The results of this study underscore the urgent need for intervention to address iron deficiency among pregnant women in the Narayanganj district. Previous Bangladesh-based studies reported positive associations between drinking water iron and iron status [13, 14, 22]. In a high groundwater iron ...
Suspected study participants having anemia were tested for iron status by serum ferritin test. Pregnant women having both anemia and iron deficiency were labeled as patients of Iron deficiency anemia. Results: The age range was 15-41 years with a mean of + / - SD of 28.13 + / - 6.61. ...
Iron deficiency (sTfR >3.3 mg/dl) was found in 40.7% of pregnant women, and anemia (Hb g/dl) in 13.6%. Non-German nationality, low educational level and young maternal age were significant risk factors for iron deficiency, while alcohol use in pregnancy, iron and folic acid supplements ...
Blood Mn levels in children and pregnant women are higher than in adults. In particular, the mean blood Mn level (1.499 μg/dL) of control infants was higher than the reference value (1.215μg/dL) for the general adult population of Korea [19] and was also higher than control adults [...
4a,d). Our data on mineral accumulation and retention enabled us to predict that IRT1 + FER1 transgenic plants of TME 204 contributed up to 40–50% of the EAR for iron for children (1–3 years old) and nonlactating, nonpregnant women, and 65–75% of the EAR for iron for ...
These indices have demonstrated a strong correlation with iron-deficient erythropoiesis and shown to be useful markers of iron deficiency in several populations, including newborns, children, adult blood donors, the elderly, pregnant women, and in patients undergoing dialysis for chronic kidney disease....
Obesity among pregnant women may adversely affect both maternal iron status throughout pregnancy and placental transfer of iron. The objective of this study was to determine the association of maternal body mass index (BMI) with (1) maternal iron status and inflammation in mid and late pregnancy,...
The Spearman correlation test was used for calculating the asso- ciations between cellular and serum iron status parameters, and EPO concen- tration, or pH level. The blood count and serum iron status measurements of the pregnant women were used to analyze the possible effects of maternal ...
pregnant mice were exposed to an atmosphere containing 6% oxygen for 4 hours on E9.5, and embryos collected immediately after exposure. RNA was isolated from GFP+ cells from five individual somite-matched embryos for each condition and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) was performed. Unsupervised hierarchica...
(12.7%). The population most affected are women, and there is a particularly high prevalence among pregnant women (41.8%) [2]. The most common cause of anaemia is iron deficiency, which accounts for up to 50% of anaemia cases [3]. Iron-deficiency anaemia (IDA) is one of the five ...
