Modeled estimates for change in hemoglobin deferral risk, hemoglobin levels, and iron levels in low- and high-intensity donors following donation
Red line = Males; Green line = Females < 50 years-old; Blue line = Females ā„ 50 years-old. Panels 1A-B show estimated change in risk for Hb deferral (Odds ratio) for those with 1ā3 donations (1A) and 4+ donations in prior 2 years (1B); comparisons for Hb deferral risk are intra-group. For low- and high-intensity donors (similarly defined), Panels 1CāD show estimated recovery of Hb levels (g/dL) and Panels 1E-F recovery of iron levels (% decrease in ferritin). For Panels 1C-F, the vertical line reflects the current deferral period.
