Effect of Diurnal Variation on the Measurement of Serum Iron and Tibc Levels in Healthy Population

Abstract

Background: It is well-known that deciency or over exposure to various elements has noticeable effects on human health. The effect of an element is determined by several characteristics, including absorption, metabolism, and degree of interaction with physiological processes. Iron is an essential element for almost all living organisms as it participates in a wide variety of metabolic processes, including oxygen transport, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis, and electron transport. The Study was Conducted Material and Methods: in department of Biochemistry Guru Gobind Singh Medical College Faridkot. Ethical clearance was taken from institutional ethical committee. Proper informed consent was taken from all the participitants. Out of 60 healthy patients, 30 were males and 30 females. The Correlation between iron in three time Result: intervals on the same day (Morning – Evening and Morning – Afternoon )for morning – afternoon values, the p value was <0.001 and the r value was 0.920. For morning – evening, the p value was <0.001 and r value was 0.928, which shows statistically highly signicant correlation. Conclusion: It was conducted that Iron levels showed signicant diurnal variations on same day samples. The variation was statistically non signicant for TIBC. Also no consistant pattern has observed for iron variation. So the time of day for Iron &TIBC estimation does not hold much value and only a fasting sample is required.

“…Region-Based can also be viewed as a pixel-based image segmentation technique. Methods for Region-Based Segmentation are Region for Growing, Splitting and combining, for higher information [10] ➢ Segmentation Based on Pixel (Threshold) Depending on the segmentation of images intensity levels. This method divides the image into local regions, each of which has a unique threshold based on its features.…”
