Journal ArticleDOI
Is Erythrocyte Protoporphyrin a Better Single Screening Test for Iron Deficiency Compared to Hemoglobin or Mean Cell Volume in Children and Women
TL;DR: The sensitivity and specificity of EP in screening for ID were consistently superior to or at least as effective as those of Hb and MCV in each population examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron overload in the rat pancreas following portacaval shunting and dietary iron supplementation.
Walter I. Horne,Bernard Tandler,Michael A. Dubick,Onni Niemelä,Gary M. Brittenham,Hidekazu Tsukamoto +5 more
TL;DR: The results show that a combination of portacaval shunting and carbonyl iron feeding achieve pancreatic iron overload and support the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of iron-induced damage in the pancreas.
