Impact of Regional Anesthesia on Inflammatory Mechanisms During Vaso-occlusive Crisis in Sickle Cell Patients
Sickle cell disease is a chronic disease characterized by multiple vaso-occlusive complications. The basic treatment for patients with a vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) is based on adequate hydration, oxygen therapy and pain control. Loco Regional Anesthesia (LRA) is one of the major treatments in resuscitation anesthesia for both anesthesia and analgesia. …
Inflammation, Platelets and Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder linked to a single mutation on beta-globin chains. This leads to red blood cell deformation and chronic hemolysis which can result in vaso-occlusive events, anemia and vasculopathy. Pathophysiology is incompletely understood, and beyond red blood cell's abnormalities this involves hemostasis …
Collection of Human Biospecimens for Basic and Clinical Research Into Globin Variants
Background Blood disorders like sickle cell disease and malaria affect many people around the world. Researchers want to learn more about blood disorders. To do this, they need to collect biological samples from people with blood disorders. They also need to collect samples from healthy people. Objective To collect samples …
Bone Loss, Physical Function and Frailty in Older Women With Sickle Cell Trait Sickle Cell Trait
This is a cross-sectional, clinical research study comparing postmenopausal women of African Descent (AD) with different hemoglobin genotypes: normal and sickle cell trait (SCT). This research study has two purposes. The first purpose is to determine whether having SCT is a risk factor for the development of bone thinning in …
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
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a rare disease occurring in an estimated 100,000 individuals, often poor and underserved, in the US. 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 …
Integrative Diagnosis for SCD and Other RADs
INTEGRA aims at enabling personalized medicine for RHADs patients by the establishment of an integrative diagnostic approach based on deep phenotypic and genetic characterization through combining new generation methodologies.
Observational Study to Deeply Phenotype Major Organs in Sickle Cell Disease After Curative Therapies
Background People with sickle cell disease (SCD) have problems with their heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and lungs as they age. These problems may improve after transplant. Researchers want to learn how and why this happens. Objective To study the benefits of treatments that are intended to cure SCD. Eligibility People …
Study of Vitamin B12 Metabolism in Children With Sickle Cell Disease Exposed to MEOPA
Short description of the protocol intended for the lay public. Include a brief statement of the study hypothesis (Limit : 5000 characters) The sickle cells anemia is a monogenic disease linked to the presence of Hemoglobin S due to a mutation in the Hemoglobin Beta chain. The lack of circulating …
QUELIMMUNE (SCD-PED) PediAtric SurVeillance REgistry
QUELIMMUNE is FDA-approved under an HDE for the treatment of pediatric patients (weight ≥10kg and age ≤22 years) with AKI due to sepsis or a septic condition on antibiotic therapy and requiring RRT. The purpose of this surveillance registry is to prospectively collect safety data among all patients treated with …
