Abstract: | Previous studies on the influence of α-thalassemia (α-thal) on dense cell formation were done mostly in adult SS patients without much concern to discriminate the independent effect of age, Hb F levels, and α-thal. In this report we studied 15 SS patients with α-thal-2 heterozygosity (α-/αα) and 21 non-thalassemic (αα/αα) SS patients of age 2-13. |
