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.
Ferritin concentration should not be used alone to identify risk of iron overload. Patients with elevated ferritin levels should receive clinical and laboratory evaluation to establish the underlying cause (strong recommendation, very low certainty of evidence).
21 Απρ 2020 · This guideline provides global, evidence-informed recommendations on the use of indicators for assessing a population’s iron status and application of the use of ferritin concentrations for monitoring and evaluating iron interventions.
Ferritin levels in the highest versus lowest tertile at five and 16 years were significantly positively associated with MetS risk Z score at adolescence in boys and these associations were unaffected by adjustment for covariates.
Infants with a birth weight of <1500 g should receive during the hospital stay and after discharge a total iron intake (dietary plus supplements) of 2-3 mg·kg −1 ·day −1. This dose should be modified based on hemoglobin and serum ferritin concentrations.
5 Νοε 2018 · Abstract. Iron deficiency anemia is considered the most common and widespread nutritional form of anemia in childhood. Red cells are hypochromic and microcytic with low mean corpuscular volume (MCV), low mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) and low reticulocyte hemoglobin content (CHr). Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is increased.
18 Μαΐ 2020 · For children, the haemoglobin identified serum ferritin threshold was 19·9 μg/L (95% CI 18·8–22·6) and the sTfR identified serum ferritin threshold was 20·0 μg/L (19·4–20·9; p=0·89). For women the haemoglobin identified serum ferritin threshold was 25·2 μg/L (24·2–26·2) and the sTfR identified serum ferritin threshold was 24 ...
