[sic], hemolytic anemia, and refractory anemia. The concentration of the iron 59 in the
plasma andthe red blood cells was determined as a function of time. One or more total
plasmairon analyses were made on each subject. In addition, clinical and laboratory
studies were carried out.
The purpose of the studies was to determine the rates of turnover of plasmairon and red
cell iron in order that comparisons might be made of the values in diseased subjects with
those of normal subjects. This report concerns the comparison of the plasma iron and the
red cell iron turnover constants with the clinical diagnosis.” (p. 34)
