ABSTRACT
Erythropoietin level in the blood plasma, iron metabolism, and some erythron parameters characterizing anemia expression, erythropoiesis effectiveness and processes of hemoglobin synthesis were studied in patients with iron-deficiency anemia (IDA). The results of the investigation helped the authors to establish that hormone production in IDA patients is under the control of a feedback mechanism that is functioning at a lower level as compared to other non-renal anemias. It has been suggested that optimum possible erythron functioning in IDA patients is achieved under these conditions.
