Abstract

Summary

Despite the significant improvements in the management of thalassemia, there are growing concerns regarding their long-term complications. We showed that low bone mass is one of the most prevalent complications among these patients. Insufficient physical activity and hypogonadism are the main possible associated factors followed by DM and insufficient sun exposure.

Purpose

Despite the significant improvements in the management of transfusion-dependent thalassemia (TDT), there are growing concerns regarding their long-term complications.

Methods

This cross-sectional study included 615 TDT patients who were registered and followed in a comprehensive thalassemia clinic in Southern Iran. We measured serum biochemical tests and bone mineral density in all patients. We recorded physical activity and sun exposure subjectively, and an endocrinologist visited and examined all the patients. A group of age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers participated in the study as the control group.

Results

The mean age of the studied population was 28.4 ± 7.7 years, and 55.8% were female. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency was 45.6% and 54.4% in TDT patients and the control group. A portion of TDT patients suffered from different endocrinopathies, which included hypogonadism (49.8%), diabetes mellitus (17.2%), hypoparathyroidism (14.6%), and hypothyroidism (6.3%). The prevalence of low bone mass in patients with TDT was 48.3 and 74.6% in the femoral and lumbar bones, respectively. Low physical activity, insufficient sun exposure, diabetes mellitus, and hypogonadism were associated with low bone mass.

Conclusion

Low bone mass is highly prevalent among TDT patients in Southern Iran. Insufficient physical activity and hypogonadism are the main possible associated factors, followed by DM and insufficient sun exposure.
