Abstract
Purpose Sickle cell disease (SCD) comprises a complex group of hematologic disorders that are collectively the most common monogenic disorder and are associated with increased risk of intensive care unit admission (ICU). The purpose of this study is to investigate factors that predict admission of adult patients with SCD to the ICU. Patients and Methods This was a cross-sectional study that enrolled adult patients with SCD from Saudi Arabia. Results A total of 107 patients with SCD, with a median age 31.9±12.1 years, were evaluated retrospectively. Regarding predictors of ICU admission, patients who indicated a history of blood transfusions were at 8.047-fold higher risk of ICU admission (OR=8.047; 95% CI=2.392-27.07; p=0.001). Patients who started hydroxyurea were at least 3.071 times more likely to be admitted than those who did not (OR=3.071; 95% CI=1.164-8.104; p=0.023). We also observed three or more hospitalizations per year to be associated with increased risk of ICU admission (OR=3.393; 95% CI=1.285-8.960; p=0.014), with those making 3 to 5 visits annually having at least 10.4 times higher risk (OR=10.38; 95% CI=10.098-98.19; p=0.041) and those with 6 to 10 ER admissions having 18 times higher risk (OR=18.00; 95% CI=2.149-150.8; p=0.008). Finally, patients with high WBC were predicted to have at least 3.34 times higher risk of ICU admission (OR=3.337; 95% CI=1.131-9.846; p=0.029). Conclusion SCD is a multi-systemic disease associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Recognition of high-risk features in patients helps to eliminate subjectivity in ICU referral decision. Frequent hospitalization and emergency visits, multiple blood transfusions, and elevated white blood cell count were significantly associated with a higher rate of ICU admission despite hydroxyurea usage.

Abstract
Little is known about patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who require intensive care unit (ICU) admission. The goals of this study were to assess outcomes in patients admitted to the ICU for acute complications of SCD and to identify factors associated with adverse outcomes. This multicenter retrospective study included consecutive adults with SCD admitted to one of 17 participating ICUs. An adverse outcome was defined as death or a need for life-sustaining therapies (non-invasive or invasive ventilation, vasoactive drugs, renal replacement therapy, and/or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation). Factors associated with adverse outcomes were identified by mixed multivariable logistic regression. We included 488 patients admitted in 2015-2017. The main reasons for ICU admission were acute chest syndrome (47.5%) and severely painful vaso-occlusive event (21.3%). Sixteen (3.3%) patients died in the ICU, mainly of multi-organ failure following a painful vaso-occlusive event or sepsis. An adverse outcome occurred in 81 (16.6%; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 13.3%-19.9%) patients. Independent factors associated with adverse outcomes were low mean arterial blood pressure (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.98; 95% CI 0.95-0.99; p = 0.027), faster respiratory rate (aOR, 1.09; 95% CI 1.05-1.14; p < 0.0001), higher haemoglobin level (aOR, 1.22; 95% CI 1.01-1.48; p = 0.038), impaired creatinine clearance at ICU admission (aOR, 0.98; 95% CI 0.97-0.98; p < 0.0001), and red blood cell exchange before ICU admission (aOR, 5.16; 95% CI 1.16-22.94; p = 0.031). Patients with SCD have a substantial risk of adverse outcomes if they require ICU admission. Early ICU admission should be encouraged in patients who develop abnormal physiological parameters.

A locus on chromosome 5 shows African ancestry-limited association with alloimmunization in sickle cell disease. Blood Adv 2019; 2:3637-3647. [PMID: 30578281 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2018020594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2018] [Accepted: 11/08/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Red blood cell (RBC) transfusion remains a critical therapeutic intervention in sickle cell disease (SCD); however, the apparent propensity of some patients to regularly develop RBC alloantibodies after transfusion presents a significant challenge to finding compatible blood for so-called alloimmunization responders. Predisposing genetic loci have long been thought to contribute to the responder phenomenon, but to date, no definitive loci have been identified. We undertook a genome-wide association study of alloimmunization responder status in 267 SCD multiple transfusion recipients, using genetic estimates of ancestral admixture to bolster our findings. Analyses revealed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on chromosomes 2 and 5 approaching genome-wide significance (minimum P = 2.0 × 10-8 and 8.4 × 10-8, respectively), with local ancestry analysis demonstrating similar levels of admixture in responders and nonresponders at implicated loci. Association at chromosome 5 was nominally replicated in an independent cohort of 130 SCD transfusion recipients, with meta-analysis surpassing genome-wide significance (rs75853687, P meta = 6.6 × 10-9), and this extended to individuals forming multiple (>3) alloantibodies (P meta = 9.4 × 10-5). The associated variant is rare outside of African populations, and orthogonal genome-wide haplotype analyses, contingent on local ancestry, revealed genome-wide significant sharing of a ∼60-kb haplotype of African ancestry at the chromosome 5 locus (Bayes Factor = 4.95). This locus overlaps a putative cis-acting enhancer predicted to regulate transcription of ADRA1B and the lncRNA LINC01847, both members of larger ontologies associated with immune regulation. Our findings provide potential insights to the pathophysiology underlying the development of alloantibodies and implicate non-RBC ancestry-limited loci in the susceptibility to alloimmunization.
