| Description | Sickle cell anaemia is the most common monogenetic disorder currently prevailing worldwide. The prevalence of the disease is high among the people of Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean. Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is one of the neglected health problems in India. Since the early 20th century, scientific and clinical research on sickle cell disease has resulted in the creation of a vast repository of scientific evidence on the disease. In the Indian context, significant research leads have been there on the disease guiding the programmatic directions towards abating sickle cell anaemia in the states and the country. This report sets out to review the state of the art of research in the field of sickle cell anaemia in India, and to consider how existing research-based information contained in the publications can influence policy formulation and managerial decision-making towards abating sickle cell anaemia in tribal areas, especially in Odisha. The sickle gene is widespread in tribal populations in most of the tribal-dominated states of the country towards which sickle cell anaemia control programs and initiatives have been operating in different states. In this context, this compendium of evidence is an initiative towards contributing to the information need of policymakers and implementers by compiling, summarizing and analysing empirical studies on sickle cell disease in India. Mapping of Sickle cell pockets in Odisha through GIS mapping helps in visualizing the state. The various blocks of Tribal sub plan areas districts have high burden of sickle cell cases, and this report has documented the sickle cell disease and sickle cell trait in Odisha. The motivation for this report is that in different ways, policymakers, managers, politicians and the general public have profound concerns about the efficiency of the initiatives taken towards addressing the increasing load of sickle cell anaemia. The contents in this report may be useful for improving policy and managerial decisions to control and abate sickle cell anaemia. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
