目的 分析河源市学龄前儿童发生小细胞低色素性贫血的病因。方法 对我院进行健康体检小细胞低色素性贫血儿童287例进行血常规、血清铁蛋白及地中海贫血基因检测。结果 在所研究的287 例小细胞低色素性贫血儿童病例中,分别检出 α地中海贫血 127例,β地中海贫血 48例,α/β复合地中海贫血2例;铁缺乏 83例 (合并地中海贫血20例, 缺铁性贫血45例),不明原因贫血47例。地中海贫血检出率为61.67%,铁缺乏检出率为21.95% 。结论 地中海贫血是河源市学龄前儿童发生小细胞低色素性贫血最主要的原因,其次是铁缺乏,各年龄段儿童以轻度贫血为主,6月~1岁,1~3岁为铁缺乏高发年龄。α地中海贫血基因型以--^SEA/αα最常见,β地中海贫血以βIVS-II-654/β^N最常见,小细胞低色素症在静止型最常见。

Objective To analyze the causes of microcytic hypochromic anemia in preschool children in Heyuan City. Methods A total of 287 cases with microcytic hypochromic anemia were selected in our hospital. The indexes of hematology, serum ferritin were detected and genetic testing for thalassemia was performed. Results Through genetic analysis, 127 of 287 cases of microcytic hypochromic anemia were confirmed with α-thalassaemia,48 cases with β-thalassaemia,2 cases with compound α/β-thalassaemia and 83 cases with iron deficiency (20 thalassemia cases and 45 iron deficiency anemia cases). Thalassaemia detection rate was 61.67%, iron deficiency detection rate was 21.95%. Conclusion Thalassaemia was the main reason of microcytic hypochromic anemia in preschool children in Heyuan City, followed by iron deficiency. The mild anemia was the main type among all age groups, children aged 0.5-3 had higher iron deficiency rate. The main type of α-thalassaemia was --^SEA/αα, the main type of β-thalassaemia was βIVS-II-654/β^N and the main type of microcytic hypochromic was static type.
