摘要:

The iron stores of 17 healthy young women were evaluated by a serum ferritin assay and by bone marrow iron determinations. Iron stores were absent or scanty in about 70% of subjects. A high degree of correlation was demonstrated between serum ferritin concentration and bone marrow iron stores. The mean serum ferritin level in women with absent iron stores was 26 μg/l, compared with 114 μg/l in women with sufficient bone marrow iron stores. Repeated measurements of serum ferritin, iron, transferrin and blood hemoglobin during the menstrual cycle revealed no significant changes in these parameter

摘要:

The iron stores of 32 healthy pregnant women were evaluated longitudinally during pregnancy and 6 months post partum by serum ferritin assay and by bone marrow iron content. Half of the women were receiving oral iron while the others were not given iron supplementation.Women receiving iron could maintain their iron stores throughout the pregnancy. By contrast, women without iron therapy had low serum ferritin values, pointing to the absence of iron stores during the last trimester, and 6 of these 16 women developed anemia. This was confirmed by estimation of the quantity of stainable iron in the bone marrow. In addition serum iron, transferrin and red cell MCV values indicated iron deficient erythropoesis.During a 6‐month period after pregnancy the women receiving supplemental iron during pregnancy had a significant increase in their serum ferritin concentrations, indicating restoration of iron stores. Women not receiving iron during pregnancy had exhausted iron stores at term and serum ferritin values stayed low even at 6 months after delivery. If iron therapy was instituted after parturition, serum ferritin assays indicated restoration of iron stores within the ensuing 6 month. To prevent iron deficiency anemia during pregnancy supplemental iron is advisable for all pregnant women in our countr

摘要:

Serum ferritin concentration was measured in 47 paired maternal and newborn (umbilical cord sample) blood specimens during delivery. The serum ferritin concentration was also measured in 31 of the above babies at the age of six months. Serum ferritin concentration of the newborn babies (mean 222 μg/l) born to the mothers with a low serum ferritin content at term (mean 28 μg/l) was significantly lower (p<0.05) than that for those (mean 324 μg/l) born to the mothers with a normal ferritin concentration (mean 102 μg/l). The difference between the two groups of infants persisted for at least the whole study period of 6 months (mean at 6 months of age 99 μg/l and 150 μg/l, respecti

摘要:

Measurements of serum ferritin were correlated with bone marrow iron content and other laboratory hematological indices in 44 anemic (B‐Hb<100 g/l) pregnant women. Seventy‐two% of patients classified as iron deficient by the absence of bone marrow iron had diagnostically low serum ferritin concentrations, which percentage is about double compared with those revealed by measurements of serum transferrin, TIBC, transferrin saturation, serum iron, blood hemoglobin and red cell indices. It is also important that serum ferritin was the only one of these measurements which was able to differentiate between iron deficiency, and anemia due to infection. Seven out of 8 patients with anemia due to infection had elevated serum ferritin levels. In 17% of patients no reason for the fall of blood hemoglobin could be shown. A plausible explanation for the low blood hemoglobin is extensive hemodilut
