Anemia epidemiology, pathophysiology, and etiology in low- and middle-income countries

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors outline definitions and classifications of anemia, describe the biological mechanisms through which anemia develops, and review the variety of conditions that contribute to anemia development.

The Proportion of Anemia Associated with Iron Deficiency in Low, Medium, and High Human Development Index Countries: A Systematic Analysis of National Surveys.

TL;DR: The analyses suggest that the proportion of anemia associated with iron deficiency is lower than the previously assumed 50% in countries with low, medium, or high Human Development Index ranking, and should be based on an analysis of country-specific data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methodologic approach for the Biomarkers Reflecting Inflammation and Nutritional Determinants of Anemia (BRINDA) project

TL;DR: The BRINDA project refines approaches to interpret iron and vitamin A biomarker values in settings of inflammation and malaria infection and suggests the use of a new regression approach as well as proposes an anemia framework to which real-world data can be applied.

Child development: risk factors for adverse outcomes in developing countries

TL;DR: The evidence is sufficient to warrant interventions for malaria, intrauterine growth restriction, maternal depression, exposure to violence, and exposure to heavy metals, including iron deficiency anaemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

What are biomarkers

TL;DR: Working definitions and a conceptual framework are provided to understand the roles of biomarkers in clinical research and considers select cases in which misunderstandings about the terms led to flawed research conclusions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anaemia in low-income and middle-income countries

TL;DR: Anaemia is disproportionately concentrated in low socioeconomic groups, and that maternal anaemia is strongly associated with child anaemia, and the epidemiology, clinical assessment, pathophysiology, and consequences of anaemia in low-income and middle-income countries are reviewed.
