When I say ‘IMHA', what comes to mind? For me, it's the most challenging case I have ever cared for: a patient who had such severe anaemia that their jaundice made them neurological, earning them a few days on a propofol CRI due to seizures. Whilst not every IMHA case is like this—thankfully—these patients do need intensive nursing care and monitoring, and with this, there are many skills we can use when caring for them. But to do that, we first need to understand IMHA, how it affects our patients, and how we manage it—exactly what we're covering in this episode. ---

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Critique our position - Sickle cell anaemia in sub-Saharan Africa (Cameroon), published by EffectiveHelp - Cameroon on August 19, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. There is a good post exploring sickle cell disease, here: [Cause Exploration Prizes] Sickle Cell Disease - EA Forum (effectivealtruism.org). This is a good starting point before reading this one. Effective Help[1] is a small EA-inspired Cameroonian[2] organization trying to identify local cost-effective projects. We analysed data from 39 local projects and found one standing out, a small monthly cash transfer to families with a child or more suffering from sickle cell anaemia. We decided to partner with the NGO carrying out this project and raise funds for it. We think this is a good way forward for us. Please go through our thinking below and tell us how to improve. Questions: 1. How bad is sickle cell anaemia in Sub-Saharan Africa (Cameroon in particular) for those who suffer it? 2. Are cash transfers to families with children suffering from this problem a cost-effective form of reducing mortality and improving quality of life? Our position: We don't think this is as cost-effective as some of the best causes globally, but we think it compares much better to other local NGOs in Cameroon and to other projects in crowdfunding sites, so we are comfortable raising more funds away from less cost-effective causes and towards this one. The worst that can happen is that we transfer funds to a poor family, at a slightly higher cost than GiveDirectly (because of the small scale of the project, overhead is proportionally higher) and the best is that we save children from early deaths and make them win years of life with as little as 49USD a month (588 a year). We also think the first family identified has such a brutal story, which we won't share here, that the children are significantly worse-off than the average children with sickle cell in Cameroon. We think the effect of the first donations securing the next 3 years of transfers for this family should be higher than if the project had a larger scale and covered hundreds of families systematically. On the other hand, there is a point to be made about prioritizing families when the child is between 1 and 3 years of age and mortality peaks, and this specific family has already passed that stage. You can check out the project on this page. Help children with sickle cell syndrome - GlobalGiving and other sickle-cell projects in GlobalGiving here: Search - GlobalGiving How bad is sickle cell anaemia? We have much better data from developed countries. Life expectancy with sickle cell anaemia could be 42 years for males and 48 for women, as opposed to 75 and 82.[3] Sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease is a bit better: 60 for males and 68 for females. One of the studies we use as a reference followed 3,764 patients of different ages[4], and included investigation on 209 patients who died. 33% of those who died, died during an acute sickle crisis, and there was a high correlation between early death and some key symptoms of sickle cell anaemia: acute chest syndrome, renal failure, and seizures. The information available tells us those living with sickle cell are very likely already to have a shorter life, even when they are accessing good treatment. This is sad and may reduce potential cost-effectiveness for our project (even in the best circumstances, patients tend to live less). How much of the danger can be mitigated with treatment? How much worse is it without treatment? Without treatment or with bad treatment most children die without reaching adulthood. As late as 1973, the median survival age was reported to be 14 years, and 20% of children died within two years. So, we think regular treatment can more than triple life expectancy, over time adding 28 years to someo...

Brooke is joined by special guest, Saadiya Yusuf, who shares her experience of living with sickle cell anaemia, a genetic blood disorder. Saadiya explains the challenges of describing the condition to others and the importance of maintaining medical autonomy, as well as discussing its impact on red blood cells, oxygen levels, and the occurrence of painful episodes known as sickle cell crisis. Saadiya also addresses the issue of fatigue and the impact of sickle cell on childhood and teenage years, reflecting on the process of understanding and accepting her condition, as well as the resilience she has developed.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Sickle cell anaemia is a genetic blood disorder that affects the shape and function of red blood cells. People with sickle cell anaemia experience severe bouts of pain called sickle cell crisis, which can last from a day to a month. Sickle cell trait is when a person carries one copy of the sickle cell gene but does not have any symptoms. Resilience is a key trait for individuals with sickle cell anaemia, as they often have to navigate challenges and manage their condition. It is important to prioritise self-care and not feel guilty about taking time for rest and managing one's health. BEST MOMENTS "I think there is a misconception I think with doctors and kind of like going to the hospital that it's just a black disease or just like a black condition and I understand where that comes from but I think it can be quite dangerous to kind of categorise a condition that way because medical racism plays a part in everything."  "I definitely say to kind of or thinking about entering the corporate world to look for companies and organisations that really value inclusion and have kind of like processes in place to help people to help their staff with disabilities."  "I think it's definitely a journey, especially if you've had a disability all your life, but society and the way society is set up will make you feel like you shouldn't be proud of it."  "I understand the desperation of wanting like, oh, there must be something, you know. And I think a lot of those so-called doctors kind of pray on that desperation."  VALUABLE RESOURCES https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/disabled-and-proud/id1621152878 HOST BIO Disabled and Proud is the show that brings listeners a different perspective on disability.

