Results of iron studies assessing biochemical iron deficiency (ferritin, serum iron, iron saturation, soluble transferrin receptor and zinc protoporphyrin to heme ratio). The shaded areas show the upper and lower interquartile range of the comparison neonates. The boxes show the upper and lower interquartile range (and median value) of the groups (n =10) of SGA, IDM and VLBW neonates. Single dots are the six neonates with the pattern of test results suggesting iron deficiency at birth. IDM, infant of diabetic mother; SGA, small-for-gestational-age; VLBW, very-low-birth weight.
