Fig. 2. Attenuation in the range of interindividual characteristic hepcidin levels after multivariate adjustment for iron status and inflammation.

Fig. 2

Blue dots indicate each child’s estimated mean hepcidin value after multivariate adjustment for ferritin, CRP, UIBC, and granulocyte number. In the unadjusted data, green indicates habitual iron absorbers (hepcidin <5.5 ng/ml); red indicates habitual iron blockers (hepcidin >5.5 ng/ml). The horizontal red line shows the threshold separating absorbers from nonabsorbers.
