Development of a Clinical Severity Score for Indian Sickle Cell Anaemia Patients

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell anaemia (SCA) is a monogenic disorder but shows variable disease severity. We evaluated the utility of paediatric severity scores (PSS) in Indian patients and developed two modified scores: Indian Severity Score 1 (ISS1) by adding four clinical parameters to PSS, and ISS2 by excluding four biochemical measures from ISS1.

Prevalence of Low Bone Mineral Density Increases With Age in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Skeletal complications are common in sickle cell disease (SCD). We previously showed that the prevalence of low areal bone mineral density (aBMD) increased with age in a pediatric SCD cohort, even after adjusting for short stature. Data on age‐related aBMD trends in young adults is lacking.

Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound Velocity Measurements in Children With Sickle Cell Disease in Kenya

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited haemoglobinopathy and poses a high public health burden in Sub‐Saharan Africa. Children with sickle cell anaemia are at a highrisk of ischemic stroke, and transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography helps identify those at highest risk for primary stroke prevention.

Association Between Micronutrients and Cognitive Performance Among Adolescents and Young Adults Living With Sickle Cell Disease in Kumasi, Ghana: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yeseJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Cognitive deficits are commonly reported in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Dietary micronutrient intake is a potential modifiable risk factor whose relationship with cognition in SCD patients remains poorly characterised. This study aimed to determine the association between dietary micronutrient intake and cognition among these ...

Implementation of an Integrated Pharmacology Curriculum in a Flipped, Small‐Group, Case‐Based, Pre‐Clerkship Medical Curriculum Improved Student Performance

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Rush Medical College implemented a new, integrated pre‐clerkship curriculum. Pharmacology was integrated with other basic sciences into a flipped, small‐group, case‐based structure. This report describes the main features of the pharmacology curriculum for pharmacology directors to have a template.
