The aim of the study was to assess the clinical utility of a third-generation sequencing (TGS) approach termed comprehensive analysis of thalassemia alleles (CATSA) for identifying both α and β thalassemia genetic carrier status. Prospective blood samples (n = 1759) with abnormal hemoglobin parameters were screened for pathogenic thalassemia variants by CATSA on the PacBio TGS platform. In 1159 individuals, a...
