Sickle cell anaemia is a disease of red blood cells, caused by an autosomal recessive single gene defect in the beta-chain of haemoglobin, which results in production of sickle cell haemoglobin. Sickle cells can obstruct blood flow and break down prematurely, and they are associated with varying degrees of anaemia. A common presentation of sickle cell disease (SCD) is a painful sickle crisis, caused by obstruction of small blood capillaries. Treatment includes symptom control (including pain management) and prevention and management of complications. Until now, haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation has been the only potentially curative treatment option, but a new type of gene therapy has just been launched by NHS England. In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson gives an overview of some of the key points of SCD, with a focus on this new treatment and its availability.Access episode show notes containing key references and take-home points at:https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/haematology/ep-148-sickle-cell-disease.Did you know?

Writing histories of communism and "really existing socialism" have been fraught with political tension for decades. On the one hand, sectarian debates in the global left too often overlooked the nuances of really existing socialism and cutting edge academic research in order to align with specific ideological orientations. On the other hand, and far more consequential, Cold War-era anti-communism (and the collapse of the Soviet Union that followed) engendered generations of historians - both professional and not - with an implicit hostility to communism as an intellectual starting point. While many historians have directly opposed anti-communist History writing, and successfully shaped and contributed to academic and popular discussions, anti-communism persists in the academy and popular discourses globally. So how should we assess and understand "anti-communism" and its relationship with History? And how do popular memory politics, nationalist imaginations, global political shifts, archival access and academic trends play into it? And what does all this mean for the left and socialist politics today?On today's episode we discuss all this and more with Stefan Gužvica, using his recent article in Jacobin on the notorious "Black Book of Communism" as a starting point. You can read the article here:⁠https://jacobin.com/2025/01/black-book-communism-courtois-history⁠Stefan Gužvica is assistant professor at the Department of History of the Higher School of Economics in Saint Petersburg, Russian Federation. He is the author of Before Tito: The Communist Party of Yugoslavia during the Great Purge, 1936–1940. He is currently working on a book based off his doctoral dissertation defended at the University of Regensburg in 2022, titled "Sickle without a Hammer: Revolution and Nation-Building in the Balkans, 1900s–1930s."(episode image is a French anti-communist poster circa 1950/51 entitled "Caucasian Dance" produced by the movement "Peace and Freedom". In the background, accompanying Stalin on balalaikas, are the leaders of the French Communist Party at the time: Marcel Cachin, Jacques Duclos, André Marty, and Maurice Thorez)

Sickle cell disease affects approximately 100,000 Americans, with 1 in 365 Black or African American births impacted by this inherited blood disorder. This chronic condition causes immense pain and complications, significantly reducing life expectancy and quality of life for those affected. While treatments have improved over the years, there's growing interest in exploring new avenues to manage sickle cell disease more effectively. One promising area of research is the connection between sickle cell disease and gut health. Recent studies have revealed intriguing links between the gut microbiome and various aspects of sickle cell disease, including pain management and overall well-being. Understanding this relationship could potentially open up new therapeutic approaches and improve outcomes for patients. That's why we're so glad to chat on IG Live with Dr. Charlie Ware, a holistic health expert with expertise in gut health and sickle cell. During this Live, we're going to discuss symptoms of sickle cell disease, the role of genetics in sickle cell, how your gut plays a role in your health, and so much more.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a condition of immense and multifarious clinical gravity causing acute pain, joint damage, anemia and risk of infection, stroke, delayed growth in children and adolescents — as well as long-term organ dysfunction. However, recent evolutions in treatment options offer promising novel and emerging therapeutics poised to truly revolutionize SCD care. On this episode of NP Pulse: The Voice of the Nurse Practitioner®, nurse practitioner (NP) specialists Sheryl Mitchell and Artangela Henry guide NPs to achieve the following learning objectives: Describe the epidemiologic patterns, pathophysiologic principles and robust patient burden of SCD. Examine current best practices for SCD diagnosis, highlighting the fundamental importance of early disease detection, characterization and linkage to treatment. Evaluate the established and evolving therapeutic landscape for SCD, with a focus on recent regulatory approvals and emerging trial data for novel agents. Design individualized, evidence-driven treatment plans for patients with SCD that mitigate disease complications and improve quality of life. Identify residual unmet needs in the SCD treatment paradigm and discuss the role of ongoing research and comprehensive, multidisciplinary care strategies in closing these gaps.

