and HIV have different illnesses than
patients who have SCD- or HIV-only.
The proposed study will seek to
understand the risk of HIV in the SCD
population, describe HIV outcomes in
patients with SCD and compare SCD
complications between HIV-positive
and HIV-negative patients with SCD
using the infrastructure established by
the REDS–III SCD Cohort study.
The limited studies focused on HIV in
SCD have suggested that HIV may not
occur as frequently in patients with SCD
as in people who do not have SCD.
While it has been hypothesized that
perhaps SCD pathophysiology has a
unique effect on HIV infection or
replication, none of the studies have
adequately measured risk factors for
HIV in patients with SCD. The first
objective of the proposed study is to
compare HIV risk factors between 150
patients with SCD (cases) randomly
selected from the REDS–III SCD Cohort
study and 150 individuals without SCD
(controls) from a demographically
similar population. An assessment that
has been well validated in previous
studies has been modified for the SCD
population and will be used to collect
data regarding HIV risk behaviors. The
second objective of the proposed study
will seek to enroll approximately 25
patients with SCD and HIV who consent
to have detailed information regarding
their diseases retrieved from their
medical records. This will allow for an
in-depth evaluation of how patients
with both diseases fare. Additionally,
patients who have SCD but not HIV will
be compared to patients who have both
diseases to better understand how one
disease affects the other disease.
Information on the HIV-negative
patients with SCD has already been
collected because they participated in
the REDS–III SCD Cohort study. This
study will provide critical information
to guide the management and future
research for patients with HIV and SCD
in Brazil, the United States, and
worldwide.

Study-III (REDS-III) program conducts research focused on the safety of
the blood supply, the patients who are in need of transfusions, and the
epidemiology of transfusion-transmissible infections such as human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a blood
disorder that affects thousands of people in the United States and
Brazil. Many patients with SCD need to be chronically transfused with
red blood cells and the REDS-III research program has established in
Brazil a cohort of patients with SCD to study transfusion outcomes and
infectious diseases such as HIV in the SCD population.
Sickle cell disease predominantly affects persons with sub-Saharan
Africa and other malaria-endemic regions ancestry because people who
carry one sickle cell disease gene (you need 2 to have sickle cell
disease) have a survival advantage for malaria. Sub-Saharan Africa,
where most people with SCD in the world live, remains one of the
regions most severely affected by HIV, with nearly 1 in every 20 adults
living with the virus. In the United States, HIV also
disproportionately affects persons with African ancestry. Despite the
diseases' occurrence in similar populations and the fact that both HIV
and SCD are independent predictors of outcomes such as stroke, there is
a lack of data to evaluate if patients with SCD and HIV have different
illnesses than patients who have SCD- or HIV-only. The proposed study
will seek to understand the risk of HIV in the SCD population, describe
HIV outcomes in patients with SCD and compare SCD complications between
HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients with SCD using the
infrastructure established by the REDS-III SCD Cohort study.
The limited studies focused on HIV in SCD have suggested that HIV
