MDS and minorities
I have been trying to find information on MDS and minorities - incidence, genetically-driven treatment issues, etc. I am African American and dealing the the myriad barriers to finding a suitable match for a BMT. Is anyone aware of any research on bone marrow failure diseases within specific ethnic groups?
