Abstract:
Objective Soluble serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) is a valuable indicator to diagnose iron deficiency anemia in pregnant women whose indexes will alter because of gestation. Thus it is worth to compare and analyze the levels of sTfR among the pregnant women with thalassemia, healthy pregnant women, and the pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia. Methods ?-thalassemia and ?-thalassemia were detected employing with the percentage of hemolysis and gene assay in the pregnant women randomly selected from those aged 24~30, 20~24 weeks of gestation, and with no other complications. The ratio of OD413nm of HbA2 to OD413nm of HbA was used to distinguish from the two kinds of thalassemia. Then the genetic mutation or deletion of ?-thalassemia patients and nucleotide mutation of ?-thalassemia patients were detected with thalassemia detection kit. The value of sTfR in serum of different samples was measured with ELISA kit. Results 20 pregnant women were diagnosed as thalassemia by the percentage of hemolysis higher than 63%. Among them, 10, 9 and 1 women were judged as ?-thalassemia, ?-thalassemia and ?,?-thalassemia, respectively. The mean value of sTfR was 18.614?8.464nmol/L of thelassemia women during pregnancy, which was evidently lower than 28.1 nmol/L (P
