Objectives: Our study evaluated the association of the polymorphism rs724016 in the gene, previously associated with height in other populations, with predictors of height, clinical outcomes, and laboratory parameters in sickle cell anemia (SCA).
Methods: Cross-sectional study with individuals with SCA and aged between 3 and 20 years. Clinical, laboratory, molecular, and bone age (BA) data were evaluated.

Introduction: The Hb Deer Lodge (β2 His>Arg; HBB:c.8A>G) is a structural hemoglobin variant described in some populations around the world, characterized by increased oxygen affinity, but does not confer clinical symptoms to its carriers. The coinheritance of the Hb Deer Lodge with the most common hemoglobin variant, Hb S, has been reported only once; however, functional data were not described.

It presents a diagnostic challenge as it imitates sickle Hb (Hb S) in standard electrophoresis and high-performance liquid chromatography assays requiring DNA analysis to confirm diagnosis. Both have point mutations in codon 6, exon 1 in the β-globin () gene with different pathogenicities.
