  • The level of serum ferritin, an acute phase protein, is increased in an inflammatory environment
  • Previous studies have reported that elevated serum ferritin levels are associated with insulin resistance syndrome, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, and metabolic syndrome as risk factors of CKD
  • elevated serum ferritin levels in hemodialysis patients predict higher mortality
