title: [Detection of microcythemia in a school population in Milan: survey of microcythemic subjects 8 years after the diagnosis was made].
abstract: In the Milan School population the screening for microcythemy is performed from 1963. It was conducted an investigation among the subjects who were recognized microcythemics eight years ago and who now are eighteen years old. Almost all of them are conscious about their situation and about half of them has a scrupulous notion about a cross-breeding with a high risk. Are also offered the results of the research on the personal behaviour in front of the direct prevention of the mediterranean anemia by prenatal diagnosis.
