Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterized by less oxygen-carrying haemoglobin and fewer red blood cells. It is caused by genetic mutations that affect haemoglobin synthesis. Common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, and pale skin. Treatment involves frequent blood transfusions, chelation therapy to remove excess iron, and possibly stem cell transplants. The project describes the history, signs, and treatment of thalassemia with a case study example. It aims to increase understanding of this genetic blood disorder.

This one is my Physics Investigatory Project done on the topic 'Physics Principle In Medicine'. You and I both of us know, without physics advancement in biology especially in the medical field is impossible. So, in this project we are gonna investigate through the various principles of physics which are used in the medical field ( like X ray machines, CT scanners, MRI and other advancements like SPECTS scan).
Both for class 11th & 12th.
Especially for class 12th.

A group of disorders that cause red blood cells to become misshapen and break down.
With sickle cell disease, an inherited group of disorders, red blood cells contort into a sickle shape. The cells die early, leaving a shortage of healthy red blood cells (sickle cell anaemia) and can block blood flow causing pain (sickle cell crisis).
Infections, pain and fatigue are symptoms of sickle cell disease.
Treatments include medication, blood transfusions and rarely a bone-marrow transplant

Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis A Case Reportijtsrd
"Hypokalemic periodic paralysis HPP is a medical emergency with prevalence of 1 in 100,000 . Rapid management is very important since, very low potassium levels can lead to cardiac complications . In this case, a twenty four year old female without a similar history in the family, having hypokalemia periodic paralysis attack is presented. This case report study has been presented for the consideration of the rare HPP in patients presenting with sudden muscle weakness. Blessy Rachal Boban | Cillamol K.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

It is an inherited disease which is mainly caused due to the
abnormal haemoglobin synthesis. It is transferred by one of the
parents who is a carrier of this disease due to either deletion of
particular key gene fragments or a genetic mutation.

7. Summary
Subtitle lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
adipiscing elit.
● Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder characterised by less
oxygen-carrying protein (haemoglobin) and fewer red blood cells in
the body than normal.

8. HISTORY
● Alpha Thalassemia Minor and Beta Thalassemia Minor, also known
as alpha thalassemia trait or beta thalassemia trait, are common
conditions in many demographics.
● Beta Thalassemia Major was first described in the medical literature in
1925 by an American physician named Thomas Cooley. And hence the
name Beta thalassemia major is also known as Cooley's anemia.
● Alpha Thalassemias occur most often in people from Southeast Asia, the
Middle East, China, and in those of African descent.
● Beta Thalassemias occur most often in people of Mediterranean origin.
To a lesser extent, Chinese, other Asians, and African Americans can be
affected.
● In 1938 Mukerjee published “the first recorded case of thalassemia on
east side of Suez”. The case was observed by Dr M. Bose of the Campbell
Medical School & Hospital, Calcutta (now Kolkata) in a Hindu boy aged 30
months.
● Whiple and Bradford first proposed the name Thalassemia.

12. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
Thalassemia signs and
symptoms can include:
● Fatigue
● Weakness
● Pale or yellowish skin
● Facial bone deformities
● Slow growth
● Abdominal swelling
● Dark urine
● Enlarged spleen 12

13. Prevalence
• The alpha thalassemia is prevalent in
southeast Asia,Malaysia and southern china.
• The beta thalassemia are seen primarily in the area
surrounding Mediterranean sea, Africa and Asia.
• Carrier frequency of thalassemia in India is about 3 %
and estimated frequency of thalassemia at birth is
1:2700.
• In India β thalassemia is frequent and α thalassemia is
rare.
• β thalassemia is more common in certain communities
such as Sindhis, Punjabis, Bengalis, Gujratis, Parsis,
Bhansalis , Jain and Lohanas.
•Thalassemia is prevalent in those parts of world where malaria has been common.

TREATMENT
● Frequent blood transfusions : More severe forms of
thalassemia often require frequent blood
transfusions, possibly every few weeks.
● Chelation therapy : This is treatment to remove
excess iron from your blood.
● Stem cell transplant : Also called a bone marrow
transplant, a stem cell transplant might be an
option in some cases. For children with
severe thalassemia, it can eliminate the need
for lifelong blood transfusions and drugs to
control iron overload.
● Gene Therapy : Bluebird Bio has been granted the
go-ahead to market its gene therapy for the
blood disorder β-thalassemia. Zynteglo
gained conditional market approval from the
European Commission to treat transfusion-
dependent β-thalassemia in patients 12 years 14
15. 15
● A 36-year-old man who had been diagnosed with β-thalassaemia intermedia 20 years
ago was admitted to the internal medicine department due to progressive exercise
dyspnoea, orthopnoea and oedema in the lower extremity.
● In his history, it was found that he underwent splenectomy due to hypersplenism
6 years ago and was not regularly attending control visits.Blood pressure was found
to be 100/70 mm Hg. He had a regular pulse with a rate of 110 bpm.
● There was venous distention of the neck. It was found that the breathing sound was
weaker at the basal region with fine crackles, as the finding of weaker breathing
sounds was more prominent on the left side.
● On cardiovascular examination, there was a grade II/III pansystolic murmur at the
lower left parasternal area. On abdominal examination, there was a surgical scar at
the left-upper quadrant and hepatomegaly that could be palpated.
CASE STUDY
17. ● Treatment- A regular transfusion programme was scheduled and chelator therapy was
initiated. A diuretic was given for symptoms of heart failure. Anticoagulant therapy was
initiated by taking systemic embolism findings into account. The patient achieved clinical
improvement and he was discharged by the recommendation of control visits.
● Currently, the patient has an uneventful course at month 6 after discharge. His functional
class was improved. A control transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography showed
a decrease in the size of thrombi in the left and right atria.
● Patients with thalassaemia primarily die due to heart failure. The main causes of heart
failure include hemosiderosis and chronic anaemia as well as chronic pulmonary
thromboembolism. In the present case, the patient's heart failure is evident from the clinical
basal creps due to diastolic dysfunction. It is known that pulmonary thromboembolism and
hypertension are more frequently observed in patients with thalassaemia, particularly in
those with thalassaemia intermedia.Haemolysis, the resultant impairment in arginine
metabolism and endothelial dysfunction is reported to be the most important causes of
pulmonary hypertension. 17
