Background: Microalbuminuria, an early indicator of kidney damage in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) patients, is linked to a heightened risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adulthood. This study investigates the determinants of microalbuminuria in paediatric SCD patients in South-South Nigeria.
Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted over six months at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital, Nigeria, involving 60 children with [HbSS genotype, SCD] in a steady state.
