Management of Sickle Cell Disease

Steinberg, Martin H.·1999·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

One of every 600 black people in the United States has sickle cell anemia. In addition, sickle cell–hemoglobin C disease and sickle cell–β-thalassemia, which are other common genotypes of sickle cell disease, together are as common as sickle cell anemia. Sickle hemoglobin (hemoglobin S, α2 β2S) accounts for over half the hemoglobin in patients with these disorders. Eight percent of black Americans are heterozygous carriers of the sickle cell trait; about 40 percent of their hemoglobin is hemoglobin S. They do not have anemia and need neither treatment nor occupational restrictions. About 5 percent have hematuria at . . .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
