Rationale for change
Can we change the verb "reduce" to "prevent" or something similar - reduce doesn't make as much sense here - a bit confusing
Rejection reason
Means the same thing; reduce the number of crises

Hydroxyurea stimulates NO expression, which leads to a rise in cGMP which activates gamma-globulin synthesis for HbF (which actively inhibits the polymerization of HbS)
Microvascular effects (from increased HbF)
1) Reduced platelets and WBC →
2) Reduced endothelial adhesion and activation →
3) Reduced microparticles and thrombosis →
4) Decreased of vasoconstriction
Red blood cells effects (from increased HbF)
A) HbS polymerization is decreased →
B) Reduced RBCS membrane deterioration →
C) Reduced hemolysis →
D) Raise haemoglobin
NB 2,3,4 ⇄ B,C
The end result is increased oxygenation to tissues and decreased inflammation
