Iron overload across the spectrum of non‐transfusion‐dependent thalassaemias: role of erythropoiesis, splenectomy and transfusions

Non‐transfusion‐dependent thalassaemias (NTDT) encompass a spectrum of anaemias rarely requiring blood transfusions. Increased iron absorption, driven by hepcidin suppression secondary to erythron expansion, initially causes intrahepatic iron overload. We examined iron metabolism biomarkers in 166 N...
