Abstract
Anaemia causes lower oxygen transport to tissues, interfering with normal physical development and may interfere with exercise and sports in thalassemia and Sickle-Cell-Disease (SCD) l. Moreover, in SCD, the abnormal haemoglobin alters the erythrocyte shape and leads to pulmonary parenchymal damage, impaired vascular function and micro vascular complications. However, we now accept that, with regular blood transfusions and efficient oral or parenteral chelation modalities, many patients lead a normal development and life with little or no change from the lifestyle of their unaffected friends, although there are cognitive and emotional factors leading behaviour for participation in the social life and exercise, as studied by many scientists in Italy, United Kingdom, Greece and India.贫血导致组织供氧不足，妨碍身体的正常发育，并可能干扰地中海贫血和镰状细胞病（SCD）患者的体育运动。更严重的是，在镰状细胞病患者体内，异常血红蛋白能改变红细胞形态，造成肺薄壁组织损害、血管功能损伤，并引起微血管并发症。 然而，意大利、英国、希腊和印度的多位科学家的研究表明：尽管认知因子和情感因子是参加社会生活和运动的主导行为，但只要患者定期输血和采用高效的口服或非口服螯合疗法，很多人都可以正常发育和生活，与未受感染的人群并无大的区别。
