The impact of low‐dose aspirin on hemoglobin levels in pregnancy: A secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial for prevention of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives This study evaluates the association of low‐dose aspirin (LDA) with hemoglobin (Hb) levels during pregnancy and explores how changes in Hb levels relate to hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). Methods This secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial comprised 249 pregnant women recruited from a regional hospital in ...

The clinical value of plasma hepcidin levels in predicting bacterial infections in febrile children

open access: yesPediatrics and Neonatology, 2019
Background: Febrile children are often evaluated for the risk of bacterial infections in the pediatric emergency department (PER). Hepcidin is an acute phase inflammatory protein. In this study, we examined the plasma hepcidin levels in febrile children.

Interplay of serum hepcidin with female sex hormones, metabolic syndrome, and abdominal fat distribution among premenopausal and postmenopausal women

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2022
Highlights • Postmenopausal state (PMS) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are independent factors of high hepcidin. • Estrogen and progesterone are correlated with hepcidin but not explain its higher level in PMS. • Ferritin, insulin resistance, and MetS are

The role of iron in normal and impaired testicular function

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Iron plays a critical role in testicular physiology, impacting spermatogenesis, testosterone production, and overall testicular function. Iron homeostasis is maintained through systemic and cellular regulatory mechanisms, including hepcidin‐mediated systemic iron control and the iron‐responsive element/iron regulatory protein (IRE/IRP) system ...

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay specific for murine hepcidin-1: correlation with hepatic mRNA expression in established and novel models of dysregulated iron homeostasis

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
Mice have been essential for distinguishing the role of hepcidin in iron homeostasis. Currently, investigators monitor levels of murine hepatic hepcidin-1 mRNA as a surrogate marker for the bioactive hepcidin protein itself.
