Extractions: Structural Abnormalities of Hgb (Part 2) In sickle cell trait (Hgb SA) 25 - 45% of the hemoglobin is Hgb S; the remainder being Hgb A and as well as Hgb F and Hgb A2. No anemia and normal RBC morphology is the rule in sickle cell trait. Only two rare complications, hematuria and splenic infarction are associated with sickle trait. There is no risk from anesthesia, surgery, pregnancy, or strenuous physical activity. However, sickle cell trait has been associated with an extremely small increase in sudden death in individuals under severe stress (US Armed Forces study). Individuals with sickle cell trait have normal growth and development, normal life spans and should not be considered ill. Hb S may be combined with other defects of hemoglobin. Also frequent is SC disease. Mild anemia and splenomegaly is often present. The PBS shows numerous RBC targets and may show intracellular Hgb C 'crystals'. The MCHC is often increased due to loss of water. Larger amounts of Hgb S are made in SC disease than in sickle trait (SA). Patients with SC disease have increased viscosity of the blood causing a high incidence of proliferative retinopathy, painful aseptic nerosis of the femoral head (more than in SS disease), and acute chest syndrome.

Extractions: Department of Gastroenterology at the Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville. Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an inherited disorder caused by the abnormal properties conveyed to sickle red blood cells by the mutant sickle hemoglobin, Hb S. At the sixth position of the hemoglobin beta-chain, a valine is substituted for glutamic acid. This abnormality leads to polymerization of the hemoglobin when the oxygen saturation is lowered, resulting in red blood cell deformity, vaso-occlusion, ischemia, and infarction. Chronic hemolysis is also a consequence of the sickling phenomenon, particularly with homozygous HbS disease. Gastrointestinal complications are myriad and include conditions such as cholelithiasis, biliary sludge, colitis, and pancreatitis. These and other gastrointestinal-related conditions will be examined, particularly within the context of current biological insights. Pigmented gallstones are the result of the chronic hemolysis of the sickle cell disease. Studies reveal that close to 70% of patients develop gallstones, though the incidence is much lower in patients with HbSC and HbS-beta thalasemmia.

The anemia and pain associated with this blood disorder can be tough to bear, but it can really take a toll on small children and young adolescents trying to be "normal" in school. To get a handle on the disease and what teachers can do to comfort students who have it, Paul Sathrum of the NEA Health Information Network talked to Dr. Michael R. DeBaun, assistant professor of Pediatrics and Biostatistics at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Missouri. What is sickle cell disease?
