Why do you need to conduct G6PD♦≠ genetic testing?

   Glucose-6-phosph∞↑<ate dehydrogenase (G6PD) de↕♣✔¶ficiency is a genetic dis♣€∏∑ease caused by red blood cell ✔↔↔ destruction and hemolysis. Patients ofte↕∞>n get sick due to eating broad beaπ>ns, so it is also commonly knowΩβαn as "broad bean disease". Neonatal jaun≠←•dice, broad bean disease, drug-indu☆®≥±ced hemolysis, infectious hemolysis, non-spherica☆‌'l cell hemolytic anemia and other clinical typesαπ. Severe acute hemolytic anemia in¥αduced by G6PD deficiency is caused by excessive λ"red blood cell destructש→✔ion. If not treated in time, it can cause‌←α liver, kidney, or heart♥≤§® failure, or even dea​≈th.

  "Expert Consensus for Sc§☆reening, Diagnosis an€ε↓♣d Treatment of Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrπ‌©¥ogenase Deficiency in Newborns ↓λ" mentioned that G6PD deficien∞✘↔cy is the same as normal people wh←✔en there is no incentive∞§£ to not develop disease, bu↕φ✔$t if the disease also causes subseqγ± •uent diseases It may causeδα serious consequences, so the key tφ o prevention and treatm∏<₹¥ent of the disease is prλπevention. The common↔☆ G6PD enzyme activity test cannot be determin↔α€ed for female heterozygotes, a₩εnd genetic diagnosis is≈‍™φ a reliable method of dia≠β♣gnosis. G6PD deficienc£↔÷y has become one of the newborn scr¥§eening projects, especially cases that have appe©≤ared in the family, and must£> be paid attention to. Newborns should be sc≈☆α✘reened as soon as possible.
