Methemoglobin measure in adult patients with sickle-cell anemia : influence of ...
Laurentino, Marilia Rocha; Carvalho, Teresa Maria de Jesus Ponte; Santos, Talyta Ellen de Jesus dos; Barbosa, Maritza CavalcanteIntroduction: Hemoglobin S (HbS) is unstable hemoglobin that easily oxidizes, causing methemoglobin (MetHb) increased production in patients with sickle-cell anemia (SCA). Objectives: To determine MetHb levels and the influence of hydroxyurea (HU) therapy on this marker in patients with SCA. Materials and methods: Blood samples from 53 patients with SCA at the steady-state, with and without HU therapy, and 30 h...

Souza, Geane Felix de; Barbosa, Maritza Cavalcante; Santos, Talyta Ellen de Jesus; Carvalho, Teresa Maria de Jesus Ponte; Freitas, Rivelilson Mendes deMyelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are group of stem cell disorders characterised by peripheral cytopaenias and a variable risk of progression to acute myeloid leukaemia. Most patients have anaemia and many develop transfusion dependence and iron overload (IOL), considered to be a negative independent prognostic factor associated with a higher risk of leukemic transformation and shorter survival.
Standardization method for measurement of hydroxyurea by Ultra High Efficiency ...
Elias, Darcielle Bruna Dias; Carvalho, Teresa Maria de Jesus Ponte; Soares, Janete Eliza de Sá; Gonçalves, Romélia PinheiroSickle cell anemia (SCA) is a recessively inherited disease characterized by chronic hemolytic anemia, chronic inflammation, and acute episodes of hemolysis. Hydroxyurea (HU) is widely used to increase the levels of fetal hemoglobin (HbF). The objective of this study was to standardize and validate a method for the quantification of HU in human plasma by using ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)...
