Thalassemia is a research paper published in Trends in Pediatrics (2021). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 0.481. It has been cited 11 times, with 10 citing works in its 1-hop citation network. Its calibrated FAIR score is 55/100.
Defects in protein structure or synthesis of hemoglobin are called hemoglobinopathies. Thalassemia is the most common hemoglobinopathy, and it is estimated that 5% of the world population carries at least one variant allele of thalassemia. The thalassemias can be classified as alpha or beta thalassemias. Beta thalassemia may present as silent carriers with normal hematological parameters, while beta thalassemia carriers have hypochromic microcytic anemia, associated with a high HbA2. However, patients with beta thalassemia intermedia and beta thalassemia major need transfusion intermittently or regularly and they are called non-transfusion dependent thalassemias or transfusion-dependent thalassemias, respectively. This review focuses on pathophysiology, clinical, laboratory features of thalassemias along with their treatment and follow-up.

Base Score Contribution
0.373
From this paper's citation signal
Citation Network Contribution
0.108
From 5 citing papers with measurable signal
DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 77% comes from its base citations and 23% from the citation network (5 citing papers contributed measurable signal).
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
