Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 28-May-2020
Thalassaemia is a recessively-inherited blood disorder that leads to anaemia of varying severity. In those affected by the more severe forms, regular blood transfusions are required which may lead to iron overload. Accumulated iron from blood transfusions - Growth monitoring in children
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Nov-2008
Growth monitoring is widely accepted and strongly supported by health professionals, and is a standard component of community paediatric services throughout the world.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Apr-2019
Hypertension (high blood pressure) in pregnancy carries a high risk of maternal morbidity and mortality. Although antihypertensive drugs are commonly used, they have adverse effects on mothers and fetuses. Guided imagery is a non-pharmacological technique - Guided tissue regeneration for periodontal infra-bony defects
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 29-May-2019
Conventional treatment of destructive periodontal (gum) disease arrests the disease but does not usually regain the bone support or connective tissue lost in the disease process.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 27-Aug-2014
Ischaemic stroke interrupts the flow of blood to part of the brain. Haemodilution is thought to improve the flow of blood to the affected areas of the brain and thus reduce infarct size. - Haemoglobin and haematocrit targets for the anaemia of chronic kidney disease
