Markers of ineffective erythropoiesis in non-transfusion dependent β-thalassaemia

, 2021
Non-transfused β-thalassaemia patients develop complications related to unsuppressed ineffective erythropoiesis (IE). Serum markers of IE would be useful for risk stratification and monitoring treatment.

Identification of predictive factors for reversal of cerebral vasculopathy in an original longitudinal cohort study in newborns with sickle cell anaemia

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Cerebral macrovasculopathy (CV) is a major complication in children with sickle cell anaemia (SCA) and usually requires a long‐term transfusion programme (TP) to prevent stroke. This study aimed to identify factors predicting reversal of CV on TP in a single‐centre newborn cohort. Among 375 patients, 50 presented CV and received TP.

Parvovirus B19 infections in paediatric sickle cell disease patients: Genotype and hydroxyurea treatment influence disease severity

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary In patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), parvovirus B19 infection (B19V) leads to acute anaemia (aplastic crisis), but may also be associated with other serious complications. We retrospectively analysed clinical data from paediatric SCD patients with B19V infections between 2023 and 2025, including symptoms, laboratory parameters ...

Sickle cell anaemia with and without crises: An observational study of pregnancy outcomes

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary We assessed the pregnancy outcomes of patients with sickle cell crises. We carried out a retrospective study of 2 698 556 pregnancies in Quebec, Canada between 1989 and 2022. The primary exposure was sickle cell anaemia with crisis during or outside of pregnancy. Outcomes included severe maternal morbidity and other pregnancy complications.

Optimising Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Enhancing Myeloablation Sensitivity and Alleviating Anaemia Using Roxadustat (FG‐4592)

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The use of FG‐4592 in the process of myeloablation can promote haematopoietic cell apoptosis for more effective myeloablation, maintain the number of RBC and may create a pluripotent microenvironment suitable for donor cells, so as to enable more effective haematopoietic reconstruction of donor cells in vivo.

Gene Editing for Haemophilia—The Next Frontier

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The recently approved haemophilia A and B gene therapies via adeno‐associated virus (AAV) showed a promising therapeutic response after a single injection, but there are still limitations, including the potential loss of transgene expression and restriction in adults.
