TL;DR: Antenatal multiple micronutrient supplements improved survival for female neonates and provided greater birth-outcome benefits for infants born to undernourished and anaemic pregnant women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential impacts of iron biofortification in India
Alexander J. Stein,J.V. Meenakshi,Matin Qaim,Penelope Nestel,H P S Sachdev,Zulfiqar A Bhutta +5 more
TL;DR: A methodology for ex ante impact assessment of iron biofortification is proposed, building on a disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) framework, and results indicate sizeable potential health benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of iron supplementation on haemoglobin response in children: systematic review of randomised controlled trials.
TL;DR: It is indicated that iron supplementation increases Hb levels in children significantly but modestly, and the increase is greater in subjects who are anaemic at the start of the trial and lower in malarial hyperendemic areas and in those consuming iron-fortified food.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of overweight and obesity amongst school children in Delhi, India.
TL;DR: The present study documented that the prevalence of overweight and obesity was higher in the HIG children as compared to the MIG and the LIG for all age groups, highlighting the possible role of change in the dietary pattern and physical activities with increase in income levels.
