Description
Josué Louokdom Simo and colleagues study liver signs in sickle cell disease in a 2026 study in Cameroon. Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disorder that can harm many organs, including the liver. Over four months at Bafoussam Regional Hospital, the team compared 94 patients with the disease to 73 healthy controls.
Liver enzyme levels were higher in patients across the board. One enzyme, AST, was raised in 72.3 percent of patients and in no controls. Albumin, a blood protein made by the liver, was low in 38.3 percent of patients. The authors link the pattern to red blood cell breakdown.
