Sickle cell disease: new opportunities and challenges in Africa.

Sickle cell disease: new opportunities and challenges in Africa.

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most common genetic causes of illness and death in the world. This is a review of SCD in Africa, which bears the highest burden of disease. The first section provides an introduction to the molecular basis of SCD and the pathophysiological mechanism of selecte...
