    This study examined the importance of early detection of hemoglobinopathies in pediatric patients in developing countries. The researchers conducted a retrospective study analyzing 152 cases of hemoglobinopathies diagnosed by capillary electrophoresis at a hospital in Cali, Colombia. They found that the most common hemoglobinopathies were sickle cell trait (14.5%), sickle cell disease (11.8%), and hemoglobin SC disease (9.2%). The study highlights the value of early screening for hemoglobinopathies in pediatric populations in developing world settings.
