Abstract:
This report is devoted to the soluble transferrin receptors. We analyzed the comparison between ferritin, soluble transferrin receptors and C reactive protein. The soluble receptor measurement represents a significal advance in assessment of iron status, especially in the diagnosis of iron deficiency associated with inflammation, and in the evaluation of red blood mass during erythroid hyperplasias.
