Evaluation of anemia and iron status in Japanese patients with gynecological malignancy: retrospective cohort study
Anemia and iron deficiency were prevalent among Japanese patients with gynecological cancers. TSAT < 20% before treatment was associated with more severe anemia during treatment. TSAT may be a useful biomarker for predicting and managing treatment-related anemia. Early intervention based on TSAT levels could help maintain hemoglobin levels and prevent treatment interruption.
