Abstract excerpt

α-Thalassemia (α-thal) is assumed to be very prevalent in Bangladesh. We aimed to assess the prevalence of the disease in the country and provide a model for α-thal newborn screening in Bangladesh. We collected umbilical cord blood (UCB) samples from 413 unrelated newborns in Bangladesh. Demographic information, blood indices, osmotic fragility, serum iron (Fe), and zinc (Zn) levels were evaluated for all the...
