Description
Mohammed Somaili reviews the unfinished story of kidney damage in sickle cell disease in a 2026 paper. The misshapen red cells of the disease batter the kidneys for years, yet this complication hides: standard kidney tests can look fine while damage is well advanced. It quietly drives illness and early death.
The review gathers what is known about spotting the damage early and about the evolving treatment shelf, from the staple drug hydroxyurea to blood-cell boosters and dialysis. Then it names the gaps plainly: better early markers, trials aimed at the kidney itself, and care pathways that catch the disease before the standard numbers move.
