6 Δεκ 2019 · Iron deficiency (ID) affects billions of people worldwide and remains the leading cause of anemia with significant negative impacts on health. Our approach to ID and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) involves three steps (I 3): (1) identification of ID/IDA, (2) investigation of and management of the underlying etiology of ID, and (3) iron repletion.
4 Δεκ 2020 · Diagnosing and treating iron deficiency become more of a challenge because markers of iron status are influenced by low-grade inflammation present in common conditions, such as chronic kidney disease, cirrhosis, or heart failure.
15 Ιουλ 2024 · Most of the iron is in the hemoglobin (Hb) of red blood cells (RBCs); thus, blood loss is the main cause of iron deficiency (ID) worldwide, and reduced hemoglobin synthesis and anemia are the most common consequences of low plasma iron concentrations.
Increased gastrointestinal bleeding creates an iron deficit through blood loss and leads to iron-deficiency anaemia. Intestinal haemorrhage can be a result of gastric or duodenal ulcers eroding into blood vessels or due to the presence of a gastric cancer. Inflammatory bowel disease also causes bleeding and subsequent iron loss.
24 Αυγ 2016 · Iron deficiency anemia results from a reduction of the body’s iron content due to blood loss, inadequate dietary iron intake, its malabsorption, or increased iron demand.
Although the most common causes of IDA are gastrointestinal bleeding and menstruation in women, decreased dietary iron and decreased iron absorption are also culpable causes. Patients with IDA should be treated with the aim of replenishing iron stores and returning the haemoglobin to a normal level.
10 Σεπ 2024 · The diagnosis of iron deficiency (low iron stores, as measured by iron studies or other testing) is a major public health goal and an important aspect of the care of many adults. This topic will review the causes of iron deficiency in adults and an approach to the diagnostic evaluation.
