This results in hemolytic anemia and recurrent vaso-occlusion in the microvasculature due to increased red blood cell adhesion and retention. Acute vaso-occlusion causes severe pain in the musculoskeletal system, abdomen, and other areas. Large vessel stroke occurs in the setting of stenotic blood vessels due to chronic vessel wall injury. Hemoglobin S (HbS) is characterized by a single change in the amino acid sequence of the ?-globin chain and is responsible for creating the abnormal red cell morphology. Individuals who are heterozygous for the HbS gene generally have no symptoms or sequelae of SCD, but they are said to have sickle cell trait; ie, they are carriers of the HbS gene. Their offspring could be affected if the other parent is heterozygous or homozygous for the gene or carries another abnormal hemoglobin gene. The remainder of this chapter will focus on SCD that results from homozygous HbS. Risk Factors The disease occurs most often among people whose ancestry can be linked to sub-Saharan Africa, Central and South America, the Caribbean, India, and the Middle East and Mediterranean regions. According to the CDC, SCD affects up to 100,000 Americans.

In African Americans the prevalence of SCD is 1 in 500, while sickle cell trait is present in up to 1 in 12. Other prenatal tests may be routinely available in the future. Universal newborn screening by electrophoresis (or other diagnostic testing) is performed in every U.S. state. Sickle cell anemia is indicated by the presence of fetal hemoglobin (hemoglobin F) and hemoglobin S and an absence of hemoglobin A. Electrophoretic findings for sickle cell anemia are: Hemoglobin S at 85 to 90 (normally 0). Hemoglobin A at 0 (normally 95-98). Hemoglobin F at 2-15 (normally 0.8-2.0). Additional findings are likely to include a normochromic, normocytic anemia; reticulocytosis; and sickle cells (and other abnormal findings, including polychromasia and nucleated red blood cells visible on peripheral blood smear). Other findings consistent with hemolysis may also be present such as unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia, elevated LDH and low haptoglobin. Subsequent to diagnosis, patients should undergo periodic testing, which includes complete blood count (CBC), iron studies, liver function tests, and tests of renal function, such as urinalysis, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine. These data can be compared with those assessed during exacerbations to guide medical management. Treatment In the acute pain setting, analgesics, warm compresses, and oral and intravenous fluids are appropriate interventions. Preventive Strategies Comprehensive and multidisciplinary care is essential. Education of both patient and family may help prevent complications of the disease. Influenza, meningococcal and pneumococcal vaccines should routinely be used. Pneumococcal prophylaxis (oral penicillin V 125-250 mg twice daily) should be taken continuously by children with sickle cell anemia until age 5. Children with a history of splenectomy or severe pneumonia may need further prophylaxis. Folic acid should be taken in doses of 1 mg daily.
Additionally, an iron-free multivitamin is recommended to ensure adequate intake of nutrients that are commonly deficient in those with SCD. Iron overload and subsequent oxidative stress may cause depletion of antioxidant vitamins. Transcranial Doppler may identify children at risk for stroke. Assessment for chronic complications, including chronic lung and kidney disease, should be performed periodically, especially in older children and adults. For individuals who undergo multiple blood transfusions, screening for hepatitis C should be considered. Additionally, heat packs can provide additional pain relief. Cold therapies, such as ice, should be avoided. As pain increases, opioids of increasing strengths should be used. Severe pain typically requires hospitalization and continuous narcotic provision. Initial boluses with patient-controlled analgesia for subsequent pain control are appropriate strategies. Morphine sulfate and hydromorphone are first-line agents. Hydromorphone is more concentrated and therefore beneficial in fluid-restricted patients. Morphine synthetics, such as fentanyl, can also be used. Meperidine is not recommended. Ketorolac, as well as other NSAIDs, are not typically recommended for inpatient pain management. There is no further benefit of adding an NSAID to opioid treatment of vasooclusive pain, and NSAID use increases the risk of gastrointestinal and cardiovascular complications. Further, it can lead to sometimes irreversible renal failure, especially in those with pre-existing compromised renal status. Patients who have febrile episodes, even without other symptoms, should always be evaluated and the need for empiric broad-spectrum antibiotic coverage (e.g., ceftriaxone) should be considered. Depending on the severity of the fever and prophylactic penicillin status (in children), antibiotics can be administered intravenously or intramuscularly and on an inpatient or outpatient basis.
