Efficacy of a Personalized mHealth App in Improving Micronutrient Supplement Use Among Pregnant Women in Karachi, Pakistan: Parallel-Group Randomized Controlled Trial

Efficacy of a Personalized mHealth App in Improving Micronutrient Supplement Use Among Pregnant Women in Karachi, Pakistan: Parallel-Group Randomized Controlled Trial

The positive role of the m Health intervention was evident in improving daily iron supplementation; however, the adjusted analysis showed higher but insignificant odds of sufficiency. These findings are consistent with those of previous research indicating that digital health interventions have the potential to improve iron supplement uptake.

The Effect of Acupuncture on Brain Iron Deposition and Body Iron Metabolism in Vascular Cognitive Impairment: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

The Effect of Acupuncture on Brain Iron Deposition and Body Iron Metabolism in Vascular Cognitive Impairment: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

By exploring the relationship between serum iron metabolism, brain iron deposition, and cognitive impairment, researchers in various countries, including China, have found that iron deposition can lead to the development of inflammation, abnormal protein aggregation, and degeneration in the central nervous system, which in turn causes a progressive decline in cognitive function [19,20].

Determining the Actual Zinc and Iron Intakes in Breastfed Infants: Protocol for a Longitudinal Observational Study

Determining the Actual Zinc and Iron Intakes in Breastfed Infants: Protocol for a Longitudinal Observational Study

Regarding iron deficiency, the prevalence of iron deficiency among breastfed infants was found to be higher than among infants fed with formula in several studies [7,8]. A study on the iron status of infants in Bangkok showed that the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia in breastfed infants aged 1 year was 25.7%, which was higher than in formula-fed infants (2.7%) [9].

Mother and Infant Nutrition Investigation in New Zealand (MINI Project): Protocol for an Observational Longitudinal Cohort Study

Iron is required for heme-dependent thyroperoxidase activity, which is required for the synthesis of adequate thyroid hormone. Selenium deficiency and iron deficiency anemia may negatively affect thyroid hormone synthesis by impairing selenium- and iron-dependent enzyme activities, even if iodine status is adequate [5].

Dietary Intake Nutritional Status and Lifestyle of Adolescent Vegetarian and Nonvegetarian Girls in New Zealand (The SuNDiAL Project): Protocol for a Clustered, Cross-Sectional Survey

In general, vegetarian diets provide large amounts of phytate, dietary fiber, folate, vitamins C and E, and magnesium, but without planning, they may have low protein, vitamins D and B12, iron, zinc, and calcium (particularly among vegans who do not consume animal products of any kind) [8,9].