BUFFALO, NY- December 11, 2024 – A new #research paper was #published in Aging (listed by MEDLINE/PubMed as "Aging (Albany NY)" and "Aging-US" by Web of Science) Volume 16, Issue 21 on November 14, 2024, entitled, “Adolescents and young adults with sickle cell disease exhibit accelerated aging with elevated T-cell p16INK4a expression.” Researchers Samuel R. Wilson, Natalia Mitin, Vanessa L. Ayer Miller, Andrew B. Smitherman, and Marcus A. Carden, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Sapere Bio, Campbell University, and Cogent Biosciences have discovered that young people with sickle cell disease (SCD) exhibit signs of accelerated biological aging compared to those without the disease. By measuring levels of p16INK4a, a key marker of cellular aging, the team found significantly higher levels in individuals with SCD. Remarkably, some participants showed biological aging equivalent to an additional 43 years. These findings suggest that SCD may drive faster aging in the body, offering new insights into the disease's long-term impact. Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic condition primarily affecting individuals of African or Mediterranean descent. While treatments have advanced, people with SCD often face significant health challenges, including complications that mimic the effects of aging. Cellular aging, or senescence, occurs when cells stop dividing yet continue to send harmful signals that damage surrounding tissues. Researchers believe this process happens at an accelerated rate in people with SCD, underscoring the importance of finding ways to slow it down and mitigate its impact. The study compared p16INK4a levels in 18 adolescents and young adults with SCD to 27 healthy people of the same age. The results showed that even the youngest participant with SCD had higher levels of this aging marker than anyone in the non-SCD group. “Our youngest participant, a 15-year-old with SCD, had a higher p16 expression than all the comparators, underscoring the early rise of p16 expression in this population.” The researchers believe this faster aging could be caused by the chronic inflammation, lack of oxygen, and stress on the body associated with SCD. Along with managing the symptoms of the disease, SCD patients also face a higher risk of aging-related problems like organ damage and physical decline much earlier in life. The findings suggest that measuring p16INK4a levels could help clinicians identify patients at risk for these problems earlier and offer targeted care. The study also opens the door to new treatments, such as drugs that aim to remove old, damaged cells. These therapies could potentially slow down the aging process. Further research is essential to confirm these findings and to gain a deeper understanding of how to support SCD patients effectively. Larger, long-term studies could investigate whether therapies targeting cell aging can help prevent complications and improve the quality of life for individuals with SCD. In conclusion, this study marks an important step in understanding how SCD accelerates aging and offers new ways to improve the lives of those living with the condition.

The Moon goes face to face with the lion early tomorrow. At first light, Regulus, Leo’s brightest star, stands close to the lower right of the Moon. And a star in the lion’s mane is a little farther to the left of the Moon. It’s part of the curving pattern of stars known as the Sickle. Algieba is about 125 light-years away. It’s the fourth-brightest star in the constellation. And like Regulus, there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye. It consists of two stars, plus one known planet. The stars are separated by hundreds of times the distance from Earth to the Sun, so it takes centuries for them to orbit each other. Both stars are giants – they’re much bigger and brighter than the Sun. That tells us that both stars are late in life. They’ve burned through the hydrogen fuel in their cores. Now, they may be burning the helium “ash” created by that process. That’s caused their outer layers to puff up. The heavier star has one confirmed planet. It was discovered 15 years ago. A study last year said it’s at least 11 times the mass of Jupiter, the giant of our own solar system. That means it’s likely a big ball of gas, probably with a small core of rock and metal. The planet is a bit farther from the star than Earth is from the Sun. At that range, the top of its atmosphere should be hot and turbulent. But so far, there haven’t been any follow-up studies to tell us more about this giant planet in the lion’s mane. Script by Damond Benningfield

