Figure 3

Serum ferritin levels of participants stratified according to BMI and haematological parameters. (a) The distribution of the ferritin levels of participants across their G6PD status (Kruskal–Wallis with Dunn’s multiple comparison test was performed). (b) The distribution of the ferritin levels of participants across their blood groups. (c) The distribution of the ferritin levels of participants across their haemoglobin types. (d) The distribution of the haemoglobin concentration of the participants across the different groups of ferritin concentration (the Mann–Whitney test was used). (e) The distribution of the platelet count of the participants across the different groups of ferritin concentration. (f) The distribution of the body mass index of the participants across the different groups of ferritin concentration. BMI: body mass index; PLT: platelet; and HB: haemoglobin.
