NR: Data not reported in the article. NS: Not significant. n/a: Not applicable. 
Range instead of total was provided for follow-up > 30d as the follow-up durations differ greatly between studies.
Results from clinical studies are not directly comparable. Information provided for educational purposes only.
*In Smolka 2016, small PVL causing significant hemolysis but no heart failure symptoms were an exclusion criteria; therefore, patients with hemolytic anemia only were not included. Total percentages may underrepresent the actual population with hemolytic anemia only and overrepresent the population with heart failure only.
