Abstract excerpt
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common inherited enzymopathy worldwide. Current neonatal screening, based on enzymatic assays, often fails to identify heterozygous females due to X-chromosome inactivation. This study aimed to characterize by genotype, enzymatic activity and haematological parameters infants carrying pathogenic G6PD variants and to explore genotype-phenotype...
