Elevated serum ferritin as a predictor of complications in cirrhotic patients: a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
BMC GastroenterologyIntroduction Cirrhosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide [1]. While serum ferritin is recognized as a marker of liver injury and inflammation, its prognostic value for cirrhosis-related complications is not well established.

The Kinetics of Serum Ferritin
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1978 SummaryThe mean serum ferritin in normal dogs averaged 24 ng/ml which is similar to the level in normal man. The plasma clearance of recrystallized ferritin was determined by changes in the serum level or by the clearance of ferritin tagged with 125I or 59Fe. Clearance half times was invariably less than 10 min with doses ranging from tracer quantities

Inflammation is not the cause of an elevated serum ferritin in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Annals of Hepatology, 2014 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.

New Perspectives on Circulating Ferritin: Its Role in Health and Disease
Molecules, 2023 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 ...
