  • Title: Sickle trait and its association with birthweight and urinary tract infections in pregnancy.
    Author: Baill IC, Witter FR.
    Journal: Int J Gynaecol Obstet; 1990 Sep; 33(1):19-21. PubMed ID: 1974527.
    Abstract:
    The objective of this retrospective case control study was to compare pregnant women with sickle trait hemoglobin to their normal hemoglobin counterparts. Sickle trait was associated with a significant increase in bacteriuria (13.0% vs 9.0%) and pyelonephritis (2.1% vs 1.4%). No difference was seen in birthweight between the two groups.
