Brief Summary
The production of Hb F after birth is an important factor in modifying the clinical severity of beta thalassemia because an increased gamma-globin level will bind the additional a-globin and form Hb F. The objective of this project is to evaluate the association of Hb F level with phenotypic diversity of patients with beta thalassemia.
