Objective: to evaluate the research status and development hotspots of fetal α-thalassemia by quantitatively analyzing the diagnostic status, key areas, related management measures and prospects of the disease by bibliometrics.
Methods: The global literature on fetal α-thalassemia and severe α-thalassemia from 2009-2023 in the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) was visually analyzed by VOSviewer and CiteSpace.
Results: (1) The examination of the quantity of publications concerning fetal α-thalassemia indicates a rising tendency prior to 2018, followed by a decrease after 2018.

Fission yeast is the ideal model organism for studying telomere maintenance in higher eukaryotes. Telomere length has been directly correlated with life expectancy and the onset of aging-related diseases in mammals. In this study, we developed a novel simple, and reproducible method to measure the telomere length, by investigating the effect of Caffeine and Cisplatin on the telomere length in fission yeast.

Background And Objectives: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hemoglobinopathy resulting in hemoglobin-S production, hemolytic anemia, and elevated stroke risk. Treatments include oral hydroxyurea, blood transfusions, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Our objective was to evaluate the neurologic relevance of these therapies by characterizing how treatment-induced changes in hemoglobin (Hb) affect brain health biomarkers.

With the improvement in survival and the reduction in morbidity related to sickle cell disease (SCD), aspects related to reproductive health are emerging as a priority in the care of affected people. We conducted a systematic review looking for evidence describing the functional ovarian reserve levels in women with sickle cell disease. To locate studies, a search was performed in electronic databases, in addition to preprint servers and reference lists of selected publications.

Hydroxyurea (hydroxycarbamide, HU) arrests cells in the S-phase by inhibiting ribonucleotide reductase and DNA synthesis, significantly contributing to the release of nitric oxide (NO). We investigated the involvement of inducible NO synthase (NOS2) in the cytostatic effect of HU using in vitro shRNA-induced knockdown of the NOS2 transcript (NOS2) or a specific NOS2 inhibitor (1400W) in human erythroleukemic HEL92.1.
