摘 要:The incidence of haemoglobinopathy is high in China,especially south of the Yangtze ***,the exact status of haemoglobinopathy in Sichuan is *** carry out a detailed research of haemoglobinopathy in individuals living in Sichuan,13,298 subjects without clinical symptoms who were living in Sichuan Province,with an age distribution of 5e73 years,were included in this *** March 2014 and July 2017,these subjects received examinations at the Medical Lab of Chengdu Women’s&Children’s Central *** corpuscular volume(MCV)T),28(AG),and IVS-Ⅱ-654(CT).The main abnormal haemoglobin genotype(HbE)and thalassaemia genotype(–^(SEA),CD41-42(-TTCT))were consistent with those in other regions of China,but the carrier rate of β-thalassaemia in Sichuan was higher than that of α-thalassaemia.
