ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Sickle Cell Anemia (SCA) is an autosomal recessive haemoglobinopathy with high morbidity and mortality. Global survival of sickle patients is increased due to advances in management; and subsequently, prevalence of chronic complications including renal manifestations also increased. Therefore, early detection and management of these complications is mandatory. This study aimed to investigate the estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR), proteinuria and serum uric acid as markers of renal involvement in Sudanese sickle adults and association between these parameters and clinical severity score of sickle cell disease.

METHODS: Cross-sectional hospital-based study included thirty-two adult Sudanese patients diagnosed with SCA and twenty-three as controls. Written informed consent was obtained from each participant. Blood and urine samples were colle cted. Severity score was calculated using Bios online calculator and eGFR was calculated using Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula without adjustment for ethnicity. Associations between the severity score and renal parameters were tested using unpaired T test and Mann Whitney test for normally and non-normally distributed data and correlations between variables were tested using SPSS version 23.

RESULTS: Protein/Creatinine Ratio (PCR) was significantly higher (p-value < 0.001) in sickle cell anaemia group compared to controls. Hyper-filtration and Hyperuricemia were manifested in 75% and 6.3% of SCA group respectively. There was no association between the severity score and renal manifestations in the SCA group.

CONCLUSIONS: Hyper-filtration and proteinuria were the most prevalent renal manifestations in SCA group. Further studies are recommended to determine the predictors of renal complications and ensure early management of su ch complications.
