...Vincenzo Allegra; Giacomo Mengozzi; Alfonso Vasile The study was carried out in order to evaluate in maintenance hemodialysis (MH) patients: (1) the reliability of serum ferritin (SF) measurement in iron deficiency diagnosis and therapy; (2) the possibility to improve iron stores assessment through...

...Nuha Nuwayri-Salti; Farid Jabre; Ghaleb Saab; Majida Daouk; Ziad Salem Serum ferritin level has been shown by many investigators to be a good indicator of bone marrow iron stores in normal subjects. Although this correlation may hold in some pathological situations, it is lost in others...

... and to investigate the influence of body iron status on the levels of lipophilic antioxidants. The patients were categorized into 3 groups according to their serum ferritin levels. We found that the plasma levels of lycophene, δ-tocopherol, γ-tocopherol and retinol of hemodialysis patients were lower than those...
