Polymorphic Distribution of Human Homeostatic Iron Regulator Gene H63D rs1799945 and Clinico‐Hematological Parameters of Sickle Cell Anemia Patients: A Case‐Control Study in Northern Ghana

ABSTRACT Background and Aim The study assessed the polymorphic distribution of H63D rs1799945 of HFE gene and clinico‐hematological parameters of SCA patients. Methods Sixty sickle cell anemia (SCA) patients and 30 healthy controls without sickle cell disease between the ages of 2–38 years were sele...
