although there was no significant ( p greater than 0.05 ) correlation between haemoglobin ( hb ) , packed cell volume ( pcv ) , plasma fe , and total iron binding capacity ( tibc ) , and erythrocyte na+ or k+ levels during iron deficiency , analysis of variance showed that hb , pcv , plasma fe and tibc in concert significantly ( p less than 0.05 ) affected erythrocyte na+ in iron-deficient rats and humans , whereas k+ was significantly ( p less than 0.05 ) affected only in rats .