Breeding a "Star" requires depth of knowledge Join host Laura Reeves for part two of her conversation with Cody Sickle, Cherokee Legend Bulldogs, breeder of Star, GCH Cherokee Legend Encore, BIS at the 2022 AKC National Championship. [caption id="attachment_13057" align="alignleft" width="442"] GCH Cherokee Legend Encore, “STAR”. Breeders-Cody T Sickle, Connie Chambers and Sherry HazelettOwners- Alaina Moulton, BJ Whitlow, and Kevin & Natalie MasonLe[/caption] "I think there's a lot of things to think about in breeding," Sickle said. "I think one of the things to really focus on in breeding is watch what everybody else is doing. Just like in picking puppies, knowledge makes a difference. Knowledge makes a difference in this too. Look who's breeding successfully. "I think most breeders would actually be better if they never owned a stud. Because I don't think most breeders have the fortitude, the self-control, not to think they're going to make their own stud famous. I think the best breeders think in terms of 'I don't care who owns this dog, if I think there's a stud out there that will improve my breeding program, even if I don't care for the people that own the dog at all, doesn't matter. I'm not marrying them, I'm breeding to their dog'. "And when you do a breeding, be honest about it. When I do a breeding, I don't have the idea that, well, I'm going to keep the best this or that out of the breeding. I don't think of that. I'll keep the best out of it if it's good enough. But just because it's out of two dogs that I have a high regard for if the puppies aren't good enough, move on. "We will frequently do grandfather to granddaughter breedings. I've only once done a brother and sister breeding. And it turned out to be wonderful, but they were the only brother and sister I've ever seen in our breed that I would have considered breeding together. "We've been fortunate to have good studs. And a good measure of that is the last 40 years for the national specialty at least one Cherokee stud is behind every single breed winner. And that impresses me. And a lot of the record stuff doesn't impress me. "I think the future of Bulldogs in general is good. Bulldogs are a wonderful family dog. Not every family, you know, if you're a family of athletes who's going to go out running the marathon every weekend, Bulldog's not the right dog. If you want a dog that is going to be a terrific family pet, love everybody, get along with everybody. A bulldog is an excellent dog. They're just nice dogs. "I think we are so fortunate to have the sport of dog shows. For a lot of us, it's a major part of our lives and has been for the major part of our lives. But I like the dogs, I like the competition, I like the people, I like the camaraderie. There's no place that I feel more comfortable than a dog show, and that's because of the people for sure, and as much complaining as we see on social media, I think it's a wonderful sport."

