Premawardhena, A.; Fisher, C.A.; Olivieri, N.F.; de Silva, S.; Arambepola, M.; Perera, W.; O Donnell, A.; Peto, T.E.; Viprakasit, V.; Merson, L.; Muraca, G.; Weatherall, D.J. (Lancet Publishing Group, 2005)

Haemoglobin E beta thalassaemia is the commonest form of severe thalassaemia in many Asian countries, but little is known about its natural history, the reasons for clinical diversity, or its management. We studied 109 Sri ...
A Novel molecular basis for beta thalassemia intermedia poses new questions about its pathophysiology

Premawardhena, A.; Fisher, C.A.; Olivieri, N.F.; de Silva, S.; Sloane-Stanley, J.; Wood, W.G.; Weatherall, D.J. (American Society of Hematology, 2005)

During a study of the molecular basis for severe forms of beta thalassemia in Sri Lanka, 2 patients were found to be heterozygous for beta thalassemia mutations. Further analysis revealed that one of them has a previously ...
