Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background and Aims: </bold>Between 200,000 and 300,000 children with sickle cell disease are born in Africa every year, with 75–80% of these children living in sub-Saharan Africa. In newborns with sickle cell disease (SCD), significant iron accumulations may develop because of their increased risk of requiring multiple blood transfusions. Limited information is available regardin...
