Acute anemia linked to silent strokes in children
eurekalert.org — “Symptomless strokes occur in about 20 percent of children with sickle cell disease when their red blood cell levels severely drop. These silent strokes also occur in about 7 percent of hospitalized children without sickle cell who have severe drops in hemoglobin. Acute anemic events could help account for the high prevalence of silent strokes in children with sickle cell disease.” View full resource at eurekalert.org
