@nihardesai7 @acweyand One of my all time favorite papers comparing iron labs to marrow iron stores, including separating by inflammatory and non-inflammatory conditions: https://t.co/EDT43yzGkJ Ferritin is king. The likelihood ratios for %sat are meh tb
@acweyand @nihardesai7 totally disagree. https://t.co/8fk3FZDL5g
@AaronGoodman33 this is gem from @GuyattGH is the black belt for iron deficiency since it's where the money is usually at to decide if further diagnostic investigation needed ferritin <15 amazing, <15-30 very good, tapers off except in acute inflam
@Factor_XII Agree - unless there is a concern for “functional iron deficiency” like CHF or renal disease where there is some RCT for iron. Ferritins over 100 rule out true iron deficiency https://t.co/GHxDZlO7mU
Figure comes from this study in JGIM: https://t.co/4SpG2MAIrr And of course this famous paper from Guyatt et al: https://t.co/RQtTKHkBBS
@heme_fan Labs should just report the LRs! Ref: https://t.co/RaiixAEtxp https://t.co/qVprVV1Vhx
@DrCMcMaster @JeremySussman @stephensenn Even worse, we actually have LRs that can give much much more info for Bayesian thinking, curtesy of the inimitable Gordon Guyatt. A ferritin of ~20 in some1 w/o an inflammatory condition has an of LR 8-9! https:/
RT @Bloodman: @tony_breu @AdamRodmanMD @FreedoBaggins This is still my favorite paper analyzing tests for iron deficiency. https://t.co/T4U…
My go to paper for test characteristics for diagnosing iron deficiency (and why I'm a staunch ferritin advocate)

@Pahwa Here you go! Laboratory diagnosis of iron-deficiency anemia: an overview. https://t.co/YwpOGaOH1B
Clinicians should be aware of the best test for #iron deficiency – serum ferritin – and be able to interpret its results. https://t.co/fgNlHXCRxj https://t.co/LUuUzU2MR6