Meningitis, bacteremia, osteomyelitis, urinary tract infections, and acute chest syndrome require specific antibiotic regimens. Blood Transfusions Transfusions may be episodic or regularly scheduled and of the simple or exchange type. Exchange transfusions more effectively reduce the quantity of HbS erythrocytes and decrease the risk of iron overload. There is evidence that long-term simple transfusion therapy is effective in decreasing the risk of primary stroke in children when transcranial Doppler studies are abnormal and for secondary prevention in those who have experienced a stroke. Additionally, regular transfusions can be used in those with recurrent priapism, pulmonary hypertension, and recurrent acute chest syndrome. Higher hemoglobin levels can lead to hyperviscosity. Partial-exchange transfusions may be required during a severe acute complication (e.g., acute chest syndrome, multi-organ failure or acute stroke.). Transfusion therapy is not indicated for uncomplicated SCD pain events or asymptomatic anemia. Alloimmunization (antibody formation after blood transfusion) occurs in approximately 30 of SCD patients who undergo transfusion therapy. Other Treatments Long-term use of hydroxyurea reduces or prevents acute events and chronic complications of SCD. Hydroxyurea stimulates the production of hemoglobin F and, by various mechanisms, decreases vascular occlusion. The use of clotramizole (an anti-fungal medication) may improve SCD symptoms but more research is required. Hematopoietic cell transplantation is currently the only curative option for SCD patients but the use of this therapy is still limited. Gene therapy also has the potential to be curative but remains experimental. Children frequently hospitalized for sickle cell disease (SCD) commonly show poor linear growth, lean body mass, and reduced fat-free mass. For reasons that are poorly understood, many patients are deficient in essential micronutrients.
A diet emphasizing fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes will provide a greater proportion of essential nutrients than a typical Western diet, and appropriate supplementation (1-3 times the recommended intakes for most essential nutrients) can prevent deficiency and may decrease the likelihood of disease exacerbation. High-calorie, nutrient-dense diet. Adequate fluid consumption to maintain hydration. For patients with iron overload due to frequent transfusions, supplements containing iron should be avoided. Nutrition consultation for assessment, to advise patient regarding specific dietary recommendations, and to arrange follow-up as needed. Protein-calorie supplements, per nutrition consultant. What to Tell the Family Good nutrition can help safeguard healthy growth in children with sickle cell disease and may reduce the risk of complications in both children and adults. A registered dietitian can advise the patient and family on how to meet macronutrient and micronutrient needs. Supplemental nutrients may be required and ordered by the physician.

Pathological changes in the brain include atrophy of the cerebral cortex (particularly in the mesial temporal and temporoparietal lobes), the presence of neurofibrillary tangles and senile (amyloid) plaques, a loss of cholinergic neurons in the brain, and reduced activity of choline acetyltransferase (the enzyme responsible for acetylcholine production) in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Pathogenesis is not well understood but involves neurotoxicity, inflammation, and, likely, apoptosis. The disease typically progresses from mild memory impairment to severe cognitive loss with personality and behavioral changes. Risk is inversely proportional to the age of onset in a first-degree relative. Genetics.
Certain genetic abnormalities (particularly with the presenilin and amyloid precursor protein genes) place some individuals at high risk of early-onset AD. However, these represent only a small fraction of cases. More commonly, late-onset AD is associated with certain subtypes of apo E4, among other genes. There appears to be an association between elevated total or LDL cholesterol concentrations, particularly in middle age, and development of AD. A definitive diagnosis of AD is not possible in normal clinical practice. Current evaluation of the patient with suspected AD focuses on identifying potentially reversible disorders that can produce cognitive deficits. Routine neuroimaging, particularly magnetic resonance imaging, can help rule out certain causes of memory loss, such as vascular dementia, normal pressure hydrocephalus, chronic subdural hematomas, and brain tumors. Occasionally, such conditions are identified even in the absence of other clinical indicators. Therefore, neuroimaging should be considered in all cases of progressive cognitive deterioration. Tests of potential metabolic abnormalities (e.g., hypothyroidism, vitamin B12 deficiency, electrolyte abnormalities) and infection (e.g., neurosyphilis) should be included in the workup. Occasionally, lumbar puncture may be needed, particularly in atypical cases (such as those associated with somnolence or confusion at the outset) or those with rapid progression. Electroencephalography, which is usually normal early in AD, may provide useful clues to alternative diagnosis in unusual cases. Severe sleep disorders, disorders of liver and renal function, and side effects of various medications can produce cognitive dysfunction, as can depression (pseudodementia). Neuropsychiatric testing may be useful to aid in the diagnosis of AD or to evaluate its progression. Such testing may be particularly helpful if the presentation is atypical.
However, because treatment is generally based on symptoms, biopsy is not commonly performed. Memantine, an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist along with galantamine, may slow the loss of mental and physical function. Trans fats are found in many snack foods and, in traces, in dairy products. As noted above, midlife hypercholesterolemia is associated with risk for AD. It may be prudent to choose supplements that omit these minerals. Physical and occupational therapy consultation for home safety evaluation and needs assessment. What to Tell the Family A diet low in saturated fat, trans fats, and cholesterol, moderate in iron and copper, and high in dietary fiber and vitamins E and C may reduce the risk of AD, in addition to helping prevent other age-related debilitating diseases. It is not yet clear that diet changes can alter the course of AD that has already been diagnosed. Safety precautions for AD patients are always important. Connection with social services or a support group may also help ease the burden of care for a person with AD. Although routine genetic testing is not typically recommended, family members may want to be tested for the presence of the apo E4 allele. At minimum, they should be encouraged to mitigate their future risk of AD by noting the above recommendations. References Larson EB, Shadlen MF, Wang L, et al.
