Plasma Lipids and Lipoproteins in Sickle Cell Disease Patients in the Northern West Bank, Palestine
Background. Lipid metabolism may be altered in red cell genetic disorders. The erythrocyte and plasma lipids are defected which may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. In the present study, we hypothesized a possible link between severity of anemia and altered lipid profile in SCD. Methods....
