alpha-thalassemia in the United Arab Emirates.

Acta haematologica - 1 Jan 1998

El-Kalla S, Baysal E

Abstract excerpt

A neonatal screening survey of alpha-thalassemia (alpha-thal) among the United Arab Emirates (UAE) nationals was conducted on 418 consecutive cord blood samples. Our findings demonstrate that 49% of the cases studied were found with an alpha-globin gene defect. The gene frequency of the -alpha3.7 was 0.2847 and that of the -alpha4.2 was 0.0072. Four nondeletional alpha-thal mutations were found; alphaPA-1,...
