Low prevalence of hereditary hemochromatosis in multiethnic populations in Northern Norway.

Scandinavian journal of gastroenterology - 1 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Hereditary hemochromatosis has an autosomal recessive inheritance. The C282Y homozygosity is the most common genetic mutation in persons of Northern European descent. A screen of two multiethnic populations in Northern Norway was performed to investigate whether the prevalence of hereditary hemochromatosis was consistent with previous results in Northern Europe. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Participants in...
