Abstract excerpt

We have studied 91 patients with SS genotype, 44 children and 47 adults. Excluding the Cameroon and atypical haplotypes, the distribution in the children's sample exhibited 43% Benin, 38% Bantu, and 3% Senegal. In adults, the sample exhibited 46% Benin, 30% Bantu, and 9% Senegal (chi 2: 13.511, 2 df, P = 0.001). When the whole sample of 198 chromosomes (SS, SC, and S/beta thal) is considered, we find that the...
