[Iron as yet another risk factor in heart diseases?].
The hypothesis is discussed indicating that iron present in excess is one of the factors of ischaemic heart disease. This is an alternative hypothesis to many existing hypotheses. It explains certain relationships difficult to explain according to other hypotheses. This hypothesis, suggesting reduction of iron stores in the organism as a protective mechanism against ischaemic heart disease has, apart from theoretical importance, also a practical importance since it indicates the methods of preventing this disease.
