Scatter diagram showing the correlation between the rates of decline in serum GGT, ferritin, and AFP levels or the total volume of blood removed and those of serum ALT levels after phlebotomy. (a) The rates of decline in ALT levels were correlated with those in GGT ( , ). (b) The rates of decline in ALT levels were correlated with those in ferritin ( , ). (c) The rates of decline in ALT levels were correlated with those in AFP levels ( , ). (d) The rates of decline in ALT levels were correlated with those in the total volume of blood removed , ).
