Prevalences of inherited red blood cell disorders in pregnant women of different ethnicities living along the Thailand-Myanmar border

2017-11-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Inherited red blood cell disorders are prevalent in populations living in malaria endemic areas; G6PD deficiency is associated with oxidant-induced haemolysis and abnormal haemoglobin variants may cause chronic anaemia. In pregnant women, microcytic anaemia caused by haemoglobinopathies mimics iron deficiency, complicating diagnosis and treatment. Anaemia during pregnancy is associated with...
