TL;DR: It is concluded that increased Hb F production in beta-thalassemia/Hb E patients, with an improvement in the alpha:non-alpha globin ratios and, probably, the effectiveness of erythropoiesis, can be achieved using HU.
Journal ArticleDOI
Severity differences in β‐thalassaemia/haemoglobin E syndromes: implication of genetic factors
Winichagoon P,Varaporn Thonglairoam,Suthat Fucharoen,Prapon Wilairat,Yasuyuki Fukumaki,P. Wasi +5 more
TL;DR: Increased expression of the Gγ‐globin gene and higher production of haemoglobin F. which could reduce the overall globin chain imbalance, were also associated with homozygosity for the Xmn I cleavage site and thus with less severe anaemia, however, this effect was not seen inXmn I site heterozygotes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thalassemia in thailand
TL;DR: The numbers of patients with major thalassemic diseases examined in the department of medicine and pediatrics are shown, exclusive of the Hb Bart's hydrops fetalis.
Journal Article
Increased circulating platelet aggregates in thalassaemia.
TL;DR: It is recommended that anti-platelet aggregation drugs such as aspirin and/or dipyridamole are given to thalassaemic patients after splenectomy because of the newly observed high incidences of pulmonary artery thrombosis and hypoxaemia in splenectomized thalassed patients.
