Global burden, distribution and prevention of β-thalassemias and hemoglobin E disorders.

Expert review of hematology - 1 Feb 2010

Colah Roshan, Gorakshakar Ajit, Nadkarni Anita

Abstract excerpt

The β-thalassemias, including the hemoglobin E disorders, are not only common in the Mediterranean region, South-East Asia, the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East but have now become a global problem, spreading to much of Europe, the Americas and Australia owing to migration of people from these regions. Approximately 1.5% of the global population are heterozygotes or carriers of the β-thalassemias. While...
