Sickle-cell disease

Lancet, The, 2004
With the global scope of sickle-cell disease, knowledge of the countless clinical presentations and treatment of this disorder need to be familiar to generalists, haematologists, internists, and paediatricians alike. Additionally, an underlying grasp of sickle-cell pathophysiology, which has rapidly accrued new knowledge in areas related to erythrocyte

Sickle Cell Disease

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2021
Sickle cell disease is an umbrella term for a group of hemoglobinopathies characterized by the presence of 2 β-globin gene mutations or deletions, at least 1 of which is the point mutation that leads to the production of hemoglobin S. Sickle cell disease is associated with hemolytic anemia, significant chronic end-organ damage, and early death. In high-

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1979
Sir.—A recentJournalreport by Buchanan and Glader entitled, "Leukocyte Counts in Children With Sickle Cell Disease" (132:396-398, 1978), concluded in part that "an absolute band count greater than 1,000/μL suggests bacterial infection in children with sickle cell anemia." They found such a level in 14 of 16 episodes of bacterial infection but in only ...
