I have been reading so much and acquired so much knowledge about SCT and was so moved by reading and knowing about the SCT carriers and their sufferings and i was been experiencing same issues in our family too. just I was just wondering whether there are any researches researches conducted on sickle cell traits and its carriers and for resolving their problems
Are there any researches conducted on ... - Sickle Cell Society
Are there any researches conducted on sickle cell traits and its carriers ? and for resolving their problems
Well there is research and there are websites that talk about sickle cell trait but there will is little to no information about sickle cell trait symptoms that occurs everyday or on the daily for those that experience symptoms with trait. What I have noticed as I have searched online is that most of the websites that talk about people like us with the trait only talk about how rare it is or the researched they have done doesn't seem to talk the symptoms those with the trait they have on an everyday life.
The research out there only states that it is an small percentage of the sickle cell trait people that face things, the research also states that it is uncommon for us to have symptoms and only under rare conditions. This research needs to be updated because an lot of us around the world don't fit into an box and like myself have symptoms everyday. Also there isn't any research that has been done that talks about those with trait and blood transfusions, chest pain, joint pain. The research needs to be upgraded also I hope to see research on sickle cell trait and the blood transfusions they have to get.
Hope this information helps you.
