Genotype-based screening for hereditary haemochromatosis. I: Technical performance, costs and clinical relevance of a German pilot study.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 Jan 2005

Stuhrmann Manfred, Strassburg Christian, Schmidtke Jörg

Abstract excerpt

In 2001, we initiated a pilot study on DNA-based screening of hereditary haemochromatosis (HH) in Germany. A total of 5882 insurants of the German sickness fund Kaufmannische Krankenkasse-KKH requested information on this project, and 3961 of these individuals provided blood samples for testing of the HFE mutation C282Y. Of these, 3930 samples were successfully tested with two independent test methods, and the...
