Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Serum transferrin receptor (sTfR) measurement is a helpful test for diagnosis of iron deficiency. Increased values are detectable in thalassemia syndromes due to increased erythropoiesis. However, sTfR has never been studied in hemoglobin E (HbE) carriers and their interactions with alpha-thalassemia heterozygotes that are common in Southeast Asia. METHODS: We determined sTfR concentrations using a...
