populationSaudi Arabia, Eastern Province“Prevalence and Diversity of Haplotypes of Sickle Cell Disease in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia. In the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, the Arab-Indian (AI) is most common. In 778 patients with sickle cell disease from the Eastern Province, a haplotype was assigned to 90.9% of all samples; 9.1% were classified as compound heterozygotes for the AI and an atypical haplotype. The presence of the SEN and CAM haplotypes was unexpected due to the apparent homogeneity of the population of the Eastern Province.”0.95saudi_context_rules_v1
