Filter by:This is a sub-study parallel to ProPBM : A Randomised Control Trial Comparing a Modified Patient Blood Management Protocol Against Standard Care for Patients Undergoing Major Surgery (NCT03888768). Only female participants of ProPBM will be included in this sub-study. Association between anaemia and handgrip strength and the effect of intravenous iron therapy as part of ProPBM protocol within female participants is elucidated in this study.
Iron deficiency may play a critical role in human infertility, oocyte quality and may even play a role in endometrial receptivity. By correcting iron deficiency, low ferritin values, in infertile women with intravenous iron supplementation, embryo quality and pregnancy rates may improve. The main objective is to evaluate the effect of intravenous iron supplementation on embryo quality (number of good quality blastocysts). Randomized, double blind, parallel group, cross-over study of ferric carboxymaltose compared to placebo (NaCl infusion).
In breast reduction surgery, delayed wound healing may increase surgical site infections, cutaneous necrosis and may be related to psychological harm.Some risk factors have been identified : smoking, diabetes, overweight. A normal healing involve cellular and biochemical reactions in which iron plays an important role such as cellular respiration, redox reactions and regulation of genes involved in the cell cycle. This trial will study the relationship between iron stores and postoperative wound healing after bilateral breast reduction surgery in patients without preoperative anaemia.The primary outcome of this trial is the comparison of wound healing at post operative day 15, between patients with and without iron deficiency.
Despite its high prevalence, a recent study conducted by Prof. Cacoub (unpublished) on the french national health insurance database showed that iron deficiency was an underdiagnosed and under-treated co-morbidity. In inflammatory situations, especially during cancer, the measurement of the transferrin saturation factor is only performed in about 10% of cases whereas this measure is recommended in inflammatory situations including cancer (French Health High Authority 2011)
To assess the impact of soil iron intake from teff flour on iron status in infants in Debre Zeit, Ethiopia.
To conduct a sub-regional micronutrient survey (SRMNS) assessing the prevalence of vitamin A, Zn, and Fe status in the country
This study aims to evaluate the effect of standard heart failure therapy plus oral solution with protein succinylate iron compared to placebo on the primary end point of 6 minute walk distance at 24th week in patients with chronic ejection fraction reduction heart failure and iron deficiency.
This study investigates the effect of intravenous iron substitution in non-anaemic premenopausal women with iron deficiency on: - Changes in the cerebral Dopamine (DA) receptor density after iron substitution, shown by brain PET - Reduction of fatigue and other neuropsychological symptoms after iron supplementation
The purpose of this project to examine brain functions and behavior related to ID including sensory ,motor, cognitive and social /emotional functioning, and address unanswered questions about brain and behavior impacts of different timing of ID(pre- and /or postnatal ID) in infants.
Healthy babies(age 8-18 months) following a routine blood count, with no anemia or iron deficiency, will be randomly placed in two groups. Group 1 will receive a 3 months preventive dose of an iron preparation (Ferripel 3 iron polysaccharide complex). Group 2 will be followed up as a control group. Following a nutritional questionnair, parents of all babies will receive instruction regarding appropriate nutrition in the 2nd year of life. A follow-up blood count will be taken from all participating babies 3 months after recruitment. The study aims to evaluate effectiveness of iron supplementation in the 2nd year of life. The hypothesis is that babies who receive iron supplementation in the 2nd year of life are less likely to develop iron deficiency or anemia.
