The relationship between the presence of fragmented QRS and iron overload determined by magnetic resonance imaging T2* in patients with beta-thalassemia major

Background: Patients with beta-thalassemia major are categorized as high risk for cardiovascular complications due to myocardial iron overload that leads to reduce both systolic and diastolic function as well as cardiac arrhythmias. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between the pres...
