Table 3 Epo level and Hb F content in a group of evident beta thal int patients showing a similar degree of anemia and divided for Hb F < or > 40%.
From: Factors regulating Hb F synthesis in thalassemic diseases
Patients' group | N. cases | Hb F and EPO mean levels | |
|---|---|---|---|
Evident beta thal int with Hb ≤ 9 g/dl | 32 | HbF = 13.6% EPO = 92.9 mU/l (25 cases) | Hb F = 59.9% EPO = 118.8 mU/l (7 cases) |
