Little is known about the outcome of pregnancy in women with beta-thalassemia intermedia (TI). Over 10 years, maternal and neonatal outcomes of women with TI followed at a single thalassemia center were reviewed. Nine spontaneous pregnancies in five women with TI were studied. Six pregnancies result

Couples in whom one is heterozygous for -thalassaemia-1 and the other is heterozygous for -thalassaemia are assumed not to be at risk of having offspring with homozygous -thalassaemia-1 or homozygous -thalassaemia. We retrospectively reviewed the genetic outcome of 189 pregnancies of 178 couples in
## Abstract Aspects of acute and chronic adrenal insufficiency of interest to surgeons who treat cancer patients are reviewed. Clinical features and the management of both primary and secondary types are considered with reference to classification, aetiology, diagnosis and treatment. Specifically c
In order to establish the molecular basis of -thalassaemia in Cubans, a total of 75 unrelated individuals, with -thalassaemia major (7), Hb S--thalassaemia (28), Hb C-thalassaemia (1), and -thalassaemia trait (39) yielding 82 -thalassaemia alleles, were analyzed. Seventeen different point muta
Thalassaemia is a group of genetic diseases where haemoglobin synthesis is impaired. This chronic anaemia leads to increased dietary iron absorption, which develops into iron overload pathology. Treatment through regular transfusions increases oxygen capacity but also provides iron through the red c
