This is a 2020 article giving details of Chinese study to see if their patients should have the same IGHV gene identity cutoff to suggest Mutation as western patients.

The 98% gene identity and anything below that % suggests mutated.

cllady,

Very interesting read. Much more information than my shrinking bean can absorb in one setting though. I was pleased when reading the last two paragraphs and the conclusion, as it was summarized well enough that I had enough memory left to do the data dump.

I would recommend to those who have had more than three cups of coffee to go straight to the last two paragraphs, and then come back to read the rest after the caffeine wears off.

Thanks for the jump start!
