Quiz on Differentiating Iron Deficiency Anemia from Anemia of Chronic Disease: What Laboratory Findings Distinguish Them?

Dear doctors, participate in this fun and exciting quiz on anemia. Differentiating iron deficiency anemia from anemia of chronic disease involves analyzing laboratory findings. Key indicators include serum ferritin levels, transferrin saturation, and total iron-binding capacity. In iron deficiency anemia, ferritin is low, while in chronic disease, it may be normal or elevated. Participate now.

1. Serum ferritin levels are typically low in iron deficiency anemia and normal or elevated in anemia of chronic disease.

2. In iron deficiency anemia, total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) is usually decreased.

3. Transferrin saturation is a reliable marker for distinguishing between iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease.

4. Anemia of chronic disease is primarily caused by inadequate dietary iron intake.

5. Reticulocyte counts are often elevated in both iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease.
