These investigators also stated that maintenance of NID by depleting the levels via phlebotomy in patients with gout induces either complete or marked reduction in incidence and severity of gout flares in humans. The combination of hydroxyurea and phlebotomy is not as effective as "standard" transfusion and chelation in preventing secondary stroke and iron over-load. Summarell CC, Sheehan VA. Adjarov et al (1984) reported that in 74 patients with porphyria cutanea tarda, 11 (14.9 %) cases of beta-thalassemia were found. In a prospective, randomized, 1-year clinical trial that compared the safety and efficacy of the once-daily oral iron chelator deferasirox versus phlebotomy for the treatment of iron overload in children with beta-thalassemia major following HSCT. However, the poor symmetry of funnel plot suggested a risk of bias. ol.numberedList LI { Valenti and colleagues (2012) stated that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), defined by excessive liver fat deposition related to the metabolic syndrome, is a leading cause of progressive liver disease, for which accurate non-invasive staging systems and effective treatments are still lacking. # font-weight: bold; Target levels of phlebotomy should be a ferritin level of 50 to 100 g/L.
