Specific thresholds for ferritin are used to detect iron deficiency and overload in different age groups. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 42% of children less than 5 years of age and 40% of pregnant women worldwide are anaemic.
23 Φεβ 2017 · Ferritin reflects total body iron stores. Iron deficiency is the only clinical situation associated with extremely low values of ferritin. Ferritin declines gradually during pregnancy, reaches a nadir during weeks 35 to 38, and increases during the month before delivery.
24 Ιαν 2020 · Overall, serum ferritin, if available, should be used in conjunction with hemoglobin concentration to more precisely define iron status in pregnancy. 42. Other iron biomarkers show promise in refining the diagnosis of iron deficiency in pregnant women.
9 Δεκ 2023 · In terms of screening recommendations, five guidelines recommend screening with ferritin in addition to a full blood count in pregnancy, two recommend selective screening with ferritin for at risk groups only, and one guideline suggests using ferritin where feasible.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) 6 and the World Health Organization (WHO) 7 define IDA in pregnancy as ID (serum ferritin level <12 µg/L) with a hemoglobin level of less than 11.0 g/dL (or <110 g/L) and a hematocrit level of less than 33 percent. 8 ID without anemia can be diagnosed based on ferritin levels, a marker of iron...
Results of recent randomized clinical trials in the United States and in Nepal that involved early supplementation with iron showed some reduction in risk of low birth weight or preterm low birth weight, but not preterm delivery.
compared bone marrow aspirates samples of 93 Malawian pregnant women with serum ferritin levels from peripheral blood samples and found that a serum ferritin threshold of <30 ng mL −1 had a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 85·1% in identifying individuals with absent iron stores on bone marrow staining in pregnancy (van den Broek et ...
