In oncology, anemia is a frequent symptom, leading to complication of patient management for, more or less, a long term but often poorly evaluated by medical teams. In oncology, anemia is induced by multiple causes. Iron deficiency appears to be a leading cause of anemia, especially in people with solid cancer. Iron deficiency is characterized by a low level of iron . Iron is a trace element required for life. It is a major component of hemoglobin allowing the transport of oxygen in red blood cells. There are in fact 2 types of iron deficiency: an absolute iron deficiency with a deficiency of true iron and a functional iron deficiency. Since end of January 2014, intravenous iron-based injections have been reclassified for cancer patients at ICO Paul Papin. The monitoring of iron deficiency with or without anemia is currently done in our institute, the ICO-Paul Papin. There is a procedure for the management of anemia with or without iron deficiency but there is still no traceability of treatments performed, their compliance or even their impact on the rate hemoglobin and the quality of life of patients during their treatment. This observatory also makes it possible to evaluate the impact of this treatment on the quality of life of the patients and thus allows them a personalized care of the tiredness during their treatment
Iron-deficient anaemic subjects are likely to benefit most from oral iron supplements, but supplementation schedules vary widely in clinical practice, absorption is low and compliance is poor due to mild gastrointestinal side effects. The investigators will compare iron absorption from labeled oral iron doses of 100mg and 200mg administered either on two consecutive days or on alternate days in young anemic women.
Primary Objectives: To evaluate the safety (compared to iron sucrose) and efficacy of ferumoxytol in pediatric CKD subjects with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) or who are at risk of development of IDA Secondary Objective: To determine the single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) profile of ferumoxytol in pediatric subjects.
During inflammation hepcidin concentrations are increased, leading to a decrease in iron absorption. In iron deficiency anemia hepcidin is suppressed due to the activation of erythropoiesis. Whether inflammation or anemia has the stronger effect on hepcidin is uncertain.
The purpose of this study is to measure iron absorption from maize-based porridge fortified with either apo-lactoferrin, holo-lactoferrin or ferrous sulfate and to test whether there is an effect of these. Additionally, iron absorption from maize-based porridge containing 12 mg ferrous sulfate will be measured when consumed every other day versus every third day.
1. To compare patient-reported satisfaction, efficacy and short-term safety profile of Monofer® in a single bolus dose with Venofer® in split doses in the treatment of absolute or functional iron deficiency anemia in patients on PD. 2. To compare patient symptomatology on fatigue after treatment of Monofer® compared with Venofer® .
This study evaluates the feasibility of cooking with an iron ingot, Lucky Iron Fish™ (LIF), and evaluate the natural history of hemoglobins and iron status among infants of families using this iron ingot in a population with a high prevalence of iron-deficiency anemia. Participants are mother-infant dyads, and are randomized to one of two arms: Lucky Iron Fish™or enhanced standard of care.
Association between Autism and Iron Deficiency in Children Diagnosed Autism
Randomized, placebo-controlled trial of the effect of 84 days of daily iron supplementation on iron status, gut microbiome profile, infectious disease frequency, and HIV disease severity in moderately anemic [hemoglobin 9 - <11 g/dL (6-59 mo); hemoglobin 9 - < 11.5 g/dL (5 -12 years)], HIV-infected Ugandan children between the ages of 6 mos and 12 years.
