    Author: Jeng MR, Vichinsky E.
    Journal: Hematol Oncol Clin North Am; 2004 Dec; 18(6):1405-22, x. PubMed ID: 15511622.
    Abstract:
    An increasing number of Southeast Asian immigrants have come to North America. Physicians who care for this population should be aware of the high prevalence of hematologic disorders and develop an approach to their diagnosis and management. Malaria and the hematologic sequelae, glucose-6-phophate dehydrogenase deficiency, the thalassemia syndromes, Southeast Asian ovalocytosis, visceral leishmaniasis, HIV infection, and iron-deficiency anemia, all of which may pertain to these patients, are reviewed in this article.
