Liver involvement in a large cohort of patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria or X-linked protoporphyria. [PDF]
Background: Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) and X-linked protoporphyria (XLP) are characterized by the accumulation of protoporphyrin in the marrow, erythrocytes, plasma, skin, and liver, and present clinically with painful cutaneous phototoxicity.

A Severe Reaction After Phototherapy in a Neonate With X-Linked Protoporphyria. [PDF]
Protoporphyria is a subtype of porphyria characterized primarily by painful phototoxic skin reactions after light exposure at specific wavelengths. Historically, phototherapy is not contraindicated in patients with protoporphyria since there have not been any reports of phototoxic reactions.

Burden of illness and unmet needs in patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria and X-linked protoporphyria: A large US nationwide claims analysis. [PDF]
Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) and X-linked protoporphyria (XLP) are rare genetic disorders caused by the accumulation of the toxic metabolite protoporphyrin IX, which results in painful phototoxicity upon sunlight exposure. Despite their significant impact on quality of life and potential for serious complications, treatment options for EPP/XLP ...

Inherited microcytic anemias due to disorders of iron and heme metabolism: An updated clinical review [PDF]
Abstract Microcytic anemia is among the most common hematological abnormalities in clinical practice and is usually attributable to iron deficiency, thalassemia traits, or anemia of inflammation. A small but clinically important subset of patients, however, has inherited disorders of iron metabolism or heme synthesis presenting with persistent ...
