One in three patients had low vitamin D and there was increased bone resorption and reduced bone formation. Correlations between different parameters revealed a potential role of osteocalcin, hemoglobin (Hb) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as prognostic markers for bone health, in the setting of chronic hemolysis.

The degree of hemolysis determi
