Uganda Sickle Surveillance Study (US-3)
It is estimated that over 250,000 babies are born with sickle cell disease (SCD) annually in sub-Saharan Africa, and only 10% - 50% of them survive beyond five years of age. Data describing the magnitude of the sickle cell problem are lacking in most African countries. The available data on …
Study of the Role of Genetic Modifiers in Hemoglobinopathies
This study will investigate the role of genetic modifiers in hemoglobinopathies through a large-scale, multi-ethnic genome-wide association study (GWAS).
RADeep Multicenter European Epidemiological Platform for Patients Diagnosed With Rare Anemia Disorders (RADs)
Rare Anaemia Disorders (RADs) is a group of rare diseases characterized for presenting anaemia as the main clinical manifestation. Different medical entities classified as RADs by ORPHA classification are most of them chronic life threating disorders with many unmet needs for their proper clinical management creating an impact on European …
Sickle Cell Kidney Biorepository
Kidney disease is a major cause of illness and death in people with sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait. Despite these concerning facts, we do not (1) have an in-depth understanding of how kidney disease starts in sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait, (2) have detailed insights into …
Early Diagnosis of SCD Based on Radiogenomics
The incidence of AD dementia is increasing due to the aging population, putting a heavy burden on our society and economics. Exploring the mechanisms underlying SCD due to preclinical AD has scientific and clinical significance. However, it is challenging to construct and validate the preclinical diagnosis model of AD with …
Cooperative Assessment of Late Effects for SCD Curative Therapies
Sickle Cell Disease is one of the most common genetic diseases in the United States, occurring in approximately 1 in 400 births. Approximately 100,000 individuals are diagnosed with SCD in the United States. Mortality for children with SCD has decreased substantially over the past 4 decades, with >99% of those …
Achieving Understanding of the Natural History of Sickle Cell Trait (AUNT)
The main purpose of this study is to create a longitudinal cohort of those with Sickle Cell Trait (SCT) to better understand the hematologic phenotype for those that carry HbS, assess for differences in those with varying quantities of HbS and assess for potential clinical complications of SCT.
Development of Non-Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis for Single Gene Disorders
Cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) is present in the maternal blood from the early first trimester of gestation and makes up 5%-20% of the total circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in maternal plasma. Its presence in maternal plasma has allowed development of noninvasive prenatal diagnosis for single-gene disorders (SGD-NIPD). This can be …
European Rare Blood Disorders Platform (ENROL)
ENROL, the European Rare Blood Disorders Platform has been conceived in the core of ERN-EuroBloodNet as an umbrella for both new and already existing registries on Rare Hematological Diseases (RHDs). ENROL aims at avoiding fragmentation of data by promoting the standards for patient registries' interoperability released by the EU RD …
Investigation of the Genetics of Hematologic Diseases
The purpose of this study is to collect and store samples and health information for current and future research to learn more about the causes and treatment of blood diseases. This is not a therapeutic or diagnostic protocol for clinical purposes. Blood, bone marrow, hair follicles, nail clippings, urine, saliva …
