Ferritin 1

The document discusses several studies related to clinical vascular disease. It includes summaries of studies that examined the relationship between initial serum ferritin levels and in-hospital mortality in STEMI patients, the efficacy and safety of saroglitazar compared to fenofibrate in patients with hypertriglyceridemia, and the clinical impact of circulating miR-21-5p levels on the severity of coronary artery disease.
