Phosphaturia in Thalassemia

Pediatrics, 1976
Thirteen phosphorus balances were performed in four thalassemic children aged 6 to 10 years. No correlation was found between phosphorus intake and serum level or between phosphorus intake and net absorption. There was a positive correlation among daily phosphorus intake, net absorption, and 24-hour urinary excretion.

Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

HOPE Kids 2: Phase 3, Randomized Trial of Voxelotor in Children With SCD and Conditional Cerebral Blood Flow Velocities

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
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 ...

The Presence and Percentage of Circulating Nucleated Red Blood Cells Reveal Distinct Characteristics in Adults With Sickle Cell Disease

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although circulating nucleated red blood cells (cNRBCs) have previously been detected in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), their prevalence and clinical significance during steady‐state disease have not been established. We retrospectively analyzed 270 adults with an SS or Sβ0‐thalassemia genotype.
