People with sickle cell disease (SCD) are living longer, but their lives are impacted even more by the unpredictable intermittent or constant pain that is often poorly managed over a lifetime. To address this problem, an interdisciplinary team approa

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a pleiotropic genetic disorder of hemoglobin that has profound multiorgan effects. The low prevalence of SCD ( approximately 100,000/US) has limited progress in clinical, basic, and translational research. Lack of a large

In a multicenter study (eight centers), we determined secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) levels in patients with sickle cell disease and acute chest syndrome (ACS). The diagnosis of ACS was made according to established criteria. The sPLA2 levels

Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is the most common cause of death in patients with sickle cell anemia. Its management is primarily palliative. We performed a Phase I evaluation of purified poloxamer 188 (a non-ionic surfactant) in the management of ACS. F

PURPOSE Few studies address the association of Chlamydia pneumoniae infection with pulmonary disease and outcome in patients with underlying pathology such as sickle cell disease (SCD). SCD patients are susceptible to the pulmonary disorder known as

Pulmonary complications and hypoxemia are common in sickle cell disease (SCD) and may exacerbate microvascular occlusive phenomena. Thus, detecting hypoxemia is of particular importance in SCD. To assess the accuracy of pulse oximetry in the diagnosi
