“…Our study found that past or current smokers decreased the risk of anemia, and current smokers were more likely to increase Hb and Hct levels. Similarly, the previous studies showed that smoking was negatively correlated with the risk of anemia [26][27][28]. The multiple logistic regression analysis from the health check-up database of St. Luke's international hospital in Tokyo, between April 2016 and March 2017, revealed that Japanese women (35-49 years) who were past or current smokers decreased the risk of anemia by 33% (OR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.56, 0.81, p < 0.001) or 25% (OR = 0.75, 95% CI 0.56, 0.99, p = 0.045), respectively, compared to those who were non-smokers, after adjusting for the covariates [26].…”

“…Our study observed that being overweight, obese, and having central obesity were correlated with increased odds of anemia, as well as decreased Hb, Hct, and RBC levels but increased WBC and CRP levels. However, the previous study showed that overweight Japanese women (BMI: 25.0-29.9 kg/m 2 ) aged 35-49 years were more likely to have a reduced risk of anemia (OR = 0.74, 95% CI 0.59, 0.92, p = 0.007) compared to those with normal BMI (18.5-24.9 kg/m 2 ); there was no significant association between obesity and anemia [26].…”

“…The multiple logistic regression analysis from the health check-up database of St. Luke's international hospital in Tokyo, between April 2016 and March 2017, revealed that Japanese women (35-49 years) who were past or current smokers decreased the risk of anemia by 33% (OR = 0.67, 95% CI 0.56, 0.81, p < 0.001) or 25% (OR = 0.75, 95% CI 0.56, 0.99, p = 0.045), respectively, compared to those who were non-smokers, after adjusting for the covariates [26]. However, the association between past or current smoking and anemia was not statistically significant in Japanese women aged 20-34 years, in both unadjusted and adjusted models [26]. A previous study in India found that male smokers aged 30-60 years had significantly higher Hb, Hct, and RBC levels compared to male nonsmokers [27].…”

Inadequate dietary intake, poor nutritional status, heavy smoking, and alcohol consumption are associated with the risk of anemia. The objective of this study was to investigate the associations between dietary patterns, lifestyle, nutritional status, and anemia-related biomarkers among adults using a multivariable regression model. Taiwanese adults aged 20–45 years (n = 118,924, 43,055 men and 75,869 women) were obtained from the Mei Jau Health Management Institution database, between 2001 and 2015, for data analysis. The anemia–inflammation-related dietary pattern was derived by reduced rank regression analysis. Dietary patterns with high intakes of eggs, meat, organ meats, rice or flour products, fried foods, sugary beverages, and processed foods significantly increased the risk of anemia, and was associated with decreased hemoglobin, hematocrit, and red blood cells, but increased white blood cells and C-reactive protein levels. Moreover, current alcohol drinkers, as well as people who were underweight, overweight, obese, and central obese, were more likely to increase their risk of anemia by 46%, 20%, 23%, 34%, and 28%, respectively. Interestingly, participants who are current or past smokers were inversely associated with risk of anemia. In conclusion, adherence to the anemia–inflammation dietary pattern was associated with an increased risk of anemia in Taiwanese adults. Furthermore, abnormal weight status and alcohol drinking were correlated with an increased risk of anemia.

“…Anemia is one of the common and major public health and nutritional problems globally [ 1 – 3 ]. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines anemia as a condition in which the number of red blood cells (oxygen caring capacity) is not adequate to meet the body’s physiologic needs [ 1 , 2 , 4 ]. Globally, anemia affects about two billion people, or one-third of the adult population lives [ 5 – 7 ].…”

