Thiol Disulfide Homeostasis and Ischemia-modified Albumin Level in Children With Beta-Thalassemia

This study aimed to investigate the relationship of thiol levels, SH/SS homeostasis, and ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) in patients with β-thal. Materials and Methods: A hundred transfusion-dependent β-thal patients and 41 healthy controls were included in the study. Results: Native thiol, total thiol, disulfide, catalase, and IMA levels were significantly higher in the β-thal group compared with the control group (P
