What is a toxic ferritin level?
Levels higher than 800 mcg/dL are associated with severe toxicity. Patients with serum iron levels higher than 1000 mcg/dL should be in a facility that can provide age-appropriate intensive care.
What causes elevated ferritin?
The most common causes of elevated ferritin levels are obesity, inflammation, and daily alcohol intake. The most common causes of genetic-related elevated ferritin levels is the condition hemochromatosis.
What is the difference between serum ferritin and ferritin?
Low serum iron and ferritin levels with an elevated TIBC are diagnostic of iron deficiency. While a low serum ferritin is virtually diagnostic of iron deficiency, a normal serum ferritin can be seen in patients who are deficient in iron and have coexistent diseases (eg, hepatitis or anemia of chronic disorders).
What cancers cause high ferritin levels?
In addition to breast cancer, the serum ferritin level has also been found to be elevated in patients with lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, colorectal cancer, leukemia, and lymphoma, and the level was closely associated with the prognosis.
What infections cause high ferritin?
Ferritin is an acute phase reactant and a marker of acute and chronic inflammation. It is elevated in a wide range of inflammatory conditions, including chronic kidney disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and other autoimmune disorders, acute infections, and cancer [1, 2].
Does leukemia cause high ferritin?
Raised serum ferritin levels in leukemia patients occur mainly because of increased capacity of ferritin synthesis by myelogenous cells, resulting in increased circulating ferritin concentration. During remission phase, ferritin concentration decreased but was still higher than controls.
Does fatty liver cause high ferritin levels?
Serum ferritin (SF) levels are commonly elevated in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), due to systemic inflammation, increased iron stores or both.
What foods reduce ferritin levels?
Grains, beans, nuts, and seeds All grains, legumes, seeds, and nuts contain phytic acid, or phytate, which reduces iron absorption. Eating foods high in phytates, such as beans, nuts, and whole grains, reduces the absorption of nonheme iron from plant foods. As a result, it may reduce total iron levels in the body.
