Abstract

Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) are considered to be at high risk for complications from influenza infection despite minimal published data that characterize the burden of influenza in this population. Our objectives were to (1) estimate the rate of influenza-related hospitalizations (IRHs) among children with SCD, (2) compare this rate with rates of children with cystic fibrosis (CF) and children with neither SCD nor CF, and (3) explore mechanisms that underlie these potentially preventable hospitalizations. We analyzed hospitalizations from 4 states (California, Florida, Maryland, and New York) across 2 influenza seasons (2003-2004 and 2004-2005) from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project State Inpatient Databases. We included hospitalizations with a discharge diagnosis code for influenza in a child <18 years of age. We used census data and disease prevalence estimates to calculate denominators and compare rates of IRH among children with SCD, CF, and neither disease. There were 7896 pediatric IRHs during the 2 influenza seasons. Of these, 159 (2.0%) included a co-occurring diagnosis of SCD. Annual rates of IRHs were 112 and 2.0 per 10 000 children with and without SCD, respectively, across both seasons. Childre...Continue Reading

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
