Abstract:
Abstract Certain red blood cell (RBC) disorders, including thalassemia, have been associated with an innate protection against malaria infection. However, many in vitro correlative studies have been inconclusive. To better understand the relationship between human RBCs with thalassemia hemoglobinopathies and susceptibility to in vitro infection, we used an in vitro coculture system that involved biotin labeling and flow cytometry to study the ability of normal and variant RBC populations in supporting the growth of Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites. Results showed that both normal and thalassemic RBCs were susceptible to P falciparum invasion, but the parasite multiplication rates were significantly reduced in the thalassemic RBC populations. The growth inhibition was especially marked in RBCs from -thalassemia patients (both -thalassemia1/-thalassemia2 and -thalassemia1 heterozygote). Our observations support the contention that thalassemia confers protection against malaria and may explain why it is more prevalent in malaria endemic areas.

Abstract:
Oxidative damage induced by free globin chains has been implicated in the pathogenesis of the membrane abnormalities observed in alpha and beta thalassemia. We have evaluated transport of Na+ and K+ in erythrocytes of patients with thalassemias as well as in two experimental models that use normal human red blood cells, one for alpha thalassemia (methylhydrazine treatment, alpha thalassemia like) and one for beta thalassemia (phenylhydrazine treatment, beta thalassemia like). With the exception of the Na-K pump, similar alterations in membrane transport were observed in thalassemia and thalassemia-like erythrocytes. These were: increased K-Cl cotransport, Na-Li countertransport and reduced Na-K-Cl cotransport. The Na-K pump was reduced in thalassemia-like cells, whereas it was increased in severe alpha thalassemia and in beta thalassemia cells. The increased K- Cl cotransport activity could be observed in light and dense fractions of beta-thalassemic cells. K-Cl cotransport in thalassemic and thalassemia-like erythrocytes was partially inhibited by [(dihydro- indenyl) oxy] alkanoic acid and completely abolished by dithiothreitol. Thus, oxidative damage represents an important factor in the increased activity of the K-Cl cotransport observed in thalassemias, and of the K+ loss observed in beta-thalassemia erythrocytes.

Abstract:
Background: Nearly 226 million carriers of thalassemias and abnormal hemoglobin are present worldwide according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The laboratory plays an important role in the investigation of the thalassemias and hemoglobinopathies. Cellulose acetate electrophoresis at alkaline pH and diagnosis based mainly on visual impression of thickness of band may miss the thalassemic trait patients. The aim of this study was to find out different hemoglobinopathies and thalassemia presenting in our hospital and to compare electrophoresis results with HPLC.Materials and Methods: This study was performed in the hematopathology section of Department of Pathology of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital on cases sent for electrophoresis during 18 months period from October 2013 to March 2015 and included hemoglobinopathies and thalassemias identified by either electrophoresis or HPLC. 97 cases fulfilled the inclusion criteria and thus were included in the study. Electrophoresis at alkaline pH was done in all whereas HPLC was performed in 27 cases.Results: A sharp peak of hemoglobinopathies and thalassemias was seen in Tharu community though other communities are also affected. Thalassemia trait was the most common diagnosis (26.8%) followed by sickle cell anemia (21.6%). Electrophoresis was efficient in detecting some alpha thalassemia variants but missed many cases of beta thalassemia trait.Conclusion: Beta Thalassemia trait and sickle cell anemia both are common in Nepal , along with some other hemoglobinopathies A sharp peak of hemoglobinopathies and thalassemias are seen in Tharu community. These abnormal hemoglobins and thalassemias are mainly seen in Terai region. Electrophoresis fails to quantify hemoglobin percentage and thus is not appropriate test in beta thalassemia screening.

Abstract:
Due to the recent alarming increase in the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in thalassemias, the aim of the present report is to review briefly the frequency, the major risk factors and the surveillance of HCC in β-thalassemias. Over the past 33 years, 153 cases of HCC were reported in patients with thalassemia, mainly in Italy, and Greece. Among HCV-infected patients additional factors promoting development of HCC, included: advanced age, male sex, chronic hepatitis B (CHB) coinfection, and iron overload. For early diagnosis of HCC sequential ultrasound screening is recommended especially for thalassemia patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC), that coincide with (one or more) additional risk factors for HCC. Here we report also the preliminary data of thalassemic patients, above the age of 30 years, followed in 13 different centers. The total number of enrolled patients was 1,313 (males: 612 and 701 females). The prevalence of HCC in thalassemia major patients [characterized by transfusion-dependency (TDT)] and thalassemia intermedia [characterized by nontransfusion dependency (NTDT)] was 1.68 % and 1.98 % ,respectively The lowest age at diagnosis was 36 years in TDT and 47 years in NTDT patients.We hope that our review can be used to develop more refined and prospective analyses of HCC magnitude and risk in patients with thalassemia, and to define specific international guidelines to support clinicians for an early diagnosis and treatment of HCC in thalassemic patients.