Famed Bulldog breeder-owner-handler Cody Sickle joins host Laura Reeves for the first of a two-part series on owner-handlers, dog shows, Bulldogs, breeding and camaraderie. [caption id="attachment_13037" align="alignleft" width="399"] CHEROKEE LEGEND NOR'EASTER DEREKLong Island Bulldog Club Specialty. Winners Dog & Best of Winners. Judge: Phoebe Booth[/caption] Sickle's renowned Cherokee Bulldogs have quite a record. According to his records, he has bred or owned 256 Champions, more than any other Bulldog breeder ever in the USA. His dogs have won 99 All Breed Bests In Show and 591 Bests In Specialty Show, five National Specialty Bests Of Breed and 15 Westminster Kennel Club Bests of Breed. All of which rank as #1 all-time results in the breed. Sickle says he knew he wanted a Bulldog from the time he was 5 years old. His parents said he had to pay for it himself. So he skipped going to the movies, did extra jobs, saved his allowance and finally was able to purchase his first dog for $60. "I find the Bulldog people are terrific," Sickle said. "They are just as you say. We go in the ring, we're competing with each other and we're obviously all trying to win. When it's over, it's over. We are all friends when it's over. We are a good representative of what sportsmanship should be almost all the time. There are exceptions, but not very many. "I've listened to people say, well, you know, the Bulldog people are good, but this breed is not. I'm not intimately familiar with the interactions of people in other breeds. But I am very into the dog people in general and the dog people in general are helpful. [caption id="attachment_13036" align="alignright" width="403"] Cody Sickle with CH. CHEROKEE MORGAN. Best In Show…Penn Ridge Kennel Club. Judge: James Warwick. August 1969[/caption] "I've never once in my life went up to any dog person and said tell me about this or tell me about that and had them say no, not ever. And when I was 13 years old, I used to hang around the handlers. Richard Bauer when Jimmy Mitchell was his assistant. Wendell Sammett when Paul Edwards was his assistant. Peter Green, the Forsyths, they were all terrific. They were all perfectly willing to share their knowledge. They're perfectly willing to answer all my questions, and my questions were incessant. "The Bulldog people were the same way. One of the benefits about the Bulldog people being good people is that, in order to learn I think it's necessary to speak to lots of people. Because people have different views. Some people just can't communicate what you're trying to learn and sometimes whatever they're saying, even though it's just right on, it doesn't register properly. So if you ask everybody and work at weeding out what sounds like nonsense and keeping what sounds like it's valuable, you're going to learn a lot more."

Dutch & Tena review the Netflix series 'Supercell,' created and directed by British rapper Rapman. This series follows the lives of five black individuals from South London who discover they have superpowers due to a mutation in the sickle cell gene. The show cleverly ties in real-world issues such as the medical industry's historical mistreatment of black people and the systemic racism that persists in various forms.Each character in 'Supercell' represents different struggles faced by the black community, from dealing with incarceration and financial instability to navigating complex family dynamics and gang violence. The series also highlights the role of a shadow government that monitors and exploits these individuals for their powers, drawing parallels to real-life surveillance and control over marginalized communities.

Dr. Zach Baker, DPT, SCS and Dr. Seth Hawks, DPT discuss recent literature and pscyhological readiness to return to sport after ACL surgery. They also discuss updates to the NATA guidlines on Sickle Cell related illnesses with training. 

Are we truly achieving health equity when patients with sickle cell anemia face a stark lack of family counseling and support in hospitals? How can we claim fairness in healthcare when these basic needs are so often neglected? And what about cultural differences in healthcare? How frequently are these crucial aspects overlooked, perpetuating disparities? Is it any wonder that African-American patients often feel undervalued in a system that fails to recognize their humanity?   In this episode of the Productivity Smarts Podcast, host Gerald J. Leonard is joined by Dr. Mauvareen Beverley, an executive physician renowned for her expertise in patient engagement and cultural competency. As the author of Nine Simple Solutions to Achieve Health Equity, Dr. Beverley draws on her extensive experience to explain why cultural competency is essential in healthcare. She shares innovative approaches for improving health outcomes, focusing on African American communities and patients with sickle cell disease. Through personal stories, Dr. Beverley underscores the importance of understanding cultural contexts to enhance patient care and achieve meaningful results.   Don't miss this episode for Dr. Beverley's invaluable insights and actionable strategies for advancing equitable healthcare.   What We Discuss [02:32] Dr. Beverley's background [04:43] The bridge-team concept [05:47] Patient story: Sickle cell experience [07:41] Understanding patient needs [10:39] Sustainability of health equity initiatives [12:52] Barriers to health equity [14:53] Historical context of health disparities [20:24] Cultural competence in healthcare [22:34] Curiosity in patient engagement [29:04] Workplace health equity strategies [36:23] Bridging perceptions and reality   Notable Quotes [10:32] “My focus is on sustainability of a process that we're going to put in place to achieve health equity.” - Mauvareen [10:49] “If our health is not taken care of and we're not being advocated for or we don't know how to advocate for ourselves, our productivity will be shot.” - Gerald  [20:24] “Recognize and treat all atrocity survivors the same.” - Mauvareen [27:06]  “Once accurately diagnosed, there's no human being on planet Earth that can give it that.

