Acute Exercise Challenge and Airway Dynamics in Youth With Sickle Cell Anemia: A Multicenter Study
Changes in airway dynamics in children with sickle cell anemia after maximal cardiopulmonary exercise testing and a controlled intensity interval excercise challenge. ABSTRACT Sickle cell anemia (SCA) leads to reduced physical functioning and cardiopulmonary fitness. Prior studies suggest that airway hyperresponsiveness to bronchoprovocation testing is

Abstract TP53 mutations are found in over 50% of tumor types, including myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). MPNs are characterized by a chronic phase, which may progress to secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML). Here, we discuss the physiological functions of p53 in hematopoiesis and its deregulation in MPNs.

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Between 200,000 and 300,000 children with sickle cell disease (SCD) are born in Africa every year, with 75%–80% of these children living in sub‐Saharan Africa. In newborns with SCD, significant iron accumulations may develop because of their increased risk of requiring multiple blood transfusions. This study aimed to assess
