Factor Information
Data ID 545
Factor Apoferritin
Description Of the total anemic CHD patients, 21 of 49 (43%) were microcytic (mean corpuscular volume <84 fL) and 46 of 49 (94%) had a mean corpuscular volume under 95 fL
Biomarker NA
Classification E2 (physiological factor - biochemical index)
Association
Application prognosis
Objective hemoglobin and ferritin levels in the whole series of CHD patients, and in CHD patients with anemia, depending on whether they had or did not have associated microcytosis.
p Value 0.002
Conclusion The incidence of anemia in CHD patients is similar to that of the normal population and iron deficiency anemia accounts for most of the cases. There were no significant differences in mortality between CHD patients with and without anemia.
