Mild to severe anemia is caused by thalassemia, a common genetic disorder affecting over 100 countries worldwide, that results from the abnormality of one or several of the four globin genes. This leads to chronic hemolytic anemia and disrupted synth...
This study explores the performance of deep learning models, specifically Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and XGBoost, in predicting alpha and beta thalassemia using both public and private datasets. Thalassemia is a genetic disorder that impairs...

The blood counts of α thalassemia carriers (α-thal) are similar to those of β thalassemia carriers, except for Hemoglobin A (Hb A), which is not elevated. The objective of this study was to determine whether mathematical formulas are effective for de...
Hb S/Hb E (: c.20A>T/: c.79G>A) is an uncommon variant of sickle cell disease resulting from coinheritance of Hb S and Hb E. Clinico-hematological and biochemical parameters of 35 cases of Hb S/Hb E disease were studied and compared with 70 matched c...
