Abstract Background: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA (is raised as a major public health issue leading to an increased risk of child mortality and has a negative effect on cognition and physical development. It has been suggested as a possible cause of the Attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD (. So we decided to estimate prevalence of iron deficiency anemia in children with this disorde...

Iron is an essential micronutrient for plants, and plants have evolved adaptive mechanisms to improve iron acquisition from soils. Grafting on iron deficiency-tolerant rootstock is an effective strategy to prevent iron deficiency-chlorosis in fruit-tree crops. To determine the mechanisms underlying iron uptake in iron deficiency, two iron deficiency-tolerant citrus rootstocks, Zhique (ZQ) and X...

Background: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common micronutrient deficiency in the world and almost a third of the world's population is involved with IDA. It even in mild type, could lead to serious disorders such as impairment of learning and mental focus. Reduction of iron resources results in an imbalance in the physiological function. With regard to the role of iron in myelination...

this study was conducted to evaluate the association between h. pylori infection and iron deficiency anemia (ida) among preschool children (age range: 40-75 months) at a tertiary referral hospital in tehran.in a case-control study, the prevalence of h. pylori seropositivity was compared between 64 children with ida diagnosis and 70 healthy non-anemic sex- and age-matched controls. totally, 52 (...

iron deficiency can cause cognitive and functional learning disorders in children. some studies have reported a relationship between low serum ferritin levels in patients with anemia and helicobacter pylori (h. pylori) infection. therefore, we aimed to determine the relationship between these two common diseases. this descriptive analytical cross-sectional study was performed to assess serum fe...
