Sickle cell anemia and pregnancy
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1949Abstract The present study is a review of eleven cases of sickle cell anemia associated with pregnancy observed on the Obstetrical Service of the Johns Hopkins Hospital over a 20-year period (1927–1947). No deaths occurred in these eleven mothers during the period of the pregnancy or puerperium.

Enuresis in Sickle Cell Anemia
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1967IT IS WELL recognized that patients with sickle cell disease have hyposthenuria. 1 This hyposthenuria results in the excretion of increased volumes of urine during a 24-hour period. It has been our impression that this polyuria results in an increased incidence of enuresis among children with sickle cell anemia.

American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1923
J. B. Herrick, 1 in 1910, reported a peculiar dyscrasia characterized by severe anemia, with the occurrence in the blood of elongated and sickle-shaped erythrocytes. Three instances of this condition have since been described, one by R. E. Washburn; 2 one by Cook and Myer, 3 and one by V. R. Mason. 4 Emmel 5 further studied the blood of Cook and Myer's

Issues in Comprehensive Pediatric Nursing, 1980
Sickle-cell anemia is a genetic disorder characterized by abnormal hemoglobin. One out of every 500 black children in the United States is affected by this disease. Eight to ten percent of the black population has the sickle-cell trait. While other hemoglobinopathies have been identified that also produce erythrocyte sickling and destruction, the ...

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1950
The purpose of this report is to emphasize the possibility of the occasional early onset of sickle cell anemia and to consider it in the differential diagnosis of jaundice during the neonatal period in the Negro. Sickle cell anemia 1 is a hereditary and congenital disease of the hemopoietic system occurring almost entirely in members of the Negro race.

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1977
Abstract A number of metabolites have recently been investigated to determine whether or not they can prevent or reverse the sickling of red blood cells which contain the abnormal hemoglobin, hemoglobin S, of sickle cell anemia (SCA). An hypothesis is suggested in which one of these compounds, urea, may play a significant role in the precipitation of

THE ADOLESCENT WITH SICKLE CELL ANEMIA
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1996Adolescence is a time of intense change and turmoil. Helping patients with sickle cell disease have a smooth transition from the pediatric to adult health care environment is an important and meaningful experience. Facilitating the patient's transition, however, takes time and effort.

Cholestasis in sickle cell anemia
The American Journal of Medicine, 1964Abstract A patient with sickle cell anemia who presented with marked cholestatic jaundice is described, with emphasis upon the difficulties encountered in differentiating this symptom complex from extrahepatic obstruction due to stone formation. This patient had extraordinarily high serum bilirubin levels, apparently the result of increased bilirubin ...

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF SICKLE CELL ANEMIA
Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1996The anemia results from the markedly shortened circulatory survival of SS cells, together with a limited erythropoietic response. Both independent properties of Hb S-polymerization of the deoxy-Hb and instability of the oxy-Hb-contribute to early red cell destruction by effects on the Hb and on the red cell membranes.
