It is currently clear that mutations in genes such as ANK1, SPTB, SPTA1, SLC4A1, EPB4.2 can cause the loss of their corresponding encoded proteins. However, there is a lack of reports in China on the association analysis between HS genotypes and clinical phenotypes, aiming to reveal whether there are differences in the corresponding clinical phenotypes of the same disease when genotypes are different.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>35 children with HS who underwent complete whole exome gene sequencing in the Department of Pediatric Hematology at West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University from February 2014 to February 2024.
