Methods: A total of 398 patients on MHD were recruited and divided into 3 groups on the basis of their baseline TSAT levels (<20, 20–40, and >40%). Results: There was no difference in the proportion of patients on erythropoiesis-stimulating agents or iron supplements between the 3 ...

SERUM IRON CONCENTRATION (SI) AND TRANSFERRIN SATURATION (SAT) ARE LOWER IN NORMAL CHILDREN THAN IN ADULTSPediatric Research publishes original papers, invited reviews, and commentaries on the etiologies of diseases of children and disorders of development, extending from molecular biology to epidemiology...
Cancer cells require high levels of iron for rapid proliferation, leading to significant upregulation of cell-surface transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), which mediates iron uptake by binding to the iron-carrying protein transferrin1,2,3. Leveraging this phenomenon and the fast endocytosis rate of TfR...
Transferrin is present in the blood in different iron-bound forms: devoid of iron (apotransferrin, ATf), as monoferric Tf, or as diferric Tf (holotransferrin, HTf). The relative amount of iron-free and iron-loaded Tf in blood is given in terms of the % Tf saturation (TSAT), an ...

There are also wide variations in SI and Sat independent of age, due to diurnal, dietary, and other factors, that are reflected in a large normal range. For better accuracy of diagnosis SI and Sat should be used in conjunction with at least one other test of iron status, and ...
The total body iron stores were estimated from the volume of red cells removed during therapeutic phlebotomy corrected for an estimated 2 mg/day dietary iron absorbed during the phlebotomy period; the amount of storage iron was compared to the serum , serum iron, unsaturated capacity, and ...
