DOI: 10.1016/j.oooo.2019.02.070
Abstract: Sickle cell disease causes vascular microinfarcts that lead to multi-organs alterations including dental involvements. Teeth, oral structures, and maxillofacial bones are affected. Dental alterations of oral and maxillofacial bones are of anatomical, radiographical, and structural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17474086.2022.2043743
Abstract: ABSTRACT Objectives Blood pressure (BP) values ≥120/70 mmHg considerably increase the risk of pulmonary hypertension and renal dysfunction in Sickle Cell Disease (CSD) patients and ultimately increased morbidity and mortality. This has led to the… read more here.