October 1 was National Voluntary Blood Donation Day. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare organised a massive drive- #RaktdaanAmritMahotsav- starting from September 17 - which is Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday all the way up to October 1. The Ministry claimed that they collected a record number of blood units- about 1.68 lakhs in a single day. But how do blood centres cope for the rest of the year? There are 3932 blood banks in the country for more than 700 districts, as per the latest records. Suno India's Menaka Rao spoke to Dr Joy Mammen to understand the universe of blood banking and transfusions. Dr Mammen is head of transfusion medicine at Christian Medical College, Vellore. Dr Mammen led a major study commissioned by the National Blood Transfusion Council on the clinical demand of blood in the country.  References World record created on Day 1 of ‘Raktdaan Amrit Mahotsav', Mandaviya tweets | Latest News India - Hindustan TimesCommon Cause vs Union Of India And Others on 4 January, 1996National Blood PolicyThe_clinical_demand_and_supply_of_blood_in_India:_A_National_level_estimation_studyRepeat voluntary non-remunerated blood donor is the best quality indicator for blood safetySee sunoindia.in/privacy-policy for privacy information.

Suzy speaks to Quentin Hill about pitfalls in diagnosis and treatment of haemolytic anaemia.

Cochrane has produced several systematic reviews of interventions that might help people suffering from anaemia. In this podcast, Claire Iannizzi talks with lead author Anne Adams, both from the University Hospital Cologne in Germany, about a review of intravenous, oral or no iron in combination with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents for cancer patients with anaemia, which was published for the first time in June 2022.

More than one in seven people in the US have chronic kidney disease, orCKD, making it one of the top causes of death, and anaemia is a common, though undertreated complication. Dr Robert Provenzano of Wayne State University and his team pooled together the results of three randomised clinical trials to investigate the efficacy and safety of of new treatment, Roxadustat, in managing the blood disease risks of CKD patients.

We're discussing metabolic health, metabolic healing, the kinship of different nutrients and minerals, and how an imbalance of certain nutrients and minerals such as copper, zinc, iron, and magnesium are at the root cause of a range of health conditions becoming prevalent in society. In pursuit of health and healing, most people, at some point in their life, have been told by a doctor or healthcare practitioner that they need to take Vitamin C, D, and Iron supplements to bring their body back into a state of harmony. At some point in their life, many women will also be told they are anaemic. In this episode, Dan breaks down how and why many people who have been diagnosed as anaemic are actually not, and how downsizing the number of synthetic supplements you take daily (a less is more approach)- could be the missing link in achieving health harmony. Dan discusses his health journey finding out he was copper anaemic, which lead him to researching the relationship between ceruloplasmin production, copper deficiency, tissue-stored iron, retinol, D3, and whole-food vitamin C. We love having Dan frequent the SuperFeast pod; his non-dogmatic approach and devotion to upgrading his knowledge in health and vitality keep us inspired and on point. In this episode, Dan delivers accessible health protocols for acute situations and lifestyle maintenance and discusses what an ancestrally aligned diet looks like, and why our bodies thrive on them.     "It turns, out a lot of the time people aren't actually low in iron. It's just that so much of their iron is stuck in the tissue, and it looks deficient in the blood. So, what do they get? They get iron supplements. Which just compounds the whole problem. It creates more oxidative stress. No one's looking at copper. If anything, they've been told they have too much copper, right? So you can see how that conundrum just accelerates and accelerates. And you end up with this more inflammatory, more oxidative stress type of picture over time, which eventually leads to chronic fatigue". - Dan Sipple     Mason and Dan discuss:   -Anaemia. -Zinc deficiency. -Copper anaemia -Pyrrole disorder. -Metabolic health. -Metabolic healing. -Ancestral nutrition. -Bioavailable copper. -Autoimmune disorders. -DHEA supplementation. -The Importance of retinol. -Hemochromatosis in men. -Terrain theory vs germ theory. -Copper deficiency symptoms. -The difference between retinol and beta carotene. -The relationship between retinol and D3 supplements. -Whole food vitamin C vs ascorbic acid and liposomal C.    Who Dan Sipple?  Dan Sipple also known as The Functional Naturopath is based on the south coast of NSW and has a special interest in gut health, immune dysfunction, pro-metabolic health, mineral rebalancing & hormones.  Dan has been in the health and wellness arena for over a decade and blends traditional herbal medicine systems and knowledge with cutting-edge functional and integrative testing to best facilitate a patient's journey to peak wellness.   Resources:   Dan Website Dan Instagram Gut Health Podcast 1 Gut Health Podcast 2 Autoimmunity and Medicinal Mushrooms (EP#18) Optimising Your Gut Bacteria with Dan Sipple (EP#68) How to Turn Your Immune System On with Dan Sipple (EP#131)   Resources mentioned in the podcast:   Truth Calkins book Matt Blackburn website Morley Robbins - Cure Your Fatigue (book) Ray Peat- Generative Energy Restoring The Wholeness of Life   Check Out The Transcript Here: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/dan-sipple-ep-158
