Background/aim: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) are clonal bone marrow disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis. They are classified based on morphology and genetic alterations, with SF3B1 variants linked to favorable prognosis and MECOM rearrangements associated with poor outcomes. The combined effects of these alterations remain unclear.

Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) disrupts oxygen transport due to the abnormal shape and rigidity of red blood cells, leading to hemolysis. Hemolysis, a major co-morbidity in SCD, is indicated by elevated levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Arginine depletion, which is essential for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, contributes to various complications in SCD.

Hydroxyurea has historically been the sole disease-modifying medication (DMM) for sickle cell disease (SCD). However, 3 newer DMMs, L-glutamine, voxelotor, and crizanlizumab, were approved for children and adolescents with SCD since 2017. Despite their emergence, treatment barriers, including access, affordability, and nonadherence, limit the optimization of DMMs in the clinical setting.

The mortality burden of sickle cell anemia (SCA) is centered in sub-Saharan Africa. In addition to a lack of systematic programs for early diagnosis, access to disease-modifying treatments is limited to only a few urban centers. Providing a safe and adequate blood supply is a major challenge, heightening mortality from SCA-associated complications that require urgent blood transfusion and making the delivery of regular transfusion therapy for stroke prevention nonfeasible.
