Hereditary hemochromatosis: awareness and genetic testing acceptability in Western Romania.

Genetic testing and molecular biomarkers - 1 Dec 2010

Neghina Adriana Maria, Anghel Andrei

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: a public health strategy to promote early diagnosis of hemochromatosis gene (HFE)-related hemochromatosis (HFE-HH) largely depends on people's acceptance of available screening tests. The present study aimed at evaluating patient awareness of HFE-HH and their acceptance of DNA testing in western Romania. RESULTS: a total of 221 participants were randomly recruited from the ambulatory unit of the Emergency...
