Prevalence of the Main Human Genetic Variants Related to Resistance to Malaria in a Population of the Colombian Pacific Coast

2023-12-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> . Malaria is an endemic disease present in many areas of Colombia. In the city of Buenaventura (Colombian Pacific), there is a high incidence of malaria cases, with a high number of deaths due to this disease. Some genetic variants provide protection against malaria, as is the case for individuals heterozygous for some haemoglobin variants (HbS, HbC, and β-thalassemias), individuals homozygou...
