Transferrin saturation and mortality.
Ellervik and colleagues (1 ) recently reported a positive association between transferrin saturation (TS) and mortality. Several questions arise from this observation: Is the association due to all causes of iron overload or to hereditary hemochromatosis only? Does the study underestimate the true association? And, is mortality due to variation in iron, transferrin, or both? We have relevant da...

متن کاملTotal Mortality by Elevated Transferrin Saturation in Patients With Diabetes
OBJECTIVE It is not known to what extent iron overload predicts prognosis in patients with diabetes after diagnosis or whether iron overload is a risk factor independent of the HFE genotype. We investigated total and cause-specific mortality according to increased transferrin saturation (≥ 50 vs. <50%), whether mortality is driven by the HFE genotype, and whether early measurement of transferri...
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 کاملElevated serum transferrin saturation and mortality.
BACKGROUND A large proportion of US adults have elevated transferrin saturation, an indicator of a predisposition for iron overload. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between elevated serum transferrin saturation and mortality. METHODS This cohort study was conducted using data from the First Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1 (1971-1974) (NHANES I) merged with...
