Red cell indices and serum ferritin levels in children.
The blood counts of 187 non-anaemic children who attended hospital with minor illnesses and who were between the ages of 12 months and 6 years were studied retrospectively. As many as 76-8% of these children were found to have MCVs below the normal adult range. A prospective study of a further 28 non-anaemic children in the same age group showed that the majority of children with low MCVs have ...

OBJECTIVE To study the correlation between third-trimester serum ferritin concentration and hemoglobin and red cell indices to select the best hematologic characteristic to identify women who need iron therapy. METHODS In a prospective study, blood was drawn from pregnant women with hemoglobin above 10 g/dL, and thalassemia trait excluded at booking, at 28-30 weeks' gestation to study the cor...
متن کاملSerum iron and ferritin levels in alopecia areata

The aim of this study is to evaluate serum iron and ferritin levels in patients with AA. Methods: Fifty patients of AA and 50 age and sex matched control subjects without any hair loss were studied.

متن کاملPrevalence of high serum and red cell ferritin levels in HIV-infected patients.
We report a high prevalence of elevated serum and red cell ferritin (SF and RCF) levels in 168 patients with HIV infection. SF levels increase with clinical worsening of infection and with decreasing CD4+ lymphocyte counts (ANOVA, p < 0.001) while RCF is significantly higher in asymptomatic AIDS patients (ANOVA, p < 0.001) and in those treated with zidovudine (AZT) (ANOVA, p < 0.001). It is sug...
متن کاملSerum ferritin levels and bone mineral density in the elderly
Background: Iron overload influences negatively on bone mineral density (BMD) but the results of studies regarding serum ferritin (SF) and BMD are conflicting.This study aimed to determine the association of SF and BMD in the elderly. Methods: All participants of the Amirkola cohort selected between 2011-2012, aged > 60 years were classified as high or normal (<200ng/ml) SF. BMD at femoral nec...
