTm). A correct differantiation of them is important in terms preventing unnecessary treatment also thalassemia disease. Considering the financial limitations specifically countries with high prevalence thalassemia, mathematical indices, which simpler solutions, have been used to achieve a differential...
I read with great interest the recent publication by Bayraktar et al. [1] on nitric oxide (NO) in beta thalassemia minor. in which they reached the conclusion that “These findings confirm that plasma NO levels in betathalassemia minor patients are decreased at the time of diagnosis.” Bayraktar et al. also noted the possible usefulness of NO level in assessing the prognosis and follow-up evaluat...
The inherited diseases of hemoglobin have remarkable phenotypic variability because of genetic modifiers necessitating medical intervention at various stages of disease. Genotype–phenotype relationship is crucial in this regard. So three year retrospective study of biochemical pattern of Hemoglobinopathies and Thalassemias and their clinical manifestations was done in a cohort of 689 patients i...
We observed increased numbers of an infrequently referenced poikilocyte, the prekeratocyte, in iron deficiency anemia (IDA) compared with beta-thalassemia minor and anemia of chronic disease (ACD) and, therefore, chose to quantify these cells and other morphologic features in these anemias. Prekeratocytes were observed in 31 (78%) of 40 IDAs vs 11 (37%) of 30 beta-thalassemias (P = .001) and 5 ...
β-thalassemia major can be caused by homozygosity or compound heterozygosity for β-globin gene mutations (HBB gene). Most cases are inherited from parents who both have diseased alleles of the HBB gene. We report a patient with late-onset β-thalassemia major that evolved from β-thalassemia minor in which only one of her parents had the diseased HBB gene. To study the cause of β-thalassemia majo...
Thalassemia and other structural haemoglobinopathies are the major erythrocyte formation disorder prevalent in certain parts of the world including Bangladesh. We investigated 600 cases of anaemic patients referred from various parts of the country for diagnosis and counselling during 3 months (April to June 2011) of time. The most common form of haemoglobin (Hb) formation disorder observed in ...
Genetic factors influencing Hb F content in adult red blood cells include β-thalassemia genotypes, co-inheritance of α-thalassemia traits and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Genotyping of α- and β-thalassemia and five SNPs in β-globin gene cluster previously identified in genome-wide association studies as being markers of elevated Hb F in β-thalassemia were performed in 81 subjects dia...
