A anemia falciforme, expressão clínica dos homozigotos do gene da hemoglobina S, é a doença hereditária mais freqüente no Brasil. Apesar disso, metodologia genético-epidemiológica raramente usada nos estudos brasileiros sobre essa alteração. No presente estudo foram analisados, por meio de um software específico, os dados 817 heterozigotos HbS (513 homens e 304 mulheres), não consangüíneos, com idades entre 18 65 anos, detectados voluntariamente na cidade Campinas, SP, Sudeste constituição...
