ESR (Westergen) correlated significantly with the iron status (as measured by Hb concentration, haematocrit, red cell count, MCH, P/H ratio, serum iron, TIBC and percent saturation of transferrin) in a group of pregnant women (PW) at term. Serum ferritin correlated negatively with the ESR but the correlation was not statistically significant. Serum ferritin levels of < 50 micrograms/L were present in 9 (34.6%) PW with ESR > or = 50 mm 1st hour and 5 (19.2%) PW with ESR < 50 mm 1st hour. The mean ESR in PW was 55.7 (+/- 22.9) and was > or = 50 mm 1st hour in 50% and < 75 mm 1st hour in 82.7%. The difference in the mean ESR in anaemic and nonanaemic PW was highly significant (p < 0.001), 87.5% anaemic PW with serum ferritin > 50 micrograms/L had ESR > or = 50 mm 1st hour, suggesting the possible effect of chronic infection in raising ferritin levels in these PW.
在一组足月孕妇中,红细胞沉降率(魏氏法)与铁状态(通过血红蛋白浓度、血细胞比容、红细胞计数、平均红细胞血红蛋白含量、P/H比值、血清铁、总铁结合力和转铁蛋白饱和度测定)显著相关。血清铁蛋白与红细胞沉降率呈负相关,但该相关性无统计学意义。红细胞沉降率≥50mm/第1小时的孕妇中有9例(34.6%)血清铁蛋白水平<50μg/L,红细胞沉降率<50mm/第1小时的孕妇中有5例(19.2%)血清铁蛋白水平<50μg/L。孕妇的平均红细胞沉降率为55.7(±22.9),50%的孕妇红细胞沉降率≥50mm/第1小时,82.7%的孕妇红细胞沉降率<75mm/第1小时。贫血孕妇和非贫血孕妇的平均红细胞沉降率差异极显著(p<0.001),血清铁蛋白>50μg/L的贫血孕妇中87.5%的红细胞沉降率≥50mm/第1小时,提示慢性感染可能对这些孕妇的铁蛋白水平升高有影响。
