Females of HbAS genotype have reduced concentration of the malaria protective deoxyhemoglobin S than males
The quantity of the intra-erythrocytic deoxyhemoglobin S (Hb S) affects the level of protection against malaria and also the sickling phenomenon. This study reports on significantly lower concentration of Hb S in females than males. Data came from 350 children, aged 12–47 months who participated in...
