Iron Overload: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis and Monitoring
ABSTRACT Iron overload is associated with significant health risks, underscoring the importance of understanding its pathophysiology as well as establishing accurate diagnostic and monitoring methods. Chronic iron overload is associated with either genetic disorders characterized by excessive iron accumulation (hereditary hemochromatosis), or is ...

The effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy on hepcidin and on inflammatory and iron marker levels
Serum hepcidin levels may increase in response to infection and inflammation. The present study investigated the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on levels of serum hepcidin, inflammatory markers, and iron markers. An interventional study

Haemochromatosis ‐ a modern clinician’s guide
Abstract Haemochromatosis is an inherited disorder of iron metabolism affecting approximately 100 000 Australians. Iron overload may result in end organ dysfunction, most commonly manifesting as chronic liver disease, arthropathy and endocrinopathies. End organ complications can be prevented, minimised or reversed, with early diagnosis and initiation ...

Serum hepcidin in clinical specimens [PDF]
Summary. The hepatic antimicrobial protein, hepcidin, is implicated in duodenal iron absorption and mobilization. Overexpression of the hepcidin gene is associated with a hypoferraemic, microcytic, iron‐refractory anaemia. On the basis of these observations, it has been proposed that hepcidin is a mediator of the common clinical syndrome, anaemia of ...

Impact of Expanded Hemodialysis on Inflammation and Iron Metabolism in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Microinflammation and functional iron deficiency are major contributors to anemia and treatment burden in maintenance hemodialysis (HD). Medium cutoff (MCO) membranes enhance the removal of middle‐ and large‐sized solutes implicated in these pathways, yet real‐world data using routinely measured inflammatory and iron‐related markers are scarce.

Parenteral iron—Does it increase infection risk?
Abstract Background and Objectives Iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) are prevalent conditions impacting various patient populations, both surgical and non‐surgical conditions. The advent of patient blood management (PBM) has promoted intravenous (IV) iron therapy as an alternative to oral iron and blood transfusions.

Hepcidin promotes oral ulcer healing via amphiregulin production in rats
Background/purpose: Hepcidin is an antimicrobial peptide that regulates iron metabolism. Recently, hepcidin was reported to promote wound healing. However, the mechanism underlying hepcidin signaling in the oral mucosa remains unclear.

Hypoxia and hypercapnia elicit overlapping but distinct skeletal muscle toxicities
Abstract figure legend Hypoxia and hypercapnia cause overlapping skeletal muscle phenotypes, including atrophy, change in myofibre metabolic profile and myogenic response to injury. Both signals operate via distinct cellular pathways. Abstract Skeletal muscle dysfunction is strongly associated with elevated mortality in acute and chronic pulmonary ...

ABSTRACT Background Transfusion‐related iron overload (TRIO) is a late effect of therapy impacting survivors of childhood cancer and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) who receive frequent packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusions. Surprisingly, there are no accepted guidelines to assist providers in identifying and treating at‐risk ...
