Lack of mortality in 22 children with sickle cell anemia and severe malarial anemia [PDF]

, 2017
Retrospective studies suggest that there is high mortality in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) and severe malaria. We assessed mortality in Ugandan children with severe malarial anemia (SMA, n = 232) or cerebral malaria (CM, n = 267) by sickle cell

Prevalence of Haemoglobine s in Araraquara-SP Population.

Revista Brasileira Multidisciplinar - ReBraM /Brazilian Multidisciplinay Journal, 2015
The Sickle Cell Anemia is a genetic hemoglobionopathy, characterized by an alteration in the hemoglobin molecule struture (HbA1), called hemoglobin S (HbS), which causes a distortion in the erythocytes structure, changing from spherical shape to sickle ...

Studies on the Hemoglobin of Cooley's Anemia and Cooley's Trait [PDF]

, 1952
The diseases sickle cell anemia and Cooley's anemia (also known as thalassemia or Mediterranean anemia) have associated with them "minor" or "trait" forms of the disease in which the symptomatology is minimal, and the abnormalities in the red cells are ...

Drugs for preventing red blood cell dehydration in people with sickle cell disease. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease is an inherited disorder of hemoglobin, resulting in abnormal red blood cells. These are rigid and may block blood vessels leading to acute painful crises and other complications.

Discovery of a Novel DNMT1 Inhibitor with Improved Efficacy in Treating β‐Thalassemia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Context of Research: β‐thalassemia affects millions worldwide. DNMT inhibitors are effective HbF‐inducers that benefit patients with β‐thalassemia. Existing DNMT inhibitors are not approved for β‐thalassemia treatment due to dose‐limiting toxicity.What We Find: DMT207 traps DNMT1 into helix‐kinked inactive conformation and enhances its interaction with

Genetic variants in the G gamma-globin promoter modulate fetal hemoglobin expression in the Colombian population [PDF]

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020
Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is a determining factor for the development of sickle cell anemia. High HbF levels lower the intensity of symptoms of this disease. HbF levels can vary in patients with sickle cell anemia and individuals without the disease.

Hematological and hemorheological determinants of the six-minute walk test performance in children with sickle cell anemia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The six-minute walk test is a well-established submaximal exercise reflecting the functional status and the clinical severity of sickle cell patients. The aim of the present cross-sectional study was to investigate the biological determinants of the six ...
