Analysis demonstrates how varying AAT thresholds influences mutation detection, suggesting tailored approaches for screening.
Serum AAT threshold selection substantially affects mutation detection. Lower thresholds prioritise severe genotypes, while higher thresholds capture more carriers, facilitating cascade screening but increasing workload. Thresholds should be tailored to the clinical and public health aims of screening.
