Incidence Trends of Inherited Anemias at the Global, Regional, and National Levels Over Three Decades.

ABSTRACT: Inherited anemia continues to pose a significant public health concern on a global scale, owing to its extensive geographical prevalence, substantial patient population, and profound ramifications.
