The interaction effect of transfusion history and previous stroke history on the risk of venous thromboembolism in stroke patients: a prospective cohort study
Blood transfusion and previous stroke history are two independent risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in stroke patients. Whether the potential interaction of transfusion history and previous stroke h...

Clinical Characteristics of Pediatric Patients with Congenital Erythrocytosis: A Single-Center Study
AbstractAlthough congenital erythrocytosis (CE), an inherited disorder, impairs pediatric quality of life, physicians often overlook high hemoglobin (Hgb) levels and its symptoms due to lack of knowledge of age-adjusted pediatric Hgb levels and CE ’s rarity. In a retrospective, single-center study, data from hospital records of pediatric patients diagnosed with CE were evaluated. Twenty-six patients from 25 families (80.8% male) had been diagnosed with CE in 20 years, at a mean age of 14.9 ± 2.8 years (8.3–17.8) and with a mean Hgb level of 17.36 ± 1.44 g/dL (14.63–22.1). No serum erythropoietin levels e...

Stroke and presence of patent foramen ovale in sickle cell disease
AbstractSickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited monogenic hemoglobinopathy characterized by formation of sickle erythrocytes under conditions of deoxygenation. Sickle erythrocytes can lead to thrombus formation and vaso-occlusive episodes that may result in hemolytic anemia, pain crisis and multiple organ damage. Moreover, SCD is characterized by endothelial damage, increased inflammatory response, platelet activation and aggravation, and activation of both the intrinsic and the extrinsic coagulation pathways. Cerebrovascular events constitute an important clinical complication of SCD. Children with SCD have a 300-fold h...

Systematic Review/Meta-Analysis on Efficacy of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Sickle Cell Disease: An International Effort on Behalf of the Pediatric Diseases Working Party of European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation and the Sickle Cell Transplantation International Consortium
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited hemoglobinopathy, affecting nearly 100,000 individuals in the United States and approximately 300,000 worldwide, with low-income countries bearing the highest burden [1,2]. It is associated with several complications, including debilitating morbidity, organ injury, and shortened life expectancy. Progress in the overall management of SCD has been made in recent years, namely improved health maintenance surveillance programs, penicillin prophylaxis, chronic blood transfusions, vaccines, primary and secondary stroke prophylaxis, use of hydroxyurea, and approval of novel a...

Blood Transfusion Frequency and Indications in Yemeni Children with Sickle Cell Disease.
Conclusion: Intermittent blood transfusion remains a common practice for the management of children with acute SCD complications. Main indications were acute anemic crises, severe pain crises, ACS, and stroke. In limited resource settings, such as Yemen, conservative transfusion policy appears to be appropriate.

Intravenous Fat Emulsion Does Not Significantly Alter Clotting Markers in Dabigatran-Treated Blood
AbstractDabigatran etexilate is an oral direct thrombin (Factor IIa) inhibitor approved for patients with atrial fibrillation and for management of risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Dabigatran offers advantages over treatment with warfarin, including limited laboratory monitoring. It is equivalent in prevention of stroke and deep vein thrombosis with essentially equivalent complication rates. In contrast to warfarin, reversal of the anticoagulation is less well established. Idarucizumab is available for reversal, however supporting research is mixed; the agent also happens to be quite expensive making av...

Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Levels and Its Correlation to Cerebral Blood Flow in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia
AbstractAsymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) level may play a role in the pathogenesis of cerebrovascular stroke in Children with Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA). To assess the plasma level of ADMA in children with SCA and its correlation to cerebral blood flow. This is a cross sectional study was carried out on 30 children with homozygous SCA under follow up in the Out Patients Clinic, Pediatric Department at Tanta University Hospital and 30 healthy children as a control group. Both groups had undergone the following investigations: Complete blood count, lactate dehydrogenase enzyme, and plasma level of ADMA by a commercial ADMA E...

Haploidentical Bone Marrow Transplantation with Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide Plus Thiotepa Improves Donor Engraftment in Patients with Sickle Cell Anemia: Results of an International Learning Collaborative
Sickle cell disease (SCD) has evolved from a life-threatening condition in early childhood to a chronic disease in adults [1,2]. Improved supportive care [3], use of hydroxyurea therapy [4], and regular blood transfusion therapy for primary [5] and secondary [6] stroke prevention have resulted in improved childhood clinical outcomes and survival. Approximately 99% of all children born with SCD are expected to live to adulthood [7,8]. The most feared complication in children with SCD is stroke [9].

Improved supportive care [3], use of hydroxyurea therapy [4], and regular blood transfusion therapy for primary [5] and secondary [6] stroke prevention, have resulted in improved childhood clinical outcomes and survival. Approximately 99% of all children born in high resource countries with SCD are expected to live to adulthood [7,8]. The most feared complication in children with SCD is stroke [9].

SOD3-Mimetic As a Complement for Genetic Therapy in Sickle Cell Disease
Conclusions:The present results support development of SanFlow, delivered through continuous infusion, for anemic SCD children to prevent the development of blood transfusion dependency in order to avoid stroke and painful vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC). These results also demonstrated that SanFlow can be used safely and effectively in the elimination of serious painful vaso-occlusive crisis and protect silent and major strokes. Clinical trials of SanFlow in SCD children, prior to their transfusion dependence, as well as in transfusion-dependent teenagers and adults with SCD patients are warranted. By extension, ß-Thala...

The Role of Hydroxyurea to Prevent Silent Stroke in Sickle Cell Disease: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Chronic blood transfusions are standard of care for stroke prevention in sickle cell disease. We evaluated hydroxyurea's efficacy in preventing silent stroke. We searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies on Pubmed, CENTRAL, Embase, and Web of Science without using language/time limits. Eligible studies compared hydroxyurea with transfusions or observation to prevent silent stroke. This systematic review adheres to the Cochrane guidelines. Data were pooled using random effects model using STATA to perform meta-analysis. Methodological quality of RCTs was investigated using the Cochrane risk ...

Transfusion Therapy in a Multi-Ethnic Sickle Cell Population Real-World Practice. a Preliminary Data Analysis of Multicentre Survey
Conclusion. The transfusional approach is similar in HbSS, b°-thal/HbS and b+-thal/HbS patients with similar indications, prevalently VOCs and anemia. The significant higher age in Caucasian cohort and the consequent long term follow up could be the cause of variable therapeutic approach observed, however Hydroxycarbamide seemed to be the therapy more frequently used and finally suggested to manage chronic manifestations.Figure.DisclosuresOriga: Apopharma: Honoraria; Novartis: Honoraria; Bluebird Bio: Consultancy; Cerus Corporation: Research Funding.
