Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C) is a routinely measured parameter to monitor long term glycemic control in patients with diabetes mellitus. There are many potential interferents which can affect measurement of HbA1C by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Variant hemoglobins, especially, are a common source of confusion and errors in HbA1C measurement. Authors present an interesting case of Hb E variant (undiagnosed hitherto) which came to attention when the machine repeatedly failed to give Hb A1C levels. Hb E is the commonest Hb variant in North East India. In the presence of Hb E, HbA1C may not be detected by ion exchange chromatography as both hemoglobin’s co- elute together, thereby causing errors. In such cases, the clinician may resort to subcutaneous sugar monitoring as an alternate or if required, Hb A1C measurement may be done by other techniques like immunoassay technique or boronated affinity chromatography. The laboratory staff and clinicians, both, should be aware of this limitation of HbA1C estimation in patients with HbE and other Hb variants.

Abstract 1. A clinical and hematologic description is presented of a patient with sickle-cell-hemoglobin E disease in a new family. In contrast to the mild hematologic and clinical changes observed in the patients described by the author previously, the clinical and hematologic manifestations in the new patient were moderate in degree. The anemia was normocytic in type. Variation in the clinical and hematologic picture of sickle cell-hemoglobin E disease has been noted. 2. Genetic studies of two families with sickle-cell-hemoglobin E disease have been presented. According to the genetic data obtained by evaluation of the genealogies of these two families, it is strongly suggested that the genes responsible for hemoglobins S, E and A are allelomorphs or linked.

Thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E adalah suatu kondisi dengan heterozigot ganda gen pembawa thalassemia beta dan hemoglobin E. Hal ini menyebabkan kondisi dengan gambaran fenotip yang berat dibandingkan trait thalassemia beta dan trait hemoglobin E. Secara logika, nilai mean corpuscular dari thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E seharusnya memburuk. Pada penelitian ini, kami meneliti sebelas kasus dari dua keluarga dengan anggota menderita thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E.Pada keluarga-1 dua anggota dengan trait thalassemia beta memiliki nilai MCV 68 fL dan 65 fL, dan nilai MCH 21 pg dan 20 pg. Pada keluarga-2 anggota dengan trait thalassemia beta memiliki nilai MCV 60,2 fL dan MCH 18,8 pg. Anak perempuan dari kedua keluarga dengan thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E memiliki nilai mean ± SD MCV 70,8 ± 4,9 fL dan MCH 22.8 ± 2.3 pg, nilai ini signifikan lebih tinggi daripada trait thalassemia beta (p<0.05). Terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara nilai hemoglobin dan RDW antara thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E (p=0.001).Kami juga menemukan bahwa nilai MC dari keadaan post-transfusi signifikan lebih tinggi daripada pre-transfusi (p<0.001)Kami menyimpulkan bahwa nilai MC dari thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E secara persisten lebih tinggi daripada trait thalassemia beta. Peran transfusi darah pada pasien dengan thalassemia beta / hemoglobin E tampak memainkan peran dalam diskrepansi pada kasus ini.
