Mathematical modeling of SCD: a literature review.
Review in Journal of sickle cell disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
SCD is a family of genetic blood disorders that affects over 20 million people worldwide. SCD complications include pain, anemia, and early death. The hallmark cause of medical visits for people with SCD is pain, initially in the form of acute, severe, vaso-occlusive crises stemming from obstructed blood vessels and a plethora of underlying disordered biological mechanisms. Vaso-occlusive crises are unpredictable and are often associated with acute disability and/or hospitalization. Both vaso-occlusive crises and longer-term, chronic sickle cell pain can contribute to multi-system organ damage and eventually early death. Many of the disordered biological mechanisms of SCD, and how they relate to painful outcomes, are not well understood. Mathematical modeling can be a useful tool to study and analyze such disordered SCD biological phenomena: biodynamics, vaso-occlusion, and responses to SCD drug and gene therapy. In this review, we summarize the variety of mathematical modeling methods used to study SCD and provide specific examples of how mathematical modeling contributes new understandings of SCD.
