A comparative analysis of hemogram parameters, iron metabolism, C-reactive protein, hepcidin, soluble transferrin receptor in patients with malignant neoplasms, accompanied by anaemia and without it. Patients with anaemia compared with non-anaemic patients had lower haemoglobin, erythrocyte, hematocrit, mean corpuscular haemoglobin and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration, iron, iron transferrin saturation, total iron-binding capacity, and higher levels C-reactive protein, hepcidin, soluble transferrin receptor (p0,05). Negative correlations of moderate strength between hepcidin and erythrocyte levels (r=-0,41), hemoglobin (r=-0,3), hematocrit (r=-0,35), and total iron-binding capacity (r=-0,51) and transferrin (r=-0,54). In addition, negative correlations of moderate strength were revealed between the soluble transferrin receptor and hemoglobin level (r=-0,57), hematocrit (r -0,49), iron transferrin saturation (r=-0,47), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (r=-0,44), mean corpuscular volume (r=-0,39). A direct correlation of moderate strength was found between the soluble transferrin receptor and transferrin (r=0,41) and total iron-binding capacity (r=0,38), as well as between hepcidin and ferritin (r=0,61), C-reactive protein (r=0,48). In general, the development of functional iron deficiency in patients with anaemia and malignant neoplasms has been established, and the value of hepcidin and soluble transferrin receptor in the genesis of this anaemia has been confirmed.

Aim. To provide clinical and laboratory characteristics of anemia of chronic disease in HIV infection in order to improve its diagnosis. Methods. The study included 63 HIV-infected patients with anemia of chronic disease. Assessed were the frequency of complaints and physical changes, erythrocyte indices, serum iron level, total iron-binding capacity of the blood, soluble transferrin receptor and erythropoietin markers of inflammation (ferritin, interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, soluble receptor CD14, C-reactive protein). Comparison group consisted of a group of 35 patients with iron deficiency anemia. Results. The most frequent were complaints of weakness, fatigue and diarrhea. Hemoglobin level of the majority of patients corresponded to mild anemia. It often had a micro- or normocytic character (48.1±6.8 and 46.3±6.8% of patients, respectively), was normochromic (53.7±6.8% of patients) and hyporegenerative; in 94% of patients relative level of reticulocytes in the blood level was 0.2-1.2%; 87.3% had a reduced number of red blood cells. A negative relationship between levels of hemoglobin with erythropoietin (r=-0.5, p=0.0003) was established. Low levels of serum iron was typical for anemia of a chronic disease, as well as for iron-deficiency anemia. In patients with anemia of chronic disease revealed were significantly higher levels of soluble receptor CD14, C-reactive protein and ferritin and the relatively low level of total iron binding capacity of serum. Conclusion. Anemia of chronic disease in HIV infection is characterized by a predominance of light forms, the frequent lack of «typical for anemia» complaints; mainly micro or normocytic, normochromic types of process with low serum iron; hyporegeneration character against the backdrop of an adequate response to erythropoietin-synthesizing cells decrease in hemoglobin concentration; high levels of markers of inflammation (sCD14, C-reactive protein and ferritin) and relatively low total iron binding capacity of serum.

We have measured ferritin concentrations in healthy women, and ferritin, C-reactive protein, iron and total iron-binding capacity in patients undergoing hysterectomy or major gastrointestinal surgery. Pre-operative serum ferritin concentrations in patients awaiting hysterectomy were significantly lower than those for patients awaiting gastrointestinal surgery and also lower than those for healthy women of similar age. Healthy women aged between 51 and 60 years had significantly higher ferritin levels than women aged 35–50 years. All patients studied showed large increases in serum ferritin and C-reactive protein concentrations after surgery and approximately similar decreases in iron and in total iron-binding capacity.

AbstractTo date, concentrations of the promising biomarker hepcidin have only been assessed in serum of relatively small series of healthy volunteers and patients. We assessed age- and sex-stratified reference ranges of serum hepcidin concentration in a selected reference set and performed regression analyses to study associations between hepcidin and (biochemical) variables in a large, well-phenotyped sample of the general population (n = 2998). All participants filled out a questionnaire on lifestyle, health status, and medical history. Serum measurements of iron parameters, liver enzyme alanine aminotransferase, creatinine and C-reactive protein were available. Serum hepcidin concentrations were lower for premenopausal than for postmenopausal women (median, 4.1nM vs 8.5nM, respectively). Hepcidin concentrations in men were constant over age (median, 7.8nM). Serum hepcidin was strongly associated with serum ferritin in men and women: β-coefficient of log-transformed variables (95% confidence interval): 0.78 (0.74-0.82) and 0.83 (0.78-0.88), respectively. Additional significant, though less strong, associations were observed for C-reactive protein and total iron binding capacity in men and for total iron binding capacity, alanine aminotransferase, and glomerular filtration rate in women. Our study provides age- and sex-specific reference ranges of serum hepcidin concentration and indicates ferritin as the primary correlate of serum hepcidin concentration.

The article presents information about the protein responsible for the iron depot in the body – ferritin. Its physiological role and clinical significance are demonstrated. A batophenanthroline method was used to determine the range of iron in the blood serum and the range of the total iron-binding capacity of the blood serum. The range of unsaturated iron-binding capacity of blood serum was calculated as the difference between total iron-binding capacity in blood serum and the range of iron in blood serum. The transferrin saturation coefficient of iron was defined as the ratio of the content of iron in blood serum to the total iron-binding capacity in blood serum. The range of transferrin was determined by the rate of the total iron-binding capacity in blood serum, and ferritin using the radiometric method. The dynamics of changes in ferritin content in malignant neoplasm anemia in patients with bladder cancer has been demonstrated. The conclusion about the importance of this parameter for laboratory diagnosis of iron deficiency and anemia of malignant neoplasms is made.
