Storage iron depletion in male blood donors: its significance for iron status in women
AUTOR(ES)
Fielding, J.
RESUMO
Among 24 male blood donors without anaemia who had been giving a mean of 2·2 donations per year involving a mean blood loss of about 900 ml a year, 10 (41%) were found to be depleted of storage iron. This is somewhat higher but similar to the previously recorded findings in healthy women without anaemia.
