Clinical and laboratory factors associated with splenic dysfunction among patients with sickle cell disease in a malaria endemic region
BACKGROUND: Although loss of splenic function is the expected natural course for individuals with sickle cell disease (SCD), factors such as high HbF and coexistence of alpha thalassemia may ameliorate this process. We evaluated factors associated with two surrogate markers of spleen dysfunction, na...
