Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary hypertension (PHT) is a common yet poorly understood complication of β thalassemia intermedia (TI). METHODS: We herein evaluated risk factors for PHT in TI, through comparing 64 TI patients with evidence of PHT by symptomatology and echocardiography (Group I) to age- and sex-matched TI patients without PHT (Group II). Retrieved data included demographics, laboratory parameters, clinical...
