TF and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: In the conservative analyses, we found no evidence of association between four biomarkers of iron status and ALS using IVW method with odds ratio (OR) 1.00 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.90–1.11] per standard deviation (SD) increase in iron, 0.96 (95% CI: 0.77–1.21) in ferritin, 0.99 (95% CI: 0.92–1.07) in transferrin saturation, and 1.04 (95% CI: 0.93–1.16) in transferrin.
