Serum ferritin as an indicator of iron status: what do we need to know?
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2017 Determination of iron status in pregnancy and in young children is essential for both clinical and public health practice. Clinical diagnosis of iron deficiency (ID) through sampling of bone marrow to identify the absence of body iron stores is ...

Association between serum ferritin levels and risk of the metabolic syndrome in Chinese adults: a population study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ferritin is a ubiquitous intracellular protein that can store and release iron and act as a buffer against iron deficiency and iron overload. Ferritin is widely used as a clinical biomarker to evaluate iron status. Increased serum ferritin concentrations