2023 ended with an exciting biotech breakthrough for sickle cell patients. A gene-editing therapy using the revolutionary CRISPR technology provides new hope and options for the nearly 100,000 Americans with sickle cell disease. In this episode, we talk with the company behind one of the life-changing therapies, CASGEVY, and speak with two advocates for sickle cell patients. 

Are you aware of your sickle cell status? Many people aren't, yet understanding this crucial aspect of your health could make a life-saving difference. Sickle cell disease is a genetic condition that affects hemoglobin, the molecule in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen. It is a serious, lifelong illness that can cause pain, anemia, infections, and other health problems.  However, early detection and knowledge of your sickle cell status can significantly impact your health outcomes. People with sickle cell disease who are aware of their condition can take proactive steps to manage their health. Having this awareness would enable us to make informed decisions about family planning and seek specialized medical care when needed. By understanding our sickle cell status, we empower ourselves to navigate potential health challenges with greater resilience and informed support from healthcare professionals and community resources. As National Sickle Cell Day approaches, let's advocate for awareness, education, and support systems that empower individuals affected by sickle cell disease to live healthier and more fulfilled lives. Dr. Lametra Scott, PharmD, specializes in managing pharmacy operations and creating/executing programs for cost-effective pharmaceutical care. With a background in analyzing medication usage and operations, she conducts reviews of drug usage and evaluates patient medication histories for optimal treatment results. Her leadership involves collaborating with healthcare providers to recognize and address prescription trends, improve performance, and influence changes in prescribing practices. Dedicated to meeting objectives through efficient resource management, she also promotes health and wellness by supporting natural integrative medicine treatments. Showing a keen interest in education, she established a nonprofit organization focused on raising awareness and preventing sickle cell disease within the community. In this episode with Dr. Lametra Scott, PharmD, we will learn about the critical topic of sickle cell disease and trait, focusing on their implications, the importance of awareness, and the ongoing efforts to educate the masses about this genetic condition. The discussion centers on sickle cell disease and the importance of knowing one's genetic status, particularly in the context of family planning, athletic participation, and overall health. Dr. Scott brings a wealth of knowledge and passion to the discussion, emphasizing the broader impact of sickle cell disease on individuals and communities, especially within minority populations.   "Because of my own personal experiences in life and how God just threw me a curveball and I just decided to play with it, that is how Breaking the Sickle Cell Cycle was formed." – Dr. Lametra Scott, PharmD   Topics Covered: (00:00:49) Introducing our special guest, Dr. Lametra Scott, PharmD.

Meet Leia and Krison Burroughs, who are still in the midst of their family building journey. On today's show, Leia and Kriston tell Ali about how Kriston was diagnosed with sickle cell anemia when he was just a year old, and how they had no idea that the sickle cell drug, Hydroxyurea, would have a direct effect on his fertility. They also talk about microTESE surgery, the five hysteroscopies Leia had, and how the whole infertility journey has been hard on their marriage. They explain why they fired their OB, why they pivoted to embryo adoption, why they preferred doing that over donor sperm, and where they are now in the journey. Says Leia: "Did you know that 24% of men with Sickle Cell Anemia experience infertility due to the effects of the disease? Did you know that Sickle Cell Anemia affects about 100,000 people or that it occurs 1 in every 365 Black births in the U.S.?" Says Kriston, "Black folks need to start talking about our fertility treatments."  For more, follow IG: @ladibuddafly08 and @owtspokeneducator and @iamkristonb TOPICS COVERED IN THIS EPISODE: Infertility; Sickle cell anemia; Hydroxyurea; fibroids; embryo adoption; donor sperm; therapy; marriage issues; health insurance; black maternal healthcare; fertility grants EPISODE SPONSORS: WORK OF ART Children's Book about IVF https://www.infertileafgroup.com/books Do not miss Ali's children's book about IVF!
