α-Thalassemia in Bantu Population from Congo-Brazzaville: Its Interaction with Sickle Cell Anemia

24 Nov 1999

Abstract excerpt

Deletional alpha(+)-thalassemia (-alpha(3.7)) was investigated in four groups of unrelated individuals from the Bantu population (newborns, normal adults, sickle cells trait carriers, sickle cell anemia patients) of Brazzaville, Congo. The frequency of the (-alpha(3.7)) chromosome was similar between newborns (f = 0.40) and adult subjects (f = 0.36), and between sicklers and nonsickler subjects. The frequency of...
