Abstract

Worldwide, iron deficiency anemia is the most prevalence anemia, regardless of race, age, gender or geographical origin; alike there is insufficient the data and reports on the prevalence of subclinical iron states especially in the African descendant community national and internationally. The research aimed to characterize a healthy male population of African descendent aged between 16 and 30 years through the index (sTfR-Log FS) in 73 African descent men living in San Basilio de Palenque and Cartagena de Indias DT y C. Erythroid index were determined: hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit (HCT), peripheral blood smear evaluation, the soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), serum ferritin (SF) and soluble transferrin receptor index - Logarithm of serum ferritin (sTfR-Log FS). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software version 17.0.

Using the sTfR-Log FS, at San Basilio de Palenque, the hematologic finding by algorithm is most often associated with chronic disease along with iron deficiency (41.6%), followed by subclinical iron deficiency stage II (33.3%). In Cartagena, chronic iron deficiency (49%) was the most frequent found it, followed by subclinical iron deficiency stage II (20.41%). The two populations showed similar behavior in different hematologic variables, these results becoming pioneers for future research of the subclinical stages preceding iron deficiency in Colombia’s Afro-descendants.
