As a unique electron donor and acceptor, iron is an essential element in most biological systems. However, its chemical reactivity can result in iron potentially becoming a toxin when present in excessive quantities; accordingly, total body iron must be tightly regulated. As humans have no physiological mechanism for the elimination of excess iron, body iron is controlled mainly by the degree o...
BACKGROUND Anemia continues to be a major public health problem among children in many regions of the world, and it is still not clear which strategy to treat it is most effective. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and children's acceptance of several recognized strategies to treat anemia. METHODS Non-breastfed children (n = 577), 6 to 43 mo of age, were screened for the trial; 267 were an...
BACKGROUND Pregnancy is a critical period for both woman and baby from a nutritional perspective. Nutritional education is considered an important tool for promoting a healthy lifestyle, but has not been studied as a determinant for maternal use of supplements during pregnancy, especially in Romania, where evidence about pregnancy and nutrition is scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the relati...
OBJECTIVE Worldwide attention over iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in pregnancy has shifted recently from providing supplements during pregnancy to attempting to ensure that women, especially adolescents, have adequate iron stores prior to conception. We sought to determine whether adolescent and/or adult women still need supplements during pregnancy to avoid IDA, even if iron stores are adequate,...
The biodegradation of South Louisiana (SL) crude oil and the effects of nitrogen, phosphorus, and iron supplements on this process were compared in a polluted (10,900 oil degraders per liter) and in a relatively clean (750 oil degraders per liter) littoral seawater sample taken along the New Jersey coast. Without supplements, the biodegradation of SL crude oil was negligible in both seawater sa...
Despite efforts to improve iron supplements for iron deficiency anemia, there is no consensus on products that balance efficacy, safety and tolerability, and cost. Ferrous products are effective, but they are associated with more gastrointestinal side effects than ferric products. Ferric products tend to have lower absorption. We present results from a 12-week study that randomized 72 people wi...
BACKGROUND Anaemia in pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcome. Unfortunately, in developing countries its prevalence has continued to rise. To improve the situation, iron supplement is routinely prescribed during pregnancy. We therefore examine the impact of the intervention as being currently practised in our clinical setting. METHODS In total, 255 prenatal clinic att...
BACKGROUND Iron deficiency is the most prevalent nutritional deficiency in adolescent girls from the developing world. One of the recommended interventions to improve iron status in adolescent girls is iron supplementation. Yet the provision of iron supplements to adolescent girls proved to be a challenging task for the health systems across the developing world. OBJECTIVE The objective of th...
Iron deficiency anaemia is a public health problem in Tanzania especially among children under the age of five years. In malaria holoendemic areas, control of anaemia by supplementation with iron has been reported to increase serious adverse events. The World Health Organization recommends that, programs to control anaemia in such areas should go concurrently with malaria control programmes. Th...
