Global epidemiology of sickle haemoglobin in neonates: a contemporary geostatistical model-based map and population estimates.
BACKGROUND: Reliable estimates of populations affected by diseases are necessary to guide efficient allocation of public health resources. Sickle haemoglobin (HbS) is the most common and clinically significant haemoglobin structural variant, but no contemporary estimates exist of the global populati...
