AB  - Iron is an essential mineral required for a variety of vital biological functions. C-reactive protein (CRP) is widely used as a routine marker of chronic or acute inflammation. Both iron deficiency and excess induce proinflammatory activity in the body. We clinically observed that C-reactive protein, which was high before iron treatment, decreased after iron treatment. We aimed to investigate the authenticity of this clinical observation and compare our results with the literature. In this single-center, prospective study, 170 female patients of reproductive age who were found to have iron deficiency anemia according to the 2001 WHO iron deficiency criteria were included in this study, with the approval of the ethics committee. Hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, leukocyte, platelet, ferritin, folate, C-reactive protein values were recorded at the time of first admission and 4-8 weeks after the treatment. An increase in the levels of mean hemoglobin (11.7±1.4 vs 9.5±1.7; p<0.001), mean HCT (36.0±3.6 vs 30.7±4.7; p<0.001), mean MCV (76.7±7.8 vs 70.0±9.2; p<0.001), and median ferritin (43 vs 3.6; p<0.001) was observed in addition to a decrease in the levels of median platelet (273 vs 302; p<0.001) and median CRP (0.9 vs 1.3; p<0.001) in all patients after the treatment versus baseline.In the light of the results of our study and the literature, we can say that iron deficiency causes a chronic inflammatory process.

N2  - Demir, çeşitli hayati biyolojik işlevler için gerekli olan temel bir mineraldir. C-reaktif protein, kronik veya akut inflamasyonun rutin bir belirteci olarak yaygın şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Hem demir eksikliği hem de fazlalığı vücutta proinflamatuar bir duruma neden olur. Demir tedavisi öncesi yüksek olan C-reaktif proteinin, demir tedavisi sonrası düştüğünü klinik olarak gözlemledik. Bu klinik gözlemin gerçekliğini araştırmayı ve sonuçlarımızı literatürle karşılaştırmayı amaçladık.Tek merkezli, prospektif planlanmış bu çalışmaya etik kurul onayı alınarak, 2001 WHO demir eksikliği kriterlerine göre demir eksikliği anemisi saptanan reprodüktif çağda 170 kadın hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların ilk başvuru sırasındaki ve tedaviden 4-8 hafta sonraki hemoglobin, hematokrit, ortalama eritrosit hacmi, lökosit, trombosit, ferritin, folat, C-reaktif protein değerleri kaydedildi. Tüm hastalarda tedavi sonrası tedavi öncesine kıyasla ortalama hemoglobin (11,7±1,4 vs 9,5±1,7; p<0,001), ortalama HCT (36,0±3,6 vs 30,7±4,7; p<0,001), ortalama MCV (76,7±7,8 vs 70,0±9,2; p<0,001) ve ortanca ferritin (43 vs 3,6; p<0,001) düzeylerinde artış saptandı, ortanca platelet (273 vs 302; p<0,001) ve ortanca CRP (0,9 vs 1,3; p<0,001) düzeylerinde düşüş saptandı. Çalışmamızın sonuçları ve literatür bilgileri ışığında demir eksikliğinin kronik inflamatuar bir sürece yol açtığını söyleyebiliriz.
