SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

Alternate names

SICKLE CELL ANEMIA Is also known as sickle cell disease

Description

Sickle cell anemias are chronic hemolytic diseases that may induce three types of acute accidents: severe anemia, severe bacterial infections, and ischemic vasoocclusive accidents (VOA) caused by sickle-shaped red blood cells obstructing small blood vessels and capillaries. Many diverse complications can occur.

Most common symptoms of SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

  • Intellectual disability
  • Pain
  • Anemia
  • Hypertension
  • Hepatomegaly

ANHAPTOGLOBINEMIA; AHP

Alternate names

ANHAPTOGLOBINEMIA; AHP Is also known as ahaptoglobinemia

Description

Anhaptoglobinemia refers to absence of the serum glycoprotein haptoglobin, a hemoglobin-binding acute-phase protein (summary by Teye et al., 2004). Serum levels of haptoglobin vary among normal persons: levels are low in the neonatal period and in the elderly, differ by population, and can be influenced by environmental factors, such as infection. Secondary hypohaptoglobinemia can occur as a consequence of hemolysis, during which haptoglobin binds to free hemoglobin (summary by Delanghe et al., 1998).

Most common symptoms of ANHAPTOGLOBINEMIA; AHP

  • Seizures
