A new population-based study led by the California Sickle Cell Data Collection—an initiative of PHI's @trackingca.bsky.social —reveals that people born with #SickleCellTrait (SCT), the carrier status for #SickleCellDisease, may face underrecognized health risks, especially in childhood.
In the setting of pregnancy, patients with #sicklecelltrait appeared more likely to experience pyelonephritis/#UTI than women without SCT. Reported in @ash.hematology.org journal Blood Portfolio.
