Table 2 Summary of mean and standard deviation (SD) for haemoglobin (Hb) and haematinics; serum ferritin and transferrin saturation (TSAT) at baseline, 1 and 3 months

From: A multicentre prospective double blinded randomised controlled trial of intravenous iron (ferric Derisomaltose (FDI)) in Iron deficient but not anaemic patients with chronic kidney disease on functional status

  1. There was a statistically significant difference for SF and TSAT at both 1-month (p < 0.001, p < 0.001) and 3 (p < 0.001 and p = 0.001) months, respectively, with greater increases in the FDI group (Figs. 3 and 4, Table 2)
