Threshold ferritin and hepcidin concentrations indicating early iron deficiency in young women based on upregulation of iron absorption
BACKGROUND: Plasma ferritin is a widely used indicator to detect iron deficiency, but the threshold ferritin that defines iron deficiency remains uncertain. Our aim was to define the ferritin concentration at which the body begins to upregulate iron absorption from the diet; this could provide a fun...
