Extreme Hyperferritinemia: Causes and Prognosis

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
The significance of extreme hyperferritinemia and its association with certain diagnoses and prognoses are not well characterized. We performed a retrospective analysis of adult patients with at least one total serum ferritin (TSF) measurement ≥ 5000 µg/L over 2 years, in three university hospitals.

Extreme Hyperferritinemia [PDF]

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2016
Hyperferritinemia can be a result of inflammation, infection, chronic iron overload, or other uncommon pathologies including hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). There is a historical association between extreme hyperferritinemia and HLH, but in reality HLH is associated with a minority of hyperferritinemic states.We identified conditions most ...

Hyperferritinemia and COVID-19?

Rad Hrvatske akademije znanosti i umjetnosti. Medicinske znanosti, 2020
Poznato je da je povećana koncentracija feritina u serumu ili hiperferitinemija povezana s COVID-19, posebno u težim oblicima ove bolesti. Feritin je molekula čija se koncentracija određuje kao biljeg koji odražava opskrbu organizma sa željezom, te manje značajno kao biljeg upale infektivnog i neinfektivnog podrijetla. Ekspresija ove molekule neophodne
