Study of Erythrocyte Parameters and Hypercoagulability in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD-TGA)
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited haemoglobinopathy disorder caused by mutations in HBB gene with amino-acid substitution on β globin chain. The consequence is synthesis of altered haemoglobin S (HbS) which polymerises in red blood cell (RBC) at deoxygenated state. SCD is associated with chronic haemolytic anaemia, vaso-occlusive crisis …

Blood Sampling for Research Related to Sickle Cell Disease
This study will collect representative blood samples from healthy children and adults and from children and adults who have unique red blood cell features that are related to sickle cell disease. Sickle cell disease is a blood disease that limits the ability of red blood cells to carry oxygen throughout …
Epidemiology of Silent and Overt Strokes in Sickle Cell Disease

Silent and overt strokes contribute significantly to morbidity in adults with SCD, resulting in functional impairment, challenges with school and job performance, and premature death. Five NIH-funded randomized controlled …
Iron Deficiency in Pediatric Heart Surgery
The prevalence of iron deficiency in pediatric cardiac surgery patients is not very well known. Iron deficiency can lead to anemia, higher transfusion rates and possibly higher complication rates. In this retrospective study, the iron status of all patients undergoing pediatric cardiac surgery at our institution between January 2019 and …
