Background: Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of dietary approaches for iron deficiency anemia (IDA) control. This study was design to investigate the effect of dietary intervention treatment on children with iron deficiency anemia.
Methods: We performed a systematic review of published dietary interventions effect on IDA treatment through meta-analysis. CBM, CNKI, Wanfang database, EMBASE, VIP, PubMed and Web of science database were searched to identify studies published between January, 1980 and December, 2016. Statistical analysis was performed by Revmen5.2 software.
Results: Initially we retrieved for 373 studies, and then 6 studies with a total of 676 individuals were included in the analysis according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria for meta-analysis. The overall pooled estimate of odds ratio [(OR), 95% confidence intervals (95% CI)] in the dietary intervention on children with iron deficiency anemia was 6.54 (95% CI: 3.48-12.31, Z = 5.82, p<0.001) and funnel plot is symmetric.
Conclusions: Our meta-analysis suggested that dietary interventions are effective in improving the iron deficiency in children with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and should be considered in the overall strategy of IDA management.

A lack of iron (Fe) inhibits the growth and development of plants, leading to reduced agricultural yields and quality. In the last ten years, numerous studies have focused on the induction of Fe uptake and translocation under Fe deficiency, but the regulatory mechanisms governing Fe reutilization within plants are still not well understood. Here, we demonstrated the involvement of the NAM/ATAF1/2/CUC2 (NAC) transcription factor NAC50 in response to Fe shortage.

Background: Iron deficiency (ID) is currently defined as a serum ferritin level <100 or 100 to 299 ng/mL with transferrin saturation (TSAT) <20%. Serum ferritin and TSAT are currently used to define absolute and functional ID. However, individual markers of iron metabolism may be more informative than current arbitrary definitions of ID.

Micronutrient deficiencies remain a great public health challenge worldwide with iron, zinc, and vitamin A being the most problematic. It has been shown that biofortification through agronomic strategies can increase their micronutrient content, but data on the bioavailability remain limited. In Senegal, consumption of cereals and legumes is high, and orange-fleshed sweet potato (OFSP), rich in β-carotene, has been introduced a decade ago.

As digestive endoscopy becomes more prevalent, an increasing number of autoimmune gastritis (AIG) cases have been diagnosed, which has contributed to a growing body of research on AIG. We report the case of a patient with AIG who was diagnosed due to receiving endoscopic surgery after discovering a gastric neuroendocrine tumor (GNET) during gastroscopy twice within 3 years. The patient was admitted to our hospital for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) due to GNET recurrence discovered during gastroscopy.
