Summary: Despite comparable treatment efficacy for iron deficiency anaemia, FCM was associated with a higher incidence of hypophosphataemia compared to FDI. Further studies are needed to investigate the long-term clinical consequences of hypophosphataemia and the mechanisms underlying the differential effects of FCM and FDI on patient-reported fatigue.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the factors affecting the erythropoietic response to parenteral iron in iron-deficient anaemic patients. It found that the nature of iron deficiency, rather than the severity of CKD, has a greater impact on Hb response to intravenous iron, with a diminished response seen in patients with functional iron deficiency regardless of the degree of renal impairment.

Summary: Fortification with multiple micronutrient powder was effective in preventing and treating iron deficiency and anemia in children aged six to 48 months. Additional supplementation of ferrous sulfate was necessary for anemic children.

Summary: Iron deficiency (ID) is a common disorder with low serum ferritin level. Transferrin saturation (TSAT) is the best indicator of iron status in early pregnancy or chronic inflammation. The guidelines do not recommend routine screening for ID, but urgent review is needed. Oral iron is associated with adverse effects, while intravenous iron is safer and more effective, especially for pregnant women with hemoglobin levels below 10.5 g/dL.

Summary: The study suggests that Si in rice not only acts as an apoplastic barrier but also protects chloroplasts, alters endoreplication cycle, providing a memory effect to cope with different stresses, which is beneficial for plants.

Summary: The complementary feeding period between 6 and 24 months is crucial for infant nutrition and development, especially in addressing iron deficiency and anemia. Healthcare providers should follow guidelines to ensure adequate iron intake and address iron deficiency in infants during this critical period.

Summary: Pseudomonas plecoglossicida infection causes a high probability (62%) of visceral white spot disease in orange-spotted grouper. After infection, the spleen mass increases and the liver mass decreases. Diseased fish suffer from anemia, hypoxia, and iron loss.

Summary: Iron is essential for life, and its deficiency can have detrimental effects on health, particularly in patients with celiac disease. The decision on how to replenish iron stores and the route of administration depends on factors such as the severity of symptoms, health-related quality of life, tolerance and efficacy of oral iron, among others.

Summary: Yield loss due to abiotic stress is a growing problem in agriculture, especially for soybean crops in the upper Midwestern United States with calcareous soils. The soybean variety Fiskeby III has unique resistance to various abiotic stresses, including iron deficiency. Silencing a MATE transporter gene (Glyma.05G001700) in Fiskeby III confirmed its role in iron stress response and revealed new genes and pathways involved in Fiskeby III's ability to quickly respond to stress. Understanding and characterizing these genes and pathways provides potential targets for improving abiotic stress tolerance in elite soybean lines.

Summary: The potential of Hibiscus sabdariffa L. beverage as a dietary iron source for sub-Saharan Africans was investigated. The iron content of the dried hibiscus calyces was found to be low and only 30% of it was extractable. Ferrous sulfate was used to fortify the beverage. The presence of polyphenols in the beverage could form non-absorbable complexes with iron, decreasing its bioaccessibility. The viability of hibiscus beverage as an iron source is impacted by extraction losses and the inhibitory effect of polyphenols.

Summary: The feasibility of monitoring anemia, iron deficiency, and iron-deficiency anemia among pregnant women using electronic health records has been assessed. This method can be used to monitor the prevalence and trends of anemia in pregnant women, but obtaining representative estimates of iron deficiency or iron-deficiency anemia may be challenging if iron assessment is not routine.

Summary: This study assessed the feasibility of anemia, iron deficiency, and iron-deficiency anemia surveillance among first-trimester pregnancies using electronic health records. It found that approximately 2.7% of pregnancies had anemia, with about half of those cases having both low hemoglobin and low hematocrit. Iron deficiency was present in approximately 26.8% of pregnancies with anemia and 23.5% of pregnancies without anemia.

Summary: Screening bicarbonate-tolerant genotypes is an effective and environmentally-friendly strategy for dealing with bicarbonate-induced chlorosis in fruit crops. This study investigated the differences in bicarbonate tolerance among eleven genotypes from four kiwifruit species. The results showed that the genotypes were classified into three groups based on their tolerance levels. Furthermore, the study explored the physiological and molecular differences between two contrasting genotypes and identified genes associated with bicarbonate tolerance mechanisms.

Summary: Transvenous lead extraction (TLE) is crucial for the long-term management of patients with cardiac implanted electronic devices (CIEDs). Our study demonstrates high procedural efficacy and safety of TLE, with more challenging procedures observed in noninfective patients. Infection may potentially hinder the formation of fibrotic adhesions during TLE procedures.
