Elevated Hemoglobin A2: A Molecular Revisited, and Implications to β‐Thalassemia Screening

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
In Thailand, the Hb A2 cut‐off value for β‐thalassemia carrier has been changed from 4.0% to 3.6% since 2015. We examined the molecular basis of β‐thalassemia in a large cohort of Thai subjects with this change. The molecular basis of β‐thalassemia was updated, and a change in the Hb A2 cut‐off can alter this spectrum.
