The prevalence and burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) are disproportionately high in individuals with skin colour (SOC). Previous research shows that risk for xerosis and/or dyspigmentation is heightened this population may be more bothersome. However, there no patient-reported instruments developed specifically these disease sequelae patients SOC. To develop perform content validation outcome (PRO) questionnaires to assess AD-related A targeted literature review was conducted understand...

There is increasing evidence demonstrating the value of transfusions in sickle cell disease (SCD). However, resultant iron overload can be life threatening if untreated. Chelation therapy with deferoxamine requires parenteral infusions that negatively impact quality and adherence to treatment.As part a phase II trial, SCD patient-reported outcomes were evaluated. One hundred ninety-five patients randomized (2:1) receive oral deferasirox (5-30 mg/kg/day) or (20-50 mg/kg, 5 days per week); 121...

BACKGROUND: Patients requiring chronic blood transfusions are at risk for iron overload, which, if not treated by chelation therapy (ICT), can create serious organ damage and reduce life expectancy. Current ICT requires burdensome 8‐ to 12‐hour infusions five seven times per week. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: A naturalistic study of the burden infused was conducted in four US centers. Data from initial most recent years were collected medical charts consenting thalassemia (n = 40) sickle cell...
