Iron Deficiency Anaemia in Adults: Prevalence and Prevention.

Prevalence and management of cancer-related anaemia, iron deficiency and the specific role of i.v. iron.

BACKGROUND Chronic diseases reduce the availability of iron for effective erythropoiesis. This review summarises clinical consequences of iron deficiency (ID) and anaemia in cancer patients, mechanisms how impaired iron homeostasis affects diagnosis and treatment of ID, and data from clinical trials evaluating i.v. iron with or without concomitant erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs). DES...
