I think about ferritin in the context of HS ERP and I like what you guys are doing here I'm trying to triangulate among all the inflammatory markers and see if there's something raising all of them
The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
if ferritin is super high but all the other inflammatory markers are low I'm thinking that's exactly right maybe I do need a test for hemochromatosis
if your ferritin is elevated you should look at inflammatory markers as well and figure out what is causing inflammation which is sort of the theme for everything yep generally that increases just it being an acute phase reactant yep excuse phase reactant being like an inflammatory marker with fibrinogen HSC RP ferritin those are all acute phase reactions sometimes we use something called ESR which is a retro site sedimentation rate
