Exploring the Impact of Iron Deficiency Anaemia on Glycated Haemoglobin A1c Levels in Pregnant and Non-Pregnant Women: A Systematic Review.

Haemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) is fundamental in monitoring glycaemic control during pregnancy. However, several conditions could affect this test's accuracy, including iron deficiency anaemia (IDA). Hence, this systematic review delves into the underexplored connection between IDA, iron replacement therapy (IRT), and haemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) during pregnancy.

School violence in Saudi Arabia: A scoping review.

School violence comprises a broad spectrum of physical, psychological, and sexual acts that impact children and adolescents physically, psychologically, and academically. The aim of this article is to provide a scoping review of school violence in Saudi Arabia.

The Effect of Iron Replacement Therapy on HbA1c Levels in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Background: Several studies have reported that iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) and its treatment might lead to a distorted reading of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) value. Hence, this review aims to systematically investigate the effect of iron replacement therapy (IRT) on HbA1c levels, as the literature is deficient in assessing this clinical phenomenon.

Methods: An electronic search of the Cochrane, MEDLINE, and Embase databases was conducted by four independent authors.
