Guideline for the laboratory diagnosis of functional iron deficiency.
TLDR
One form of FID, found in some subjects treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), has been the subject of numerous studies following the widespread use of these agents, especially in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Abstract:
Functional iron deficiency (FID) is a state in which there is insufficient iron incorporation into erythroid precursors in the face of apparently adequate body iron stores, as defined by the presence of stainable iron in the bone marrow together with a serum ferritin value within normal limits (Macdougall et al, 1989). In its broadest sense this definition encompasses the partial block in iron transport to the erythroid marrow seen in subjects with infectious, inflammatory and malignant diseases, and is a major component of the anaemia of chronic disease (ACD). One form of FID, found in some subjects treated with erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs), has been the subject of numerous studies following the widespread use of these agents, especially in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD).read more

Investigation and management of iron deficiency anaemia in a specialist palliative care setting and the role of intravenous iron:a descriptive analysis of hospice data
TL;DR: Results indicate iron deficiency is common and can be safely treated with intravenous iron replacement, within current guidelines, in a hospice setting, which should define the optimum use of this approach in palliative care patients.

Hemoglobina reticulocitaria: un nuevo parámetro del hemograma de gran valor en el diagnóstico y manejo de la eritropoyesis deficiente en hierro
TL;DR: The reticulocyte hemoglobin (RHE) as mentioned in this paper is the first parameter that is normalized when administered therapy has been adequate and it has also proven to be cost effective, especially for being a CBC parameter more than an additional test.

Effects of iron supplementation on microcytic and hypochromic red blood cells during the third trimester of pregnancy
TL;DR: In the third trimester of pregnancy, mild anaemia often occurs and it is difficult to determine whether the decreased haemoglobin concentration is physiological or pathological and whether supplementation is required as discussed by the authors .

Il Laboratorio nell’anemia associata alla malattia renale cronica (MRC)
TL;DR: Anemia is one of the most important complications of chronic kidney disease (MRC) and has a tendency to manifest in maniera differente secondo lo stadio della malattia e le specifiche caratteristiche genetiche, sociali e ambientali dell’individuo.

TL;DR: It is reported that hepcidin bound to ferroportin in tissue culture cells, leading to decreased export of cellular iron and the posttranslational regulation of ferroports by hePCidin may complete a homeostatic loop.

Serum transferrin receptor and its ratio to serum ferritin in the diagnosis of iron deficiency.
TL;DR: In anemic patients, TfR measurement is a valuable noninvasive tool for the diagnosis of iron depletion, and offers an attractive alternative to more conventional laboratory tests in the detection of depleted iron stores.
