متن کاملThe Influence of Fetal Hemoglobin on Clinical and Hematological Variables of Children and Adolescents with Sickle Cell Anemia in Basra, Southern Iraq
Background: There are many parameters that modulate the severity of sickle cell anemia. Fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) is one of these major variables. However, its effect is clinically inconsistent. We conducted a descriptive study to assess the influence of Hb F on clinical events and hematological variables in patients with sickle cell anemia. Methods: 151 patients with sickle cell anemia with a st...
متن کاملIntracardiac Thrombosis in Sickle Cell Disease

Also in sickle cell disease, intracardiac thrombus formation without structural heart diseases or atrial arrhythmias is a rare phenomenon. We herein describe a 22-year-old woman, who was a known case of sickle cell-βthalassemia, had a history of recent missed abortion, and was admitted with a vaso-occlusive...
متن کاملEffect of Non- pharmacological Palliative Methods Training on Sickle Cell Anemia Outcomes
