Intravenous iron therapy restores functional iron deficiency induced by infliximab.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Infliximab (IFX) and iron sucrose (FeS) are of high value in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed to assess the relative role of both therapies in IBD related anaemia and their safety when used in combination. METHODS IBD patients with anaemia receiving a first series of FeS infusions in addition to IFX were prospectively followed. We investigated serum kinetics of e...

Anemia is one of the most widespread public health problems, especially in developing countries, and has important health and welfare, social, and economic consequences.

متن کاملVitamin C and functional iron deficiency anemia in hemodialysis☆

Its high prevalence in these countries is attributable not only to the poor availability of iron in diets because of high fiber and phytate content, but also to chronic blood losses due to hookworm, schisto somiasis, and malaria (1). A high prevalence of iron deficiency anemia obviously means an equal o...
