DOI: 10.1038/ejcn.2016.255
Abstract: Background/Objectives:Low serum ferritin concentrations at birth, which reflect neonatal iron stores, track through to early childhood and have been associated with poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes. We aimed to identify maternal, antenatal and birth-associated factors that influence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/08880018.2016.1268226
Abstract: ABSTRACT Low iron stores in children, absolute iron deficiency (AID), can lead to impaired neurodevelopment and requires iron therapy. In the presence of infection/inflammation, like in cystic fibrosis (CF), serum ferritin (SF) is not a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/ije/dyad010
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Increased iron stores have been associated with elevated risks of different infectious diseases, suggesting that iron supplementation may increase the risk of infections. However, these associations may be biased by confounding or reverse causation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/trf.14173
Abstract: Iron deficiency represents a risk to donor health and the blood supply. Efficacy trials indicate that postdonation iron replacement improves iron stores but they do not account for complexities of implementation in the routine collection… read more here.

DOI: 10.2337/db18-2048-p
Abstract: High body iron stores are positively related to insulin resistance in humans, but the underlying mechanisms remain unresolved. Iron stimulates lipolysis in murine adipocytes in vitro, but the influence of iron stores on lipolytic rate… read more here.
