Contributions of sickle hemoglobin polymer and sickle cell membranes to impaired filterability

open access: yes, 1995
Sickle cell anemia is a disease of abnormal rheology caused by acute and reversible, as well as chronic and irreversible, changes in the properties and deformability of sickle erythrocytes.

Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

Genotypes of sickle cell disease

open access: yes, 2013
In this chapter, we will discuss the genotypes and phenotypes associated with the sickle syndromes. There are four major genotypes for sickle diseases, including sickle cell trait, sickle cell anemia, and compound sickle-cell-beta-thalassemia and sickle ...

Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1456-1477, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular

A Novel Plasma Heme Assay Reveals Disease Severity in Beta‐Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1706-1716, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Anemia results from imbalanced hemoglobin or red blood cell production and clearance. Hemolytic anemia, caused by premature red blood cell removal, can be intravascular (in blood) or extravascular (erythrophagocytosis). Hemolysis is common in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) and Beta‐Thalassemia anemia (β‐thalassemia), the most prevalent inherited ...

Sickle cell trait and diabetes tests : what every healthcare provider should know [PDF]

open access: yes
According to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), the hemoglobin A1C assay may be unreliable for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes and prediabetes in individuals with sickle cell trait (SCT) or other ...

Mutations in Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter and multidrug resistance genes, and treatment outcomes in Ghanaian children with uncomplicated malaria.

open access: yes, 2007
The association between the clinical outcome of chloroquine treatment and mutations in the putative Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance transporter (Pfcrt) gene at codon 76 and multidrug resistance gene 1 (Pf mdr1) at codon 86 were investigated ...

Severe maternal morbidity according to sickle cell disease genotype

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic hemoglobinopathy that disproportionately affects individuals of African descent and is associated with elevated risks of maternal complications. However, the contribution of specific SCD genotypes to severe maternal morbidity (SMM) and postpartum readmission remains poorly characterized at the ...

Radiologic Evaluation of Paranasal Sinuses in Sickle Cell Anemia and Thalassemia: Case–Control Study

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology
Background Sickle cell disease and thalassemia are inherited hematological disorders that are common worldwide. These patients suffer from chronic hemolytic anemia, which can result in bone marrow dysfunction and, in rare cases, extramedullary ...
