The mortality risk of elevated serum transferrin saturation and consumption of dietary iron.
BACKGROUND Recent data shows an increased mortality risk associated with elevated transferrin saturation. Because ingestion of dietary iron may contribute to iron overload in persons with elevated transferrin saturation, we investigated the relationship between elevated transferrin saturation, ingestion of dietary iron and red meat, and mortality. METHODS This 12-year cohort study used data f...
متن کاملElevated Transferrin Saturation and Risk of Diabetes
OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that elevated transferrin saturation is associated with an increased risk of any form of diabetes, as well as type 1 or type 2 diabetes separately. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We used two general population studies, The Copenhagen City Heart Study (CCHS, N = 9,121) and The Copenhagen General Population Study (CGPS, N = 24,195), as well as a 1:1 age- and sex-...
متن کاملLymphocyte labile iron pool, plasma iron, transferrin saturation and ferritin levels in colon cancer patients.
Patients with colorectal carcinoma showed statistically significant lower values of transferrin saturation, total iron binding capacity and serum iron level as compared with control group, while the level of ferritin and the size of labile iron pool in carcinoma patients were higher, although this difference was not statistically significant. Our observations are in favour of the hypothesis whi...
متن کاملDietary iron intake and risk of coronary disease among men.
BACKGROUND We prospectively studied iron intake in relation to the incidence of coronary disease in a 4-year follow-up of 44,933 men (with no previous history of cardiovascular disease) aged 40 to 75 years in 1986 who completed a food frequency questionnaire at baseline. METHODS AND RESULTS We documented 844 incident cases of coronary disease (249 nonfatal myocardial infarctions, 137 coronary...
متن کاملDietary iron intake and risk of Parkinson's disease.
Dietary iron is the most important source of iron stores. Several case-control studies have described the association of high dietary iron and Parkinson's disease, but prospective data are lacking. The authors prospectively followed 47,406 men and 76,947 women from the United States who provided information through a mailed questionnaire on their diet, medical history, and lifestyle practices b...
