Massive haematuria associated with sickle-cell trait.

Abnormal Haemoglobins in Iran-Rahbar et al.MiDELtUR 677 cause a considerable difference in electrophoretic mobility when compared with haemoglobin A (Figs. 6 and7).Summary In two surveys, each of 100 non-anaemic patients in Shiraz, Iran, two examples of haemoglobin D Punjab were found.In a third survey of 400 anaemic patients in Teheran, thalassaemia, haemoglobin S, haemoglobin D, and haemoglobin C were found.In addition, a new haemoglobin, J Iran, a.j82 77 His->Asp, was discovered.One of us (S.R.) is indebted to Drs. H. Mirdamadi, Mefidi, and Roberts for their advice and co-operation.We should like to thank Mr. D. Irvine, who prepared the fingerprints of the haemoglobin D samples found in the Shiraz Survey.
