| Abstract |
Erythrocyte indices LHD and Maf are complementary parameters to complete blood count and have been shown as reliable iron deficiency markers in different clinical settings. The aim of the study was to assess diagnostic performances of LHD and Maf in detecting iron deficiency in nonanaemic stable COPD patients. A total of 93 nonanaemic stable COPD patients were classified as either iron deficient (ID, N = 15) or non-iron deficient (non-ID, N = 78). Iron deficiency was defined as a ferritin level < 100 μg/L with a transferrin saturation (TSAT) <20%. A complete blood count, including LHD and Maf as well as other relevant inflammation and iron status parameters were obtained for all participants. Both LHD and Maf have shown significant differences between the ID and non-ID group with p = .003 and p = .007 respectively. The AUC for LHD was .744 (95% CI: .626-.863, p = .003) with the best cut-off of 5.85 and sensitivity of 80% (95% CI: 76.0-84.0) and specificity of 61.5% (95% CI: 58.4-64.6). The AUC for Maf was .707 with optimal cut-off value 12.65 and sensitivity of 83.3% (95% CI: 79.1-87.5) and specificity of 60.0% (95% CI: 57.0-63.0). Furthermore, LHD performance was not affected by vitamin B12 status. LHD and Maf are useful for iron deficiency diagnosis in stable COPD patients. LHD was shown to be resistant to vitamin B12 deficiency, which is of substantial importance in specific patient subpopulations. Both parameters are not technology-dependant and do not require additional sample and/or reagent volume, which makes them cost-effective and convenient for everyday use. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 February 2023.
All research outputs
#16,492,007
of 24,267,449 outputs
Outputs from International Journal of Laboratory Hematology
#380
of 824 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#248,425
of 442,085 outputs
Outputs of similar age from International Journal of Laboratory Hematology
#5
of 14 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,267,449 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 824 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.5. This one is in the 38th percentile – i.e., 38% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,085 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 14 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 21st percentile – i.e., 21% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
