Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

What’s in a number: Falling on the sword of cut-off points and reference limits?
Journal of the Colleges of Medicine of South AfricaThe marked increase in laboratory test volumes and costs internationally emphasises the need for demand management. One way that this can be implemented is by reducing unnecessary repeat testing with the provision of appropriate decision cut-off points ...
