New Perspectives on Circulating Ferritin: Its Role in Health and Disease
The diagnosis of iron disturbances usually includes the evaluation of serum parameters. Serum iron is assumed to be entirely bound to transferrin, and transferrin saturation—the ratio between the serum iron concentration and serum transferrin—usually ...

Ferritin as a marker of Insulin Resistance in Diabetic Patients [PDF]
Backgroud : Insulin resistance is a pathogenic hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Serum ferritin, a predominant iron-storage protein and a biomarker of iron stores, are elevated in persons with prevalent diabetes as compared with non-diabetic ...

Inflammation is not the cause of an elevated serum ferritin in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Background. In non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NALFD), it has often been assumed that an elevation in serum ferritin is likely related to inflammation rather than iron overload.Material and methods.

High serum ferritin alone as a predictor of mortality and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
We report here utility of high serum ferritin alone as a predictor of mortality and diagnosis of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). We compared mortality in patients with high serum ferritin >5000 ng/mL versus 5000 ug/dL.
