Abstract
Frequencies of the thalassaemias in Cyprus were examined by a survey of hospital inpatients and haematological investigations of adult and newborn population samples. The data indicate that 15% of the Greek and Turkish Cypriots are carriers of beta-thalassaemia genes, while 10% of the population carry alpha-thalassaemia genes. These are the highest frequencies of thalassaemia genes found today in any Caucasian population.
摘要
通过对医院住院患者的调查以及对成人和新生儿群体样本的血液学研究，对塞浦路斯地中海贫血的发病率进行了检测。数据表明，15%的希腊族和土耳其族塞浦路斯人是β地中海贫血基因的携带者，而10%的人口携带α地中海贫血基因。这些是目前在任何高加索人群中发现的地中海贫血基因的最高频率。
