Risk of cancer by transferrin saturation levels and haemochromatosis genotype: population-based study and meta-analysis.

Journal of internal medicine - 1 Jan 2012

Ellervik C, Tybjaerg-Hansen A, Nordestgaard B G

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Increased iron overload, whether or not owing to the presence of the haemochromatosis genotype C282Y/C282Y, may be associated with an increased risk of cancer. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that elevated transferrin saturation levels (as a proxy for iron overload) and haemochromatosis genotype C282Y/C282Y are associated with an increased risk of cancer. METHODS: We conducted a...
