Acute complications of Sickle cell anemia are treated symptomatically with analgesics and transfusions, and a prophylactic treatment of sickle cell crisis is long term application of hydroxyurea. According to the present invention, an N-methyl D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) blocker is used for the ...
Safety and Efficacy of L-Glutamine in Reducing the Frequency of Acute Complications Among Patients with Sickle Cell Disease: A Randomized Controlled Study INTRODUCTION. Patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) suffer from recurrent and unpredictable episodes of acute pain due to vaso-occlusive crisis (...
Sickle cell disease and β thalassemia are common severe diseases with little effective pathophysiologically-based treatment. Their phenotypic heterogeneity prompted genomic approaches to identify modifiers that ultimately might be exploited therapeutically. Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is the major modulator of the...
