Conclusions In an era of rising cost consciousness, prevention is the most effective way for
controlling β-thalassaemia. Efficient diagnostic approaches that can rule in or out diseases …

Materials and Methods: The study included 301 cases with mild-to-moderate reduction in
haemoglobin (Hb) with a lower cut-off value of 8 g/dl. Automated haematology analysis was …

Background and Objectives: β-thalassemia trait (β-TT) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) are
the most common forms of microcytic anemia. Screening of β-thalassemia trait is important …

Background: Beta-thalassemia trait (BTT) is a common genetic disorder of hemoglobin and
imposes a significant burden on global healthcare. Screening of this disorder is immensely …

Background: To determine the reliability of hematological indices and derived formulas in
diagnosing beta thalassemia trait. Methods: In this observational cohort study, patients …

ABSTRACT… Objectives: To assess the sensitivity of the various discrimination indices as
screening test in beta-thalassemia trait patients in our population. Study design: Cross …

Several attempts have been made previously to differentiate β-thalassaemia trait (BTT) from
other microcytic anaemias using formulae with red cell (RC) parameters. Presently available …

Objective: Red cell indices and parameters are used to screen beta-thalassemia trait (BTT).
Different red cell indices and formulae used to discriminate BTT in different populations …

A large majority of microcytic hypochromic anemia have defects in cellular hemoglobin
synthesis due to either iron deficiency or thalassemia trait; both differing in management and …

Background: The heterozygous state of Beta-Thalassemia ie Beta-Thalassemia Trait (BTT)
is usually not associated with any clinical symptoms and possesses abnormality in only a …
