Official title
A Feasibility Study on the Use of Plant Based Omega-3-Fatty Acids (Flaxseed) to Improve Inflammation Driven Pain Outcomes in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Pain and many adverse outcomes occurring in sickle cell disease are inflammatory driven. Recent data has shown that gut dysbiosis is present in individuals with sickle cell disease. Gut dysbiosis has been linked to inflammation in certain diseases. Omega -3-fatty acids (fish oil) has been shown to improve pain outcomes in individuals with sickle cell disease, but its acceptance is variable. The aim of this study is to determine if a plant-based omega-3-fatty acids will be more acceptable and also improve outcomes in individuals with sickle cell disease
