Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Background and objectives: Although the genetic determinants of haemoglobin and ferritin have been widely studied, those of the clinically and globally relevant iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) and deferral due to hypohaemoglobinemia (Hb-deferral) are unclear. In this investigation, we aimed to quantify the value of genetic information in predicting IDA and Hb-deferral.

6,714 Finnish (founder/genetic isolate) cases, 21,189 Finnish (founder/genetic isolate) controls
