The most commonly used thresholds of serum ferritin concentration to diagnose iron deficiency in studies of iron and/or micronutrient supplementation in pregnant women were <12 μg/L (35 studies) and <15 μg/L (17 studies).
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 is an iron-storage protein present in all cells and can be measured in serum, plasma, liver, red blood cells, and other specimens. Low ferritin concentrations suggest deficient iron stores, whereas elevated ferritin concentrations could suggest iron overload. Purpose of the guideline
11 Οκτ 2021 · The World Health Organization (WHO) recently recommended ferritin thresholds of less than 15 μg/L (adults) and less than 12 μg/L (children) for the diagnosis of iron deficiency, but these thresholds were based largely on expert opinion along with historical studies correlated with absence of bone marrow iron stores. 1,2
5 Αυγ 2024 · Ferritin testing showed notable associations with fatigue (AHR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.95-2.12), anemia (AHR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.70-1.79), and iron therapy (AHR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.46-1.54). Ferritin testing was associated with female sex in all age groups, including postmenopausal.
3 Αυγ 2015 · A study of primary care requests for laboratory estimation of serum ferritin suggests that targeting blood samples with raised ferritin levels (≥300 μg/L in males, ≥200 μg/L in females) and transferrin saturation levels (>50% males, >40% females) for HFE genotyping improves detection of C282Y homozygous hereditary haemochromatosis. 10.
