Adekile Adekunle, Sukumaran Jalaja, Thomas Diana, D'Souza Thomas, Haider Mohammad

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The frequency of the alpha thalassemia trait is approximately 40% in the Kuwaiti population, but there has been no comprehensive study of the prevalent alleles. This is a report of patients who were referred for molecular diagnosis over a 20-year period. METHODS: This is a retrospective study of the α-globin genotypes obtained in the Hemoglobin Research Laboratory of the Department of Pediatrics,...
