Description
In his Diffusion article from the November/December issue of The Hematologist, Dr. Michael DeBaun (Vanderbilt University) discusses the need for further research in efforts to update and implement universal procedures to prevent unnecessary death and acute illness for college and high school athletes with SCD. He covered the article by Dr. Lianne Kurina (Stanford University) and colleagues titled “Sickle cell trait, rhabdomyolysis, and mortality among U.S. Army soldiers.” Dr. Kurina provides her insight on the issue based on her research program, which focuses on the physical and mental health of active-duty U.S. Army soldiers.
