Genetic epidemiology of alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency in southern Europe: France, Italy, Portugal and Spain.

Clinical genetics - 1 Jun 2003

de Serres F J, Blanco I, Fernández-Bustillo E

Abstract excerpt

Alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AAT deficiency) is one of the most common serious hereditary disorders in the world because it affects all major racial subgroups worldwide and there are at least 120.5 million carriers and deficient subjects worldwide. This genetic disease is related to a high risk for development of jaundice in infants, liver disease in children and adults, and pulmonary emphysema in adults....
