1 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Sickle cell-β thalassemia (HbS-β thalassemia) is a sickling disorder of varying severity, which results from compound heterozygosity for sickle cell trait and β thalassemia trait. The present study was undertaken to determine the genetic factors responsible for the clinical variability of HbS-β thalassemia patients from western India. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-one HbS-β thalassemia cases with...
