Given the concerns of high dose iron supplementation in ESKD among populations with high background serum ferritin levels and high comorbid cardiovascular disease, in this study, we examined the relationship between serum ferritin levels and TSAT as measures of iron status and serum ferritin levels and C-reactive protein (CRP) as markers of inflammation among Indigenous Australian patients dependent on MHD [7]. The gene discussed is CRP; the disease is cardiovascular disorder.
