Current observations on sickle cell genotype in Nigeria.

East African medical journal - 1 Oct 1993

Nduka N, Owhochuku S M, Odike P

Abstract excerpt

The haematological indices and clinical manifestations of sickle cell disease (SCD) patients were investigated in a combined group of male and female Nigerians, and the results were matched against those from non-SCD individuals. Haemoglobin concentrations (Hb), red blood cell count (RBC) and packed cell volume (PCV) were significantly lower in the haemoglobin SS (HbSS) individuals than in the haemoglobin AS...
