Considering these benefits, hydroxyurea therapy can be initiated in children as young as two years of age, following a comprehensive evaluation... and it is given lifelong in some cases with close monitoring... here is a video actually on hydroxurea that will help th-cam.com/video/sjenXCChVOU/w-d-xo.html
Both entities can manifest as pulmonary opacities on chest x-ray, necessitating a comprehensive clinical approach that incorporates history, physical examination, and potentially additional investigations. Challenges in Chest X-ray Differentiation: Overlapping Radiographic Features: Both ACS and pneumonia can cause airspace consolidation, appearing as white opacities that obscure underlying lung architecture on chest x-ray. Limited Specificity: Chest x-ray findings lack the specificity to definitively distinguish between the two conditions. Suggestive Radiographic Clues (Acknowledging Limitations): Distribution of Opacities: ACS may favor consolidation in the lower lobes, whereas pneumonia can involve any lobe. However, this is not a definitive distinction, and exceptions occur. Clinical Context: If a patient with a known history of sickle cell disease presents with new pulmonary opacities and respiratory symptoms, a high index of suspicion for ACS is warranted. I hope that helps

How do you distinguish ACS from PNA on chest x-ray?
Both entities can manifest as pulmonary opacities on chest x-ray, necessitating a comprehensive clinical approach that incorporates history, physical examination, and potentially additional investigations.

Overlapping Radiographic Features: Both ACS and pneumonia can cause airspace consolidation, appearing as white opacities that obscure underlying lung architecture on chest x-ray.
