Evaluation of serum transferrin receptor concentration in diagnosing and differentiating iron deficiency anaemia from anaemia of chronic disorders.

TL;DRAbstract
The results show that in case of simple IDA, sTfR concentration is significantly raised and it has a very high test efficiency in this condition. However in case of ACD the positive predictive value is high (100%) but the negative predictive value is compromised (74.1%). It is therefore a reliable laboratory index of IDA and in distinguishing IDA from ACD).