Abstract:
Introduction: Thalassemia is a haematologic disorder impairing craniofacial development in inadequately treated patients. Research on craniofacial parameters in Bangladeshi thalassemic population comparing to non-thalassemics is scarce. This study aimed to determine the differences in craniofacial parameters if any between thalassemic patients and non-thalassemic individuals in Chattogram, Bangladesh across both sexes. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional analytical study was carried out among 100 respondents (50 transfusion dependent thalassemia patients and 50 non-thalassemic healthy individuals) of 5-30 years during 2020 in Chittagong Medical College, Bangladesh. To measure 10 key craniofacial parameters (head circumference, 6 horizontal and 3 vertical) in cranial, facial, nasal and orbital zones, digital slide caliper and tape were used. To test statistical significance Mann-Whitney U test and unpaired student’s t-test were done as appropriate. Results: The face height of non-thalassemic males was higher than that of thalassemia patients and this was significant (p = 0.027), the intercanthal distance in male with thalassemia showed high significant difference (p= 0.024). When compared to their non-thalassemic peers, thalassemic females patients were observed with significantly larger head circumference (p = 0.025) and head width (p = 0.031). There were differences between the groups in other craniofacial parameters but statistically non-significant (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Distinct differences in craniofacial parameters between thalassemic and non-thalassemic individuals are highlighted which emphasize the impact of thalassemia on craniofacial development, with potential implications for clinical management in thalassemic patients in Bangladesh. Further research is recommended to explore these differences' underlying mechanisms and broader inferences. Update Dent. Coll. j: 2025; 15(1): 9-14

Abstract:
Abstract The aim of the present work was to understand the pathophysiology of the severe human thalassemias as represented by beta-thalassemia intermedia and hemoglobin (Hb) H (alpha-thalassemia) disease. We have previously shown that the material properties of the red blood cell (RBC) and its membrane differ in severe alpha- and beta-thalassemia, and we now show that this difference is probably caused by accumulation of alpha-globin chains at the cytoskeleton in beta-thalassemia, whereas beta-globin chains are associated with the cytoskeleton in alpha- thalassemia. In both alpha- and beta-thalassemia, some of these globin chains have become oxidized as evidenced by loss of the free thiols. Furthermore, there is similar evidence of oxidation of protein 4.1 in beta-thalassemia, whereas beta-spectrin appears to be subject to oxidation in alpha-thalassemia. These observations support the idea that the association of partly oxidized globin chains with the cytoskeleton results in oxidation of adjacent skeletal proteins. The abnormality of protein 4.1 in beta-thalassemia is consistent with a prior observation, and is also in accord with the known importance of protein 4.1 in maintenance of membrane stability, a property that is abnormal in beta-thalassemic membranes.

Abstract:
Thalassemia is an individual as well as a community health problem in some countries. It causes a lifelong suffering for the affected individuals. There is no treatment other than supportive, i.e. regular transfusions and removal of iron overload from the body. Only by such continuous and expensive treatment thalassemic patients can-generally achieve nearly normal health, but the health burden of such therapy for a large number of thalassemic patients is unaffordable by the affected communities. Prevention of the births of thalassemic babies is the choice for controlling the thalassemia and has been successful in many countries. For this purpose reliable and time accurate prenatal diagnosis is a conditio sine qua non. Blood fetal sampling is safe and can be done after 16 weeks gestation, amniocentesis after 14 weeks, and even chorionic villi sampling as early as 8 weeks gestation. In vitro globin synthesis analysis applied to the fetal blood sample is very reliable to measure the rate of synthesis of the globin chains that make up the hemoglobin. The-DNA analysis of the fibroblasts obtained by amniocentesis or of the chorionic villus sample is very sensitive and specific for the diagnosis of the genetic disorder in thalassemias. By involving the prenatal diagnosis, the birth of B-homozygous thalassemia has decreased by up to 90%.

