It means "Who suffered from porphyria?"
Porphyria is a group of disorders caused by abnormalities in the chemical steps leading to the production of heme, a substance that is important in the body. Multiple enzymes are needed for the body to produce heme. If any one of the enzymes is abnormal, the process cannot continue and the intermediate products, porphyrin or its precursors, may build up and be excreted in the urine and stool.
