Coagulation studies were carried out in 117 Jamaicans with homo‐zygous sickle‐cell
disease in the steady state, and 40 local controls. The patients had significantly higher factor …

The cause of the increased factor VIII value may be fever, stress, and infections which are
common complications during crisis. The changes in factor V and factor VIII values observed …

Seventeen parameters of coagulation and fibrinolysis were measured in 33 patients with
sickle cell disease; 30 were tested in steady state (SS) and 19 in crisis (Cr). There were 16 …

Coagulation studies were performed in 52 patients with sickle cell disease during
asymptomatic periods and during episodes of crisis and infection. Platelet counts averaged …

Abnormalities of coagulation and fibrinolysis were studied in a group of 28 children and
young adults with homozygous sickle cell disease (SCD), either in the steady state (n= 12) …

A prospective controlled study was undertaken to investigate the haemostatic and
coagulation status of 18 adult subjects in the steady state of sickle cell anaemia (SCA), using …

A study of fibrinolytic activity in sickle-cell patients during asymptomatic periods has shown a
normal fibrinolytic response to exercise and local heat to the arm. During vasoocclusive …

Thrombosis has frequently been described in pathologic specimens from patients with sickle
cell disease, but the contribution of this process to disease pathophysiology during life has …

Red‐cell characteristics were studied in the steady state in three sickle‐cell syndromes,
homozygous sickle‐cell disease (SS), sickle‐cell/haemoglobin‐C disease (SC), and sickle …

Coagulation activity and whole‐blood viscosity were measured in the steady state, and
serially during painful crisis, in eight patients with sickle‐cell anaemia. Platelet and …
