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.
26 Οκτ 2024 · Ferritin levels <27.23 ng/mL are a predictive biomarker of pregnancy anemia, regardless of CBC indices in the first trimester. At the lowest point in pregnancy (between 35 and 38 weeks gestation), ferritin levels can be as low as between 15 and 20 ng/mL and be a normal presentation.
Iron supplementation during pregnancy increases maternal iron status during pregnancy including hemoglobin, serum iron, MCV, transferrin saturation, and serum ferritin. Reactive oxygen species are products of oxygen.
15 Ιαν 2013 · Measurement of the serum ferritin level is the most accurate test to diagnose iron deficiency anemia. C: 6, 7: All pregnant women should be screened for iron deficiency anemia. C: 4, 11, 14
3 Αυγ 2015 · Normal serum ferritin levels vary between laboratories but generally concentrations >300 µg/L in men and postmenopausal women and >200 µg/L in premenopausal women are regarded as elevated. 1 Low ferritin values provide absolute evidence of iron deficiency. 2 Raised levels often indicate iron overload, but they are not specific, as ferritin is ...
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.
