From: Hepatic iron overload is associated with hepatocyte apoptosis during Clonorchis sinensis infection
Assessment of hepatic iron deposition in patients with Clonorchis sinensis infection. A Iron deposits were found in liver tissue from patients (c-d) infected with C. sinensis, whereas none were recorded in normal controls (a-b). Original magnification; ×100; high power fields: ×400; Scale bar: 50 μm. B Total iron score (TIS) was significantly higher in patients infected with C. sinensis than in normal control, using Histological iron index. SIS, sinusoidal iron score; PIS, portal iron score; HIS, hepatocytic iron score. * p < 0.05
