Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency Anaemia in Women
Best Practice and Research in Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2017Iron deficiency (ID) is the most common micronutrient deficiency worldwide with >20% of women experiencing it during their reproductive lives. Hepcidin, a peptide hormone mostly produced by the liver, controls the absorption and regulation of iron. Understanding iron metabolism is pivotal in the successful management of ID and iron deficiency anaemia ...

Iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia in women
Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 2014Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional problems in the world and disproportionately affects women and children. Stages of iron deficiency can be characterized as mild deficiency where iron stores become depleted, marginal deficiency where the production of many iron-dependent proteins is compromised but hemoglobin levels are normal and ...

New Insights Into Iron Deficiency and Iron Deficiency Anemia
Blood Reviews, 2017Recent advances in iron metabolism have stimulated new interest in iron deficiency (ID) and its anemia (IDA), common conditions worldwide. Absolute ID/IDA, i.e. the decrease of total body iron, is easily diagnosed based on decreased levels of serum ferritin and transferrin saturation.

Iron deficiency and iron overload
Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 1985An up to date review of our knowledge of human iron metabolism is given including problems of iron balance, internal transport, and intracellular mechanisms. Current knowledge of the iron proteins is summarized and this background is used in discussing the pathophysiology of iron deficiency and overload, together with the internal derangements such as ...

Iron deficiency and pseudo-iron deficiency in hospitalized horses
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1986SUMMARY Values for serum ferritin, serum iron, and serum total-iron binding capacity were determined in 100 hospitalized horses. Six foals had iron deficiency, as indicated by low serum ferritin and iron concentrations. Twenty-eight horses had low serum iron content and normal or high serum ferritin content and were considered to have pseudo-iron ...

Iron‐deficiency in the Tropics
Scandinavian Journal of Haematology, 1977Different populations in the tropics show wide variation in their iron status, even when living in the same area. These differences range from the most profound iron‐deficiency anaemia to nutritional haemosiderosis.The extremes of dietary iron content so far reported are 5 mg per day in Mauritius to 180 mg per day in Ethiopia.

Prevalence of iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anaemia in Benin
Public Health, 1988Iron status, haemoglobinopathies and malarial infection were assessed in a representative sample of 2,968 subjects living in three rural districts and two urban districts of South Benin. Iron deficiency, defined by two or more abnormal values in the 4 independent indicators of iron status used (transferrin saturation, erythrocyte protoporphyrin, serum ...

Iron Deficiency and Educational Deficiency
Nutrition Reviews, 2009Existing data suggest that iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a risk factor for poor educational performance in schoolchildren. The synergistic effect of IDA in combination with other forms of malnutrition and other risk factors may affect educational performance more strongly.
