“…Our study group showcased a 2.5% prevalence of anemia, lower than the one reported in other studies, 1,[16][17][18] with the exception of a Swiss study that also reported a low prevalence of IDA during pregnancy (3%). 19 The lower prevalence of IDA may be due to the demographic features of our study group, which only included women until the 20 th week of pregnancy.…”

RESUMOIntrodução: A anemia e a carência de ferro são problemas de saúde globais e são mais frequentes em grávidas, mulheres em idade reprodutiva e crianças. O objetivo deste trabalho consistiu na avaliação da prevalência de anemia ferropénica e dos fatores de risco associados à ferropénia, na primeira metade da gravidez, numa amostra da população portuguesa. ABSTRACT Introduction: Anemia and iron deficiency during pregnancy are a worldwide concern and are more frequent among women of reproductive age, pregnant women, and young children. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia and the risk factors for iron depletion during the first half of pregnancy, in a Portuguese population. Material and Methods:A prospective study was conducted at a tertiary hospital and included pregnant women, until the 20th week of gestation. Data was collected regarding demographic and pregnancy features and hemoglobin and serum ferritin concentrations were determined. A multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify potential risk factors for iron deficiency. Results: Two hundred and one women were included, from which five (2.49%) presented anemia. Additionally, 77 (38.3%) exhibited iron deficiency and 22 (10.9%) revealed severe iron depletion. Maternal age was the only risk factor identified. The odds ratio (OR) was equal to 12.99 (95% CI 2.41 -70.0) for women under twenty years of age and 2.09 (95% CI 1.05 -4.14) for women older than thirty years of age. Discussion and Conclusion:The prevalence of maternal anemia in the first half of pregnancy was lower than in other studies. However, more than one-third of the women exhibited iron deficiency. With the exception of maternal age, no other risk factors were identified.

“…A pesar de este avance, aún continúa como un problema de salud pública de moderada intensidad, según la clasificación de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (8) . Además, se debe tener en cuenta que la distribución de esta enfermedad responde a múltiples factores, encontrándose fuertemente asociada a variables sociodemográficas y territoriales (9)(10)(11) que, en un país tan diverso como el Perú, confluyen para generar marcadas disparidades y el mantenimiento de zonas con altas prevalencias de anemia gestacional. En tal sentido, la identificación de patrones de distribución territorial de esta enfermedad puede ser útil para identificar zonas de mayor concentración en donde se puedan proveer mayores cuidados materno-perinatales, así como la identificación y cuantificación de otras condiciones sociodemográficas y ambientales asociadas a la anemia.…”

Objetivos. Establecer las prevalencias regionales e identificar conglomerados distritales con altas prevalencias de anemia en gestantes atendidas en los establecimientos de salud públicos del Perú en el 2015. Materiales y métodos. Se realizó un estudio ecológico de datos de gestantes con anemia, registrados en el Sistema de Información del Estado Nutricional (SIEN), que fueron atendidas en 7703 establecimientos públicos de salud durante el 2015. Se calcularon prevalencias de anemia gestacional regionales y distritales. Mediante el índice de Moran se identificaron conglomerados distritales con alta prevalencia de anemia gestacional. Resultados. Se recolectó información de 311 521 gestantes, distribuidas en 1638 distritos del Perú. La prevalencia nacional de anemia fue de 24,2% (IC 95%: 24,0-24,3) y 30,5% en el área rural vs. 22,0% en el área urbana. Las regiones de Huancavelica (45,5%; IC 95%: 44,2-46,7), Puno (42,8%; IC 95%: 41,9-43,7), Pasco (38,5%; IC 95%: 36,9-40,0), Cusco (36,0%; IC 95%: 35,8) y Apurímac (32,0%; IC 95%: 30,8-33,1) tuvieron las mayores prevalencias de anemia. El índice local de Moran identificó 202 distritos (12,3%) (44 urbanos y 158 rurales) de alta prioridad (alto-alto o hot spots) situados en Ancash, Apurímac, Arequipa, Ayacucho, Cajamarca, Cusco, Huancavelica, Huánuco, Junín, La Libertad, Lima, Pasco y Puno, que muestran conglomerados distritales con altas prevalencias. Conclusiones. La anemia gestacional en Perú concentra sus mayores prevalencias en las áreas rural y sur de la sierra. Los conglomerados distritales con altas prevalencias de anemia gestacional coinciden con las zonas de alta prevalencia regional.

To establish regional prevalences of anemia in pregnant women receiving care at public clinics in Peru in 2015 and identify high-prevalence district conglomerates. Materials and Methods. An ecological study was carried out on data from pregnant women with anemia registered on the Nutritional Status Information System (SIEN) who received care in 7703 public clinics in 2015. Regional and district prevalences of gestational anemia were calculated. District conglomerates with a high prevalence of gestational anemia were identified using the Moran Index. Results. Information was gathered from 311,521 pregnant women distributed in 1638 districts in Peru. The national prevalence of anemia was 24.2% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 24.0-24.3%), the rural prevalence was 30.5%, and the urban prevalence was 22.0%. The regions of Huancavelica (45.5%; 95% CI: 44.2-46.7%), Puno (42.8%; 95% CI: 41.9-43.7%), Pasco (38.5%; 95% CI: 36.9-40.0%), Cusco (36.0%; 95% CI: 35.3-36.8%), and Apurímac (32.0%; 95% CI: 30.8-33.1%) had the highest prevalences of anemia. The local Moran Index identified 202 high-priority districts (hot spots) (12.3% of total; 44 urban and 158 rural) located in Ancash, Apurímac, Arequipa, ...

“…As shown in Table 1, 420 pregnant women participated in this survey. About 50% of them were in the age [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. The majority of the pregnant women were housewives (96.9%), and most of them were urban (56.7%), with no formal education (57.4%).…”

Anemia continues to be a major health problem affecting the mother and her neonate in the developing countries.The present study was aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of anemia among Yemeni pregnant women residing in Dhamar district 2400 meters above the sea level. This was a cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the prevalence and risk factors of anemia among Yemeni pregnant women residing in Dhamar district, 2400 meters above the sea level. A total of 420 pregnant women visiting the general Maternal and Child Center for antenatal care were randomly selected. A hemoglobin cutoff value of 12.3 g/dl was used for evaluating the prevalence of anemia, according to the recommendations of World Health Organization pertaining on altitude adjusted hemoglobin concentrations. The results found that the overall prevalence of anemia among the study population was 26.56%. Moderate-to-severe anemia accounted for almost one-quarter of the disease burden. Trimester of pregnancy and number of cesarean surgeries were retained by multivariate regression model as significant risk factors. Over first trimester, the prevalence risk for predicting anemia was more significantly associated with third trimester (APR = 3.00; 95% CI = 1.82, 4.94; P = 0.000) rather than second trimester of pregnancy (APR = 1.73; 95% CI = 1.01, 2.96; P = 0.047). The pregnant women undergone two or more cesarean surgeries were significantly at higher risk for anemia (APR = 1.63; 95% CI = 1.12, 2.38; P = 0.012). The present study revealed that anemia is still a public health problem among the pregnant women in Yemen. There is a need for intervening and controlling this jeopardy using effective programs and strategies.
