Abstract:
Objective To study the anemia status and genotype of thalassemia in preschool children in Shenzhen. Methods 658 preschool with anemia hospitalized in Shenzhen Longgang Maternal and Child Health Hospital from October 2012 to September 2015 were screened by complete blood analysis . The most common mutations of thalassemia genotype (17 β thalassemia genotype mutation,3 α thalassemia genotype mutation and 3α thalassemia genotype absence change) in Chinese population were detected. Results All cases have microcytic hypochromic anemia. 426 cases were identified to be thalassemia (64.7%). 23 genotypes and 13 gene mutation type were detected. The most common genotype type were SEA/αα(46%),β654/βN(15%),β41?42/βN(12.7%). And the most common allele gene mutation type were SEA (49.1%),IVS?Ⅱ?654( C→T)(14.4%),CD41?42(?TTCT)(12.4%) re?spectively. MCV and MCH of thalassemia children was significantly lower than that of children diagnosed as without thalassemia. The differences of RBC,Hb,MCV,MCH,MCHC,RBC?SD between the two groups were statistical?ly significant. Conclusion The proportion of thalassemia among preschool anemia children in Shenzhen area was high,and it is necessary to strengthen the local thalassemia prevention and decrease anemia effect on preschool children′s health.
