Parent topics
- Hematology [r]: In broad terms, the study of the morphology, physiology, and pathology of the blood and blood-forming tissues; also a subspecialty of internal medicine dealing with the diseases of these tissues [e]
- Erythropoesis [r]: The creation, from megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitor cells, and life cycle of erythrocytes (i.e., red blood cells or RBCs) [e]
- Human iron metabolism [r]: Mechanisms of ingestion, distribution, use and excretion of iron by the human body, as well as an introduction to disorders of iron metabolism [e]
Subtopics
- Total iron binding capacity [r]: An indirect measurement of transferrin receptors present in blood; also a surrogate for iron available to the bone marrow [e]
- Transferrin saturation [r]: A value calculated from dividing the serum iron by the total iron binding capacity, which corrects for the presence of inflammation in giving a clinically useful measurement of transferrin [e]
- Unsaturated iron binding capacity [r]: Measurement performed on serum, in which a known quantity of iron is added, and, after a short wait, the amount of iron that did not bind to transferrin receptors is determined, the UIBC [e]
- Iron deficiency anemia [r]: Anaemia resulting from a deficiency of iron, characterized by hypochromic microcytic erythrocytes and a normoblastic reaction of the bone marrow. [e]
- Iron overload [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Acute phase reaction [r]: An early local inflammatory reaction to insult or injury that consists of fever, an increase in inflammatory humoral factors, and an increased synthesis by hepatocytes of a number of proteins or glycoproteins usually found in the plasma. [e]
- Serum iron [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Ferritin [r]: An intracellular protein-iron complex in which iron reserves are stored [e]
- Iron deficiency anemia [r]: Anaemia resulting from a deficiency of iron, characterized by hypochromic microcytic erythrocytes and a normoblastic reaction of the bone marrow. [e]
- TSAT (disambiguation) [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Total iron binding capacity [r]: An indirect measurement of transferrin receptors present in blood; also a surrogate for iron available to the bone marrow [e]
