Spanish term or phrase: T 262
Hi all,

Can anyone confirm if "T" = T-cell here? It seems pretty low. The patient is 83 years old, ex-smoker, ex-heavy drinker, with hypertension and dyslipidaemia plus various CV/heart problems.

"Fe 35, ferritina 155, ***** T 262 ******, CFT 333....."

Thanks for any help.

4.6. Métodos
Debido al interés creciente en torno al metabolismo y transporte del hierro (Fe), se han establecido métodos exactos, sensibles y reproducibles para la determinación tanto del hierro sérico (FeS) como de la proteína que lo transporta, la transferrina (T), sea que la medición de ésta se haga en forma directa o indirectamente como la capacidad latente de fijación (CLF) o como capacidad total de fijación (CTF).

Transferrins are iron-binding blood plasma glycoproteins that control the level of free iron (Fe) in biological fluids.[5] Human transferrin is encoded by the TF gene.

Hopefully someone will be able to confirm that I'm right.

RESULTS—Higher concentrations of both ferritin and transferrin were associated with the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) and the National Cholesterol Education Program Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults Adult Treatment Panel III original and revised definitions of the metabolic syndrome at baseline:
