Analysis of Bantu haplotype effect and HU use on SCA phenotypic expression modulators. A) Lipid peroxidation showed its highest mean value in Group I compared to the others groups. B) Higher Hb F levels in patients of Group II compared to group with the same molecular profile not treated (Group I) and to the others evaluated groups. *Indicates statistical difference (ANOVA followed by Fisher’s post hoc test). Group I: Bantu (−HU), Group II: Bantu (+ HU), Group III: any haplotype except Bantu (−HU), Group IV: any haplotype except Bantu (+ HU).
