Abstract:
Objective To estimate the prevalence of Glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase(G6PD) deficiency in Zhongshan area . Methods The activity of G6PD in red blood cells was determined by using ultra‐violet rate method for neonates ,couples of child‐bearing age and suspected patients who had clinical symptoms in Zhongshan area from 2012 to 2013 .Results The total detection rate of G6PD deficiency was 4 .37% (1 030/23 595);in male the detection rate was 9 .42% (513/5 447);in female the detection rate was 2 .85% (517/18 148) .Conclusion The incidence of G6PD deficiency were high in Zhongshan area .Therefore ,more attention should be paid to the screening of the disease in neonates and couples of childbearing age so as to reduce the incidence of G6PD defi‐ciency and prevent the complications caused by the disease .
