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