Summary

This study follows 750 people with sickle cell disease who have received curative therapies (like stem cell transplants) to see how their heart, lung, and kidney health changes over time compared to those on standard treatment. The goal is to understand if these therapies improve or worsen organ damage, helping patients and doctors make better treatment decisions. Researchers will also look for genetic clues that might predict good or bad outcomes.
