ABSTRACT Children with SCD have elevated stroke risk, correlated with cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV). HOPE Kids 2 was a phase 3, multicenter, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial evaluating the effect of voxelotor on CBFV. Participants aged 2 to < 15 years with SCD (HbSS/HbSβ0) and conditional CBFV (170 to < 200 cm/s) were randomized 1:1 to ...

Objective Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchored proteins play critical roles in nervous system function. Pathogenic variants in genes involved in GPI‐anchor biosynthesis cause early‐onset multisystem disorders known as inherited GPI deficiencies. We describe a novel neuromuscular phenotype associated with PIGB deficiency.
