Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Rare and novel variants of HBA1/2 and HBB genes resulting in thalassemia and hemoglobin (Hb) variants have been increasingly identified. Our goal was to identify two rare Hb variants in Chinese population using third-generation sequencing (TGS) technology. METHODS: Enrolled in this study were two Chinese families from Fujian Province. Hematological screening was conducted using routine blood analysis...
