[Iron and transferrin in the blood serum of the patients with acute cerebral vascular disease].
The purpose of this study was to determine the ferrokinetics in patients suffering from acute cerebral vascular diseases by assaying the iron and transferrin levels in the blood serum. Studies were performed on 80 patients. Also a single estimation of the haemoglobin level and of the red blood cell counts were performed in each patient. The iron level in the blood serum was assayed by photocolorimetry, while the level of transferrin was tested by radial immunodiffusion technique. The obtained results were analysed statistically by t-Student test. The accepted significance level was p < 0.05. In all groups of stroke patients a decrease of the average iron level and increase of the average transferrin level in the blood serum was found. It can be explained by the general disorders of the metabolism during the course of acute cerebral vascular disorders and feed-back mechanism.
