Table 4. Comparison of iron status between patients with and without anemia.
Iron markers | Without anemia (n = 1,189) | Anemia (n = 938) | Total (n = 2,127) | P value |
---|---|---|---|---|
TSAT ≥ 20% and ferritin ≥ 100 ng/mL | 554 (46.6) | 416 (44.3) | 970 (45.6) | NS |
TSAT < 20% or ferritin < 100 ng/mL | 635 (53.4) | 522 (55.7) | 1,157 (54.4) | NS |
TSAT < 20% | 109 (9.2) | 188 (20.0) | 297 (14.0) | < 0.001 |
Ferritin < 100 ng/mL | 604 (50.8) | 466 (49.7) | 1,070 (50.3) | NS |
TSAT = transferrin saturation, NS = not significant.
