Table 2. Reference values of the G6PD enzymatic activity profile for the study population, Pailin, Cambodia, 2013.

Reference values Female Male Adjusted male*
Number of cases 487 451 392
Mean (95% CI) UI/g Hb 11.8 (11.4–12.2) 11.2 (10.7–11.7) 12.8 (12.4–13.1)
SD 4.4 5.1 3.3
Median (95% CI) UI/g Hb 11.9 11.7 12.0
IQR 9.7–14.0 10.2–13.4 10.6–13.6
Range 0.5–45.9 0.3–42.5 7.4–42.5

* Adjusted median (100% G6PD activity): an adjusted median value is calculated for which males with severe G6PD deficiency (activity less than 10% normal) have been excluded. This is accomplished by:1. Exclusion of all males with G6PD activity equal to or less than 10% of the male median; 2. Determination of a new median G6PD activity [27].
