Genotypes and clinical characteristics of α-thalassemia of neonates in Qingyuan City, Guangdong
To analyze the distribution of genotypes and clinical characteristics of α-thalassemia among the neonates in Qingyuan city
Guangdong.
Methods
2
The genotypes and clinical phenotypes of α-thalassemia were characterized in 5 063 neonates who were suspected with thalassemia during 2014 to 2015 in Qingyuan city
Guangdong. α-Globin gene deletion (--

) and mutation (α

α) were detected in DNA samples from peripheral blood cells of the neonates using gap single polymerase chain reaction (GSPCR) and PCR-reverse dot blotting (PCR-RDB)
respectively.
Results
2
α-Thalassemia was identified in 1 735 neonates (34.27%) out of 5 063 neonates. The frequency alteration was α-globin gene deletion
the most common genotype was--
SEA
/αα (1 265 cases
72.91%)
followed by the right deletion
heterozygous-α
3.7
/αα (233 cases
13.43%) and the left deletion heterozygous-α
4.2
/αα (97 cases
5.59%). Two cases of homozygote (-α

including αα

genotype. Among 1 735 cases of α-thalassemia
409 cases belonged to silent type without hematological alteration
and 1 272 cases belonged to slight type with mild small cell hypochromic anemia. Hb H disease was identified in 54 cases
and the patients showed moderate or severe anemia
with or without hepatosplenomegaly and jau
ndice.
Conclusion
2
The most common genotype of α-thalassemia among the populations in Qingyuan is heterozygous--
SEA
/αα. There are more patients with mild α-thalassemia
resulting in high risk of birthing the neonates with Hb H disease or severe α-thalassemia.
