Ferritin levels

Hypochromic microcytic anemia (HMA) is a prevalent and serious condition if left untreated. Haemograms, serum iron, and ferritin tests play crucial roles in diagnosis and in guiding the identification of underlying causes. This study was conducted with the objective of describing the haemogram characteristics and assessing serum iron and ferritin levels in patients with hypochromic microcytic anemia.

Oviparously developing embryos of the crustaceanArtemia franciscana encyst and enter diapause, exhibiting a level of stress tolerance seldom seen in metazoans. The extraordinary stress resistance of encysted Artemia embryos is thought to depend in part on the regulated synthesis of artemin, a ferritin superfamily member.

The second condition is the anemia of chronic inflammation with inadequate iron supply to the erythroid marrow. The distinction between true irondeficiency anemia and the anemia associated with chronic inflammation is among the most common diagnostic problems encountered by clinicians (see below). Usually the anemia of chronic inflammation is normocytic and normochromic. The iron values usually make the differential diagnosis clear, as the ferritin level is normal or increased and the percent transferrin saturation and TIBC are typically below normal.

Table 98-3 Iron Store Measurements Iron Stores 4+ Marrow Iron Stain, 0– µg/L Serum Ferritin, 0 0 150 Iron overload — 500–1000 Red Cell Protoporphyrin Levels Protoporphyrin is an intermediate in the pathway to heme synthesis. Under conditions in which heme synthesis is impaired, protoporphyrin accumulates within the red cell.
