“…11,19,37,38 The cases of Adana alpha 2 mutations that combined with a single alpha 2 nondeletional mutation in general gave more severe HbH-like presentations ( 2 CS [Constant Spring], 2 Paksé , 2 IVS-II-142 , 2 IVS-I-1 , 2 codon24 , 2 codon22 , and rSNP 149709T > C). 15,17,22,35,36,39,40 The incidence of hydrops fetalis was generally associated with genotype and not ethnicity. Mild differences in clinical severity between patients of identical genotype were likely due to various unknown genetic factors implicated in HbH disease that require further study.…”
