Iron in the Brain
Abstract
The location and function of iron in the central nervous system are reviewed with particular emphasis on human biology. Iron is distributed to different cell types in the brain in a heterogeneous fashion through the action of transferrin, transferrin receptors, and the metabolic needs of those cells. The function of this iron and its storage is documented in states of growth and development as well as during pathological states associated with aging. The information relating this biology to current observations of attention deficits in iron-deficient humans is also reviewed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
