Iron deficiency: new insights into diagnosis and treatment
Abstract
Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia are common conditions worldwide affecting especially children and young women. In developing countries, iron deficiency is caused by poor iron intake and/or parasitic infection, whereas vegetarian dietary choices, poor iron absorption, and chronic blood loss are common causes in high-income countries. Erythropoiesis stimulating agents can result in functional iron deficiency for erythropoiesis even when stores are iron-replete. Diagnosis of iron deficiency is straightforward, except when it occurs in the context of inflammatory disorders. Oral iron salts correct absolute iron deficiency in most patients, because low hepcidin levels facilitate iron absorption. Unfortunately frequent side effects limit oral iron efficacy. Intravenous iron is increasingly utilized, because currently available preparations allow rapid normalization of total body iron even with a single infusion and are effective also in functional iron deficiency and in iron deficiency associated with inflammatory disorders. The evidence is accumulating that these preparations are safe and effective. However, long-term safety issues of high doses of iron need to be further explored.

“Although many laboratory indexes may be helpful for the ID differential diagnostic workup, such as the mean corpuscular volume (MCV), the reticulocyte count and reticulocyte Hb content, the soluble transferrin receptor and its correlation with SF, and hepcidin measurement, based on the real-life evidence, the determination of iron status by using SF and TSAT is the most commonly deployed strategy”

In the citing paper
“It is a usual practice in many specialties and guidelines to assume that, regardless of the lower normality value of the ferritin test used, SF <30 ng/mL (irrespective of the TSAT value) or SF <100 ng/mL and TSAT <20% are the hallmarks of absolute ID; while SF >100 ng/mL and TSAT <20% usually indicate AI in the context of infection or inflammation [1,2,15,16,17,18,19,20].”

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.
