Researchers probe hidden heart risk in sickle cell patients
NCT ID NCT05583721
Summary
This study aims to understand why people with sickle cell disease often develop heart problems. Researchers will compare how blood flows to the heart during stress in three groups: young adults with sickle cell and heart stiffness, those with sickle cell without stiffness, and healthy individuals. The goal is to see if reduced blood flow is a key cause of heart damage in this condition.