Abstract:
Homozygous α0-thalassemia is a serious autosomal recessive disorder with poor fetal outcome and severe maternal complications. Conventionally, prenatal diagnosis is performed by an invasive test. A non-invasive approach using serial ultrasonography can effectively reduce the need for invasive tests in unaffected pregnancies. For two-dimensional ultrasound prediction, a total of 777 at-risk fetuses were studied from 12 to 20 weeks between 1995 and 2006. At 12–15 weeks’ gestation, the highest sensitivity (98.3%) was achieved by the combination of fetal cardiothoracic ratio (CTR) and/or middle cerebral artery peak systolic velocity (MCA-PSV) at a false-positive rate of 15.8%. At 16–20 weeks’ gestation, the sensitivity of CTR was 100.0%, but the false-positive rate was 5.2%. In contrast, the false-positive rate of MCA-PSV alone was 1.4% and that of the combination of CTR and MCA-PSV was 0%, although their sensitivities were less than 65%. In a cross-sectional retrospective study of 546 samples at-risk and control (268 fetal and 278 neonatal cord blood), the degree of anemia was only mild in 27.5% of the affected fetuses (see chapter 3 for definition of mild anemia). Because MCA-PSV is not very predictive of mild anemia, this may be one of the reasons why MCA-PSV is not very sensitive in predicting an affected pregnancy. A total of 832 at-risk pregnancies were studied using same noninvasive approach at Maternal and Neonatal Hospital of Guangzhou (MNH) and Tsan Yuk Hospital (TYH). The overall sensitivity and specificity of the noninvasive approach was 100% and 95.6% respectively. At MNH, the need for an invasive test was reduced by 78.6%, and all the affected pregnancies were diagnosed before 24 weeks’ gestation. After adequate training and monitoring the quality of the subsequent ultrasound examinations, the results achieved at MNH were comparable to TYH, with at-risk pregnancies including the affected ones being seen at a more advanced gestation at MNH. In a retrospective review of 361 women at risk of carrying an affected fetus, 311 (86.2%) opted for the non-invasive approach using CTR and/or placenta. The cost saving of this non-invasive approach was relatively small (HK$ 2,651) in comparison to the cost of the whole prenatal screening program. On the other hand, the non-invasive approach was more expensive than the direct invasive approach for low MCV couples, as well as couples discordant for α-thalassemia and β-thalassemia. ages. These results support the adoption of non-invasive approach in which routine invasive test or karyotyping is no longer performed. A total of 106 at-risk pregnancies and normal controls were prospectively studied using three-dimensional ultrasonography. Placental volume (PV) at 11-14 weeks, and PV/CRL quotient at 9-14 weeks’ gestation of affected pregnancies were significantly greater than unaffected pregnancies (P<0.05). Using a cut-off point of 1.2ml/mm for PV/CRL quotient to predict an affected pregnancy, the sensitivity, and specificity was 96.2%, and 100.0% respectively.<br>published_or_final_version<br>Obstetrics and Gynaecology<br>Master<br>Doctor of Medicine

Abstract:
Aim of the study: To assess serum sclerostin in female patients with beta-thalassemia and compare with the healthy controls and to predict its complication associated with the bone pathophysiology, for designed improvement the lifestyle goodliness for these patients. Material and methods: Sixty-nine female beta-thalassemia (βT) patients (54 βT major and 15 βT Intermedia), aged 8-40 years who dependent on transfused blood, and 20 healthy controls were evaluated serum sclerostin, and was examined the relationship with hematological parameters RBC, Hb, PCV, WBC, PLT, BMI, splenic status, iron, and ferritin levels. The information of beta-thalassemia patients was collected and recorded by the questioner. Results: A significantly increased serum sclerostin level (mean 26.80±0.91) pg/ml was shown in βT patients compared with the healthy controls (10.03±0.68, p &lt; 0.001) pg/ml. Furthermore, a significant decrease (p&lt;0.05) of the sclerostin level was observed in β-thalassemia major compared to intermedia β-thalassemia patients. Serum sclerostin level revealed a significant increase in progress age; it is highest in the age group (30-40) year as compared with age group (8-18) and (19-29) year respectively. Sclerostin showed no associations with the RBC, Hb, PCV, and significantly positively correlated (p&lt;0.05) with serum iron, ferritin levels, WBC, and PLT count. Significantly higher sclerostin levels in splenectomized and underweight groups were observed compared to unsplenectomized and normal-weight groups (p&lt;0.05) of βT patients. Conclusion: Sclerostin plays an important role in beta-thalassemia patients and can serve as a biomarker associated with the bone pathophysiology and indicator to prevent the continuation of such serious diseases caused by iron overload in these patients.

Abstract:
Background and Aim: The study investigates the relationship between the frequency of Klebsiella pneumoniae infections in individuals with Beta-thalassemia and iron excess, as determined by ferritin levels. Beta-thalassemia often results in iron overload, a prevalent concern intensified by regular blood transfusions, leading to increased ferritin levels. This study analyses how these characteristics contribute to vulnerability to K. pneumoniae infections, a notable source of illness in the Iraqi patient population. Methods: Seventy blood samples from thalassaemia patients of various genders and ages were donated for this study. Thermo Scientific chemical analysers analyzed human ferritin (FE). Vitek 2 Compact and traditional microbiology recognized K. pneumoniae. Results: The findings showed that in the 70 Thalassaemia patients’ group, both men and women donated blood samples. Of the samples examined, 39 (55.7%) were positive for K. pneumoniae. The serum ferritin levels of 58 people were 1000–3000 ng/ml. K. pneumoniae infections in Beta-thalassemia patients were linked to higher ferritin levels. Conclusion: Due to blood transfusions, beta-thalassemia patients with iron overload are at risk of bacterial infections, notably K. pneumoniae. The high rate of positive bacterial infection tests in Iraqi thalassaemia patients and their elevated ferritin levels demonstrate the importance of managing iron overload and monitoring ferritin levels to reduce infection risk
