Calculated from iron and TIBC. Fasting and timing improve consistency.
Acute-phase reactant. Menstruation, menopause, inflammation, liver disease, and iron therapy matter.
<4.0 suggests deficiency. Recent intake or supplementation may raise serum values.
Acute-phase reactant; used in hemolysis evaluation with LDH, bilirubin, and reticulocytes.
Can help distinguish iron deficiency from inflammation; use performing-lab interval.
Interpret relative to hemoglobin, oxygenation, and kidney function.
<10 severe deficiency; 10-19 mild-moderate deficiency. Toxicity assessment requires clinical context.
No universal interval across methods. Record exact performing-lab method and range.
Fasting, time of day, inflammation, albumin, and trace-metal collection technique matter.
Estrogen, pregnancy, inflammation, liver function, and ceruloplasmin affect values.
