Sickle cell breakthrough: can curative therapies heal damaged organs?

This study looks at adults with sickle cell disease to see how their heart, brain, kidneys, liver, and lungs change after treatments meant to cure the disease. Researchers will compare people getting curative therapy (like a bone marrow transplant or gene therapy) with those who are not. Participants undergo tests like MRIs, blood work, and lung function tests at the start and again after two years.
