Impact of age‐dependent red blood cell parameters on α‐globin gene genotyping in children
Abstract When screening for α‐thalassemia in children, adult cut‐offs for mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) are generally applied to guide genetic evaluation. However, the normal ranges for MCV and MCH are lower in children than in adults, so we hypothesized that us...
