چکیده مقاله:

Background and Aim: Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional disorders in the world, and it may affect the metabolism and function of a number of proteins, including the level of thyroid hormones. As such, fluctuations in the level of thyroid hormones may also affect the body's iron status. The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between thyroid hormones and the status of iron stores. Materials & Methods: The study populations include referral patients to laboratory of Shourideh clinic in Mashhad, Iran. Fe, Ferritin, TIBC (total iron-binding capacity), TSH, T4, T3, and CRP tests were performed with a physician's request. The target sample size was a total of 420 patients including 287 women and 133 men with an average age of 41.5 years. TSH and Ferritin test were measured by Elisa method, Fe and TIBC were measured by automatically method. Results: The results showed no significant relationship between the body's iron status and thyroid hormones level (P˃0.05). Interestingly, in subjects with lower iron level, TSH was at the highest level and T4 was at the lowest level. However, no positive relationship was found between iron status and T3 level. Conclusion: Although, there was no significant relationship between iron status and thyroid hormones level in the present study, it seems that the fluctuations of each of them may affect somewhat the other.

Association between serum ferritin and liver iron concentration with cardiac iron in pediatric thalassemia major patients

Background Recently, the ability of LIC (liver iron concentration) and serum ferritin in predicting myocardial iron overload (MIO) has been challenged by magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) monitoring which demonstrated no or weak correlation between serum ferritin or LIC and MIO. Anyway, the role of this traditional markers could result particularly useful in pediatric population, where MRI asses...
