Serum ferritin level changes in children with sickle cell disease on chronic blood transfusion are non-linear, and are associated with iron load and liver injury
Blood, 09/01/09

Adamkiewicz TV et al. – Although chronic blood transfusion is increasingly indicated in patients with sickle cell disease, measuring resulting iron–overload remains a challenge. Children without viral hepatitis enrolled in two trials for stroke prevention were examined for iron–overload. To determine accurately iron–overload in patients with intermediately elevated SF levels, other methods of iron assessment are required.
