Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common nutritional anemia and considered a major public health problem worldwide. This cross-sectional study was carried out to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of IDA among 187 children aged below 15 years from rural areas in Yemen. Clinical data was collected by measuring hemoglobin level (Hb), serum iron (SI), serum ferritin (SF), and total...

The cause-effect relationship between iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and osteoporosis has not been established in the general population. Thus, the current longitudinal study determined the role of IDA as a risk factor for osteoporosis by analyzing a large nationwide population-based sample. In a sample of 1,000,000 randomly sampled individuals from the 1998-2012 Taiwan National Health Insurance ...

The Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) represents a promising design approach to assess the performance and post-earthquake load carrying capacity of steel frames. Generally, only maximum transient inter-story drift is considered as damage intensity measure (DM), when IDA carried out. In Authors' opinion, better appraise all aspects characterizing state structures, additional DMs should be cons...

Whether being overweight or obese is associated with increased risk of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) remains controversial. We evaluated the dietary intakes and risk for IDA in relation to body mass index (BMI). One thousand two hundred and seventy-four females aged ≥ 19 years, enrolled in the third Nutrition and Health Survey in Taiwan (NAHSIT) 2005-2008, were selected. Half of the women were e...

BACKGROUND Classic dynamic hepatobiliary scintigraphy (DHBS) is commonly performed with 99mTc-Iminodiacetic Acid (IDA) derivatives and represents a non-invasive diagnosis method for biliary dyskinesia, fistulas, surgical anastomosis, etc (1). This study assesses the possibility of performing DHBS with 99mTc-Tetrofosmine (TF), a radiopharmaceutical (RF) dedicated to myocardial perfusion scintigr...

Amid recent progress in cognitive development research, high-quality data resources are accumulating, and data sharing and secondary data analysis is becoming an increasingly valuable tool. Integrative data analysis (IDA) is an exciting analytical framework that can enhance secondary data analysis in powerful ways. IDA pools item level data across multiple studies to make inferences possible bo...

This report is a detailed study of physical security methods available for protecting a data center. A preliminary analysis has been done on the data center located at the Department of Computer and Information Science (IDA) of Linköping University, Sweden. Various traditional methods for physical security are discussed in this report along with their implementation. The two appropriate solutio...

The seismic response assessment of rocking systems via Incremental Dynamic Analysis (IDA) is investigated, focusing on the issues that arise in analysis and postprocessing stages. Rocking IDA curves generally differ from those hysteretic structural due to (i) frequent appearance resurrections; (ii) their highly weaving non-monotonic behavior; (iii) overall high variability. Hence, including or ...
