Serum Transferrin Receptor And Its Relation To Serum Ferritin In The Diagnosis Of Iron Deficiency Anemia

This Study Is Designed To Evaluate The Clinical Efficiency Of sTFR Measurement In The Identification Of Iron Deficiency Anemia And Its Relation To Other Laboratory Diagnostic Tools Used In This Type Of Anemia.The Haemoglobin Level Was Highly Significantly Reduced In All Three Types Of Hypochromic Anemias (Iron Deficiency Animia, Animia Of Chronic Disorders And β - Thalassemia Trait), The Mildest Reduction Was In The β -Thalassemia Trait.Red Crll Indices (MCV,MCH, MCHC) Were Very Highly Significantly Reduced In The Three Types Of Hypochromic Anemias.RDW (cv) Was Very Highly Significantly Increased In Iron Deficiency Anemia (Adults And Children) And In Anemia Of Chronic Disorders While It Was Nomal In β-Thalassemia Trait.
