| Abstract | ||||
| Background:Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder of the blood cells It is described as a low level of hemoglobin and a decrease in the number of red blood cells from the normal range. Objective: This study amied to evaluate the levels and find the correlation coefficient between erythroferrone and liver enzymes in the beta thalassemia patients. Patients and methods: In this study, samples were taken from patients with beta-thalassemia (60 samples) and 30 samples from healthy people. Results: The current study's findings demonstrated that both erythroferon and liver enzymes were highly elevated in patients with thalassemia (P>0.05), and they were also strongly associated. Conclusions: This study found association between increased levels of erythroferon and severe anemia also association between increased levels of liver enzymes and severe accumulation of iron. | ||||
