Key information

About this study

Numerical chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, Edwards syndrome, and Patau syndrome are associated with various hematological abnormalities. These may include anemia, macrocytosis, thrombocytopenia, leukocyte abnormalities, and increased risk of hematological malignancies, particularly in Down syndrome.

This cross-sectional study will include children aged 28 days to 18 years with confirmed numerical chromosomal disorders. Complete blood count and peripheral blood smear examination will be performed to evaluate the hematological profile and determine the frequency and pattern of abnormalities.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • - Age from 28 days to 18 years
  • Confirmed numerical chromosomal disorder (Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, Edwards syndrome, or Patau syndrome) by karyotype
  • Written informed consent from parents or legal guardians

Exclusion criteria

  • - Age below 28 days
  • Patients receiving chemotherapy
  • Refusal of parents or legal guardians to participate

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Frequency of hematological abnormalities

    Time frame: Baseline

    Proportion of children with numerical chromosomal disorders who have one or more hematological abnormalities (anemia, macrocytosis, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, leukocytosis, or abnormal peripheral blood smear findings), expressed as percentage.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Pattern of hematological abnormalities

    Time frame: Baseline

    Distribution and pattern of specific hematological abnormalities (anemia, macrocytosis, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, etc.) among the studied children.

  2. Hematological profile according to syndrome type

    Time frame: Baseline

    Comparison of hematological parameters (hemoglobin, MCV, platelet count, white blood cell count) among different numerical chromosomal disorders (Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and others).

  3. Association with clinical features

    Time frame: Baseline

    Association between hematological abnormalities and clinical phenotypes (recurrent infections, bleeding manifestations, hepatosplenomegaly).
