Filter by:The specific aims of the current study were: 1) To determine the prevalence of IDNA in a sample of female rowers at the beginning of a training season; 2) To determine how IDNA affects endurance training and performance at the beginning of a training season; 3) To determine how iron supplementation affects iron status, training and performance in IDNA female collegiate rowers. The researchers hypothesized that IDNA affects endurance performance in female collegiate rowers both in and outside of the laboratory, and that iron supplementation of IDNA rowers will improve iron status, and consequently, training quality via increased energetic efficiency.
This study is designed to evaluate efficacy and dose-dependency of 5-aminolevulinic acid in subjects with iron deficiency anemia.
The aim of the study is to recruit 30 patients who have been referred to Auerach Hematology Oncology Assoc. for the treatment of iron defeciency anemia with iv iron (Ferumoxytol 1020 mg) administered via infusion pump over 15 minutes. To ascertain acute safety and tolerability of ferumoxytol during immediate post dosing observation period. Assess additional safety profile and laboratory assessment at follow up visit and interim telephone follow up.
Effect of intravenous iron substitution (iron carboxymaltose (Ferinject®), total dose 15 mg/ kg (maximal dose: 1000mg) in 250 ml 0.9 % NaCl; intravenous infusion in 20 min)in non-anemic premenopausal women with iron deficiency on Primary objective: - Mitochondrial capacity (Phosphocreatine Recovery rate assessed by 31P-MR-spectroscopy of the lower leg muscle) Secondary objectives: - Maximal oxygen uptake during a graded cycling exercise test and time to exhaustion at submaximal power during a constant-load cycling exercise test - Plantarflexor muscle fatiguability as assessed by isokinetic dynamometry - Trial with medicinal product
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST10-021, an oral ferric iron preparation, is safe and effective in the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in subjects with non-active Crohn's Disease (CD).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST10-021, an oral ferric iron preparation, is safe and effective in the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in subjects with non-active ulcerative colitis (UC).
The CHICA system is a clinical decision support system that uses adaptive turnaround documents to provide point-of-care information to clinicians. The investigators will be studying whether it can help in the diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis and iron deficiency anemia.
Iron deficiency (ID) is still a main public health problem in sub-Saharan Africa. Iron deficient children have an increased risk for anemia which is associated with adverse infant development that might be partly irreversible. In sub-Saharan Africa, the etiology of ID in children is multifactoral; but the major causes are low iron dietary bioavailability and intake from monotonous cereal-based complementary foods. Children < 5 years old can benefit from iron-fortified complementary foods; however, these fortified complementary foods are often not adapted to the requirements of children in specific setting. The investigators developed a complementary food fortificant (CFF) which is added to local porridge and is deemed to meet the nutrient intake requirement for iron in children 1-3 years of age. The CFF is lipid-based and can therefore, if regularly used, increase the daily energy intake of children which is often too low in developing countries with cereal-based diets. The iron absorption from the mixture of CFF and porridge has to be optimized because it contains quite a high amount of phytate, a well-known inhibitor of iron absorption. To optimize iron absorption the investigators are planning three iron absorption studies using different compounds of iron (FeSO4 + NaFeEDTA), additional vitamin C and phytase, which is able to degrade phytate. In the first study, iron absorption will be determined from a mixture of CFF and porridge fortified with 1) 6 mg FeSO4 and 2) 6 mg FeSO4 plus additional vitamin C. In the second study, the test meals will be fortified with 1) 6 mg FeSO4 and 2) a mixture of 3 mg FeSO4 + 3 mg NaFeEDTA. In the third study, test meals will be fortified with 1) 6 mg FeSO4, 2) 6 mg FeSO4 plus phytase, and 3) 6 mg FeSO4 plus additional vitamin C and phytase. Iron absorption will be determined by incorporation of labeled iron into erythrocytes, 14 days after the administration of a test meal containing labeled iron (stable isotope technique). Sixty apparently healthy Beninese children 12-36 months of age with a body weight > 8.3 kg will be included in the study. Additionally, the investigators will test acceptability of CFFs based on different composition formulas by interviewing the parents/legal guardians of the children after feeding the CFF for a defined period. The results of these studies will provide important insights to optimize the iron absorption of young children from a CFF mixed with local traditional porridge in developing countries. Furthermore the studies will provide information on the acceptability of CFFs in such a setting.
The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of an investigational intravenous iron (ferric carboxymaltose [FCM]) or an equal dose of iron dextran and explore the mechanism of hypophosphatemia following administration of FCM or that of an equal dose of iron dextran when treating women with iron deficiency anemia due to heavy uterine bleeding (HUB).
The purpose of this study is to compare safety and the oxidative stress potential of two doses of an investigational IV iron, ferric carboxymaltose (FCM), compared to an equal single dose of IV iron sucrose or IV iron dextran in the treatment of Iron Deficiency Anemia (IDA) in female subjects.
