Optimal mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) cut-off value for differentiating alpha plus and alpha zero thalassaemia in thalassaemia screening

Introduction: The aim of thalassaemia screening is to reduce thalassaemia syndromes with significant clinical implication. Therefore, detection of α0 thalassaemia with two genes deletion is clinically more important than α+ thalassaemia with one gene deletion. The aim of this study is to determine t...
