Serum ferritin as an indicator of iron status: what do we need to know?
Open accessAbstract
Determination of iron status in pregnancy and in young children is essential for both clinical and public health practice. Clinical diagnosis of iron deficiency (ID) through sampling of bone marrow to identify the absence of body iron stores is impractical in most cases. Serum ferritin (SF) concentrations are the most commonly deployed indicator for determining ID, and low SF concentrations reflect a state of iron depletion. However, there is considerable variation in SF cutoffs recommended by different expert groups to diagnose ID. Moreover, the cutoffs used in different clinical laboratories are heterogeneous. There are few studies of diagnostic test accuracy to establish the sensitivity and specificity of SF compared with key gold standards (such as absent bone marrow iron stores, increased intestinal iron absorption, and hemoglobin response to SF) among noninflamed, outpatient populations. The limited data available suggest the commonly recommended SF cutoff of <15 μg/L is a specific but not sensitive cutoff, although evidence is limited. Data from women during pregnancy or from young children are especially uncommon. Most data are from studies conducted >30 y ago, do not reflect ethnic or geographic diversity, and were performed in an era for which laboratory methods no longer reflect present practice. Future studies to define the appropriate SF cutoffs are urgently needed and would also provide an opportunity to compare this indicator with other established and emerging iron indexes. In addition, future work would benefit from a focus on elucidating cutoffs and indexes relevant to iron adequacy.

“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].”

“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”

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.
