Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency Detection in a Portuguese Population.

COPD - 1 Feb 2018

Meira Leonor, Boaventura Rita, Seixas Susana, Sucena Maria

Abstract excerpt

Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is an autosomal co-dominant disease characterised by low serum levels of this molecule. Its epidemiology remains unknown in many countries, mainly due to its underdiagnosed state and lack of patients' registries. We aim to evaluate and characterise a sample of Portuguese individuals tested for AATD, between 2006 and 2015, based on a retrospective analysis from the database of...
