Sickle cell disease and H3Africa: enhancing genomic research on cardiovascular diseases in African patients

BACKGROUND: Sickle cell disease (SCD) has a high prevalence in sub-Saharan Africa. There are several cardiovascular phenotypes in SCD that contribute to its morbidity and mortality. DISCUSSION: SCD is characterised by marked clinical variability, with genetic factors playing key modulating roles. St...
