Stroke burden and functional impacts in adults with sickle cell disease

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Stroke was identified in 4.6% of 454 adults with sickle cell disease. Stroke occurred not only across HbSS/Sβ0 phenotypes but also HbSC/Sβ+ as well, challenging traditional assumptions. Stroke was associated with long‐term functional impairment, including cognitive deficits and higher disability scores.

Speciation in the baboon and its relation to gamma-chain heterogeneity and to the response to induction of HbF by 5-azacytidine [PDF]

, 1984
In the baboon (Papio species), the two nonallelic gamma-genes produce gamma-chains that differ at a minimum at residue 75, where isoleucine (I gamma-chain) or valine (V gamma) may be present.

Academic and cerebrovascular outcomes after neurodevelopmental screening in sickle cell disease: A longitudinal cohort study

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Neurodevelopmental screening in toddlers or preschoolers with sickle cell disease (SCD) predicts future academic deficits. Screening sensitivity for future academic deficits is highest in preschoolers with SCD. Brief neurodevelopmental screening tools can identify high risk children for early intervention. Abstract Aim To assess the predictive validity

Whole Blood Transcriptomic Analysis of Sickle Cell Trait

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell trait (SCT) is the heterozygous carrier state for the HBB missense variant which causes sickle cell disease (SCD). SCT has been associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism and chronic kidney disease as well as alterations in clinical laboratory parameters. To investigate differential gene expression in SCT, we used RNA

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.

Common Hematologic Emergencies—Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia and Microangiopathic Hemolytic Anemias—A Pivotal Role of Clinical Laboratory

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hematologic emergencies are urgent health conditions which result in significant mortality and morbidity unless timely therapeutic measures are taken. Therapeutic success depends on their timely and accurate recognition by hematology laboratory services.
