Iron deficiency may be linked to non-dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease and mortality in patients without anemia, according to results of a nationwide cohort study.While iron is a key component ...

Iron deficiency (ID) is currently defined as a serum ferritin level <100 or 100 to 299 ng/mL with transferrin saturation (TSAT) <20%. Serum ferritin and TSAT are currently used to define absolute and ...

We focus on the case of transferrin (Tf) interacting with polystyrene NPs as an illustrative example, demonstrating how this model captures the complexities of the soft corona and offers deeper ...

Approximately 80% were not familiar with the diagnostic criteria for ID in HF guidelines, and only 0.8% recognised transferrin saturation <20% as an independent marker of ID. Regarding iron repletion, ...

Iron level and unsaturated iron-binding capacity were measured on all plasma samples, which, for the transferrin-saturation studies, were drawn before the saturating dose, at the end of the ...

Obstructive sleep apnea can affect your blood oxygen levels due to the inadequate intake of air while sleeping. During the day, blood oxygen levels—also known as oxygen saturation levels—generally ...

Uric acid, 351.1µmol/L (normal: 178–416). Serum markers for viral hepatitis and autoimmune liver diseases were negative. Plasma iron indices: iron 38 µmol/L (normal: < 25 µmol/L), transferrin ...

Many people will have a serum transferrin level test in addition to the serum iron test. Transferrin is a type of protein responsible for transporting iron in the blood. Transferrin levels can ...
