Saliva Sample‐Based Non‐Invasive Carrier Screening for Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Hereditary Hearing Loss, and Thalassemia in 13,926 Women of Reproductive Age From South Zhejiang
Our findings confirm that SMA, HL, and thalassemia are highly prevalent in Southern Zhejiang, with some regional specificity, as compared with recent large population-based surveys in China. Further, a rapid saliva sample-based non-invasive screening method was established, and its feasibility was demonstrated.
