Reference Values of Ceruloplasmin across the Adult Age Range in a Large Italian Healthy Population
We showed that the normal reference curves of serum Cp vary according to sex in a large population of healthy adults. While the lower reference values did not appear to be influenced by age and sex, the upper ones differed according to sex and age showing a particularly high variability in women, possibly reflecting different hormonal status.