Background Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) remains the region with the highest burden of anemia globally. Since anemia has both health and non-health-related consequences, its reduction is one of the Sustainable Development Goals. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the prevalence of anemia and its associated factors among married women in SSA. Methods Using Stata version-14 software, the analysis was done on 89,029 married women from the Demographic and Health Surveys of 19 countries in SSA. Pearson Chi-Square test and Binary logistic regression analyses were used to examine the factors associated with anemia. The results were presented using adjusted Odds Ratio (aOR) at a 95% Confidence Interval (CI). A p-value less than or equal to 0.05 (p ≤ 0.05) was considered statistically significant. Results The pooled analysis showed that 49.7% of married women were anemic. Of these, 1.04% and 15.05% were severely and moderately anemic respectively, and the rest 33.61% were mildly anemic. Husband education (primary school-aOR = 0.84, 95% CI; 0.71–0.99), wealth index (middle-aOR = 0.81, 95% CI; 0.68–0.96, richer-aOR = 0.69, 95% CI; 0.57–0.84, richest-aOR = 0.68, 95% CI; 0.51–0.91), modern contraceptive use (yes-aOR = 0.68, 95% CI; 0.56–0.81) and religion (Muslim-aOR = 1.27, 95% CI; 1.11–1.46, others-aOR = 0.73, 95% CI; 0.59–0.90) were factors associated with anemia among married women. Conclusion The findings show that nearly half of the married women are affected by anemia. Enhancing partners’ educational levels, and economic empowerment of women, strengthening family planning services, and working with religious leaders to reduce the perception and religious beliefs related to food restrictions can be the main focus to reduce the burden of anemia among married women in SSA.

Folic acid is important in the process of formation and maturation of erythrocytes, so that folic acid deficiency can manifest in anemia. Anemia is defined by hemoglobin levels in preconception women <12.0 g/dl, one of which is due to the lack of erythrocyte. Globally, the prevalence of anemia in women not pregnant (childbearing age) is 1.1%, and affects 19 million women not pregnant. Prevention of anemia in women of childbearing age can improve the degree of health of pregnant women, which ultimately contributes to a decrease in maternal and perinatal death. So that in preconception care is recommended anemia prevention measures in the form of nutritional interventions, one of which is recommended to prevent folic acid deficiency. The purpose of the study was to find out the influence of folic acid on hemoglobin levels of preconception women with anemia. literature review study, study 5 articles that meet inclusion and exclusion criteria. Search through Google Scholar, Garuda, and Pubmed, keywords that iron folic acid, folic acid, and anemia in preconception. from 5 articles examined there was an influence of folic acid on hemoglobin levels in preconception women. hemoglobin levels in preconception women are influenced by the adequacy of folic acid. So folic acid deficiency has an effect on the incidence of anemia in preconception women ABSTRAK Asam folat penting dalam proses pembentukan dan pematangan eritrosit, sehingga defisiensi asam folat bisa bermanifestasi pada anemia. Anemia didefinisikan dengan kadar hemoglobin pada wanita prakonsepsi <12,0 g/dl yang salah satunya dikarenakan kurangnya jumlah eritrosit. Secara global, prevalensi anemia pada wanita tidak hamil (usia subur) yaitu 1,1%, dan mempengaruhi 19 juta wanita tidak hamil. Pencegahan anemia pada wanita usia subur dapat meningkatkan derajat kesehatan wanita hamil, yang pada akhirnya berkontribusi pada penurunan kematian ibu dan perinatal. Sehingga dalam pelayanan kesehatan prakonsepsi (preconception care) dianjurkan tindakan pencegahan anemia berupa intervensi gizi yang salah satunya dianjurkan untuk mencegah defisiensi asam folat. Tujuan penelitian untuk mengetahui pengaruh asam folat pada kadar hemoglobin wanita prakonsepsi dengan anemia. Studi literature review, menelaah 5 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Pencarian melalui Google Scholar, Garuda, dan Pubmed, kata kunci yang iron folic acid, asam folat, dan anemia in preconception. Dari 5 artikel yang ditelaah didapatkan adanya pengaruh asam folat terhadap kadar hemoglobin pada wanita prakonsepsi. Kadar hemoglobin pada wanita prakonsepsi salah satunya dipengaruhi oleh tingkat kecukupan asam folat. Sehingga defisiensi asam folat berpengaruh pada kejadian anemia pada wanita prakonsepsi.
