The diagnosis of iron deficiency is based on ferritin and transferrin saturation (TfS) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, yet guideline thresholds are not evidence-based. Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is one of the best noninvasive tests in patients with inflammation.

Abstract

The diagnosis of iron deficiency is based on ferritin and transferrin saturation (TfS) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, yet guideline thresholds are not evidence-based. Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is one of the best noninvasive tests in patients with inflammation.
