Predictors of impending acute chest syndrome in patients with sickle cell anaemia. [PDF]

, 2020
Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is a major complication of sickle cell anaemia (SCA) and a leading cause for hospital admissions and death. We aimed to study the spectrum of clinical and laboratory features of ACS and to assess the predisposing factors and ...

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics and haematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Metabolic stimulation improves bioenergetics, redox state, hydration and hematologic indices of circulating erythrocytes from sickle cell mice. Retained mitochondria in circulating RBCs from sickle mice are a source of RBC ATP as mitochondria function (ETC, electron transport chain) inhibitors [rotenone, a mitochondrial complex I

Human induced pluripotent stem cells can reach complete terminal maturation: in vivo and in vitro evidence in the erythropoietic differentiation model

Haematologica, 2012
Background Human induced pluripotent stem cells offer perspectives for cell therapy and research models for diseases. We applied this approach to the normal and pathological erythroid differentiation model by establishing induced pluripotent stem cells ...

The Southern California Healthcare Delivery Science Center: A Model for Aligning Patients, Healthcare Systems, and Researchers to Develop, Test, and Disseminate Innovations to Achieve Health Equity

Learning Health Systems, Volume 10, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction A key barrier to translating evidence into practice is the paucity of learning health system (LHS) researchers elucidating and addressing barriers to implementation and maintenance. Methods In response to the growing need for a workforce dedicated to translating evidence into practice, we developed the Southern California ...
