2022-10-21
Abstract excerpt
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is characterized by frequent and unpredictable vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Reliable biomarkers that predict the onset and progression of VOCs in SCD are unavailable, thus the existing standard of care is more focused on VOC intervention as opposed to VOC prevention.
