Three days hypoxia (0.5 atm) increased the haemoglobin and haematocrit values in rats paralleled by enhanced intestinal iron absorption. The destination of recently-absorbed iron was primarily the erythropoietic system, viz. bone marrow, spleen and red cells. Total plasma transferrin, was increased
The interrelationships between liver iron concentration, the duration of iron-loading, and hepatic fibrosis, assessed morphometrically, have been studied in 32 specimens of liver obtained from 19 heavily transfused patients with thalassaemia major whose age ranged from 4 to 19 yr. Similar observatio
