Background/Objectives: Resiliency is critical in coping with stressors associated chronic health diseases. Sickle cell disease (SCD) a blood disorder which familial psychosocial functioning impacts outcomes. We hypothesized that caregiver perceived stress and resiliency are related to the of children SCD may influence clinical Methods: Child-caregiver dyads completed Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), Connor Davidson-Resilience (CD-RISC), used 1-5 Likert scale rate frequency they experience,...
Human parvovirus B19 causes life-threatening anemia due to transient red cell aplasia (TRCA) in individuals with sickle disease (SCD). Children SCD experiencing profound during TRCA often require blood transfusions and hospitalization. The prevalence of vitamin deficiencies is high are associated respiratory pain symptoms, but the effects vitamins on acute infection remain unclear. We performed a clinical study which 20 patients hospitalized infections (Day 0) were monitored over 120-day...
Summary Individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD) have historically been considered underweight. Despite increasing body mass index (BMI) in the general population, prevalence of overweight and obese status remains unclear adult SCD population. Our primary aim was to determine identify associations between BMI, demographic, clinical characteristics. We conducted an analysis abstracted electronic health record data patient‐reported outcomes from Sickle Cell Disease Implementation Consortium...
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by sickle hemoglobin (HbS) which polymerizes under deoxygenated conditions to form a stiff, sickled erythrocyte. The dehydration of erythrocytes increases intracellular HbS concentration and the propensity erythrocyte sickling. Prevention this mechanism may provide target for potential SCD therapy investigation. Ionophores such as monensin can increase sodium permeability facilitating its transmembrane transport, leading osmotic swelling decreased...
