The paper presents our own data on the study of the content of hepcidin in the blood in iron deficiency anemia and in anemia that developed in patients with rheumatoid arthritis and bacterial infections. Our own data on the content of hepcidin in practically healthy people are presented. The results of the study indicate an extremely low level of hepcidin in iron deficiency anemia, while in patients with anemia of chronic diseases, the content of hepcidin is significantly high. There were no differences in the levels of hepcidin in people with ACD in rheumatoid arthritis and in bacterial infections of various localizations. The study of the level of hepcidin in the blood serum can be used in the algorithm for the differential diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia and functional iron deficiency.
