Beta-thalassemia minor (BTM) patients usually experience fatigue, bone pain complaint, and muscle weakness. Carnitine is an essential protein for transportation of long-chain fatty acids to the matrix for beta-oxidation. BTM patients have abnormally low plasma carnitine concentrations, which results
Patients with beta-thalassemia major (BTM) suffer from fatigue, poor physical fitness, muscle weakness, lethargy, and cardiac complications which are related to an energy crisis. Carnitine and acylcarnitine derivatives play important roles in fatty acid oxidation, and deregulation of carnitine and
A 52-year-old woman presented with recurrent episodes of chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, and fatigue for three months. Her past medical history was significant for chronic anemia. Physical examination revealed a pansystolic murmur radiating to the left axilla. Her admission workup
Background and objective: Transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) is a rare genetic disease characterized by a deficiency of functional β-globin, ultimately leading to lifelong dependence on blood transfusions. There is little patient-
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease, with multisystemic involvement. Hemoglobin E/beta-thalassemia (HbE/beta-thalassemia) is the genotype responsible for approximately one-half of all severe beta-thalassemia worldwide. When beta-thalassemia and SLE coexist, SLE seems
It appears that delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions may occur several days after the administration of donor red cells is true even though they have been shown to be compatible in cross match tests by the antiglobulin technique. A specific case was observed in our center, which confirms the
We aimed to investigate whether the severity of fatigue and the incidences of depression and anxiety of patients with beta thalassemia minor (BTm) are different than healthy individuals using Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) BTm patients who were followed
The coinheritance of beta-thalassemia major with the genotype of Hb H disease is extremely rare, with few reported cases. We investigated the hematological, biochemical, biosynthetic, molecular and pathophysiological parameters to evaluate a rare male patient with this compound syndrome. The patient
OBJECTIVE
To report a case of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis in a patient with beta thalassemia major secondary to treatment with deferasirox due to iron overload.
METHODS
A 58-year-old white female with beta thalassemia major was admitted with fever, fatigue, abnormal liver function test
ABSTRACT Genetically modified rice that incorporates twofold to threefold increased amounts of iron is being developed. The product could provide improved nutrition to iron-deficient persons but may be a health hazard to large numbers of humans who are prone to iron overload. Clinical disorders such
Clinical, hematologic and hemoglobin composition data on the first case of Hb 0-Arab in association with beta 0-thalassemia in Yugoslavia are reported here. The propositus was a 26-years-old female from Strumica who was admitted to the hospital for several times because of anemia,
