Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Assess the quality of life impact of receiving indeterminate test results for hemochromatosis, a disorder involving HFE genetic mutations and/or elevated serum transferrin saturation and ferritin. METHODS: The study sample was from the Hemochromatosis and Iron Overload Screening Study, a large observational study of hemochromatosis among primary care patients in the US and Canada using HFE genotype and...
