Cross-sectional analysis identifies disease severity patterns in Gambian children with sickle cell anemia, suggesting key predictors.

Most Gambian children with sickle cell anemia exhibited mild to moderate disease, with 67.1% classified as mild.
Gender and frequencies of complications significantly correlated with disease severity, highlighting important predictors.
A structured proforma was utilized to collect clinical and demographic data, alongside a validated clinical scoring system.
The findings indicate a need for early diagnosis and better access to treatment options in managing sickle cell anemia.

Makalo et al. (2025) studied this question.
