Does hepcidin represent the balance between iron deficiency and inflammation? Hepcidin < 20 can indicate iron deficiency where inflammation has masked it according to ferritin.

@EBisbe @NATAforum Agreed. We must aim for 50% women speakers although most posters were presented by women showing amazing clinical leadership! E.g @ALICIAVILASECA @CaitLouisScott

@MarcSamama we also had gd speakers/experts/stars in the audience, who we need to put on the 2020 Athens lectern

Important revision point for all clinicians Ferritin <30 indicates absent iron stores! Overlooked in so many! And CHr - a novel but very sensitive marker! Such an interesting talk on screening and diagosis by @EBisbe @NATAforum @theironclinic @CaitLouisScott #NATAforum

"Tearing your hair out screening for Anaemia?" 450 women from general public screened: 70% had risk factors for anaemia & 72% had symptoms of ID&anaemia. Hairloss, Brainfog and Palps top three symptoms! @TobyRichardsUCL @CaitLouisScott @davejones_4 @jfjhardy #NATAforum

Brilliant First Poster at @NATAforum by Dr @CaitLouisScott! Important population of self referring female patients @theironclinic! Showing good effect increasing Hb and Ferritin! @theironclinic @dfaraoni @bhwords

A patient called in today to ask why she had to stumble upon @theironclinic online before her doctors acknowledged IV Iron as a treatment for ID. She has been battling Chronic Fatigue Syndrome for 3 years. Now 6 weeks following an Iron infusion she feels back to her normal self.
