Background And Aims: Red blood cell transfusions are often used to treat iron-deficient patients in the emergency department (ED), while treatment with intravenous (IV) iron is preferred, as it increases hemoglobin concentration rapidly and durably. We aim to evaluate the incidence of iron deficiency anemia, frequency of blood transfusion and iron supplementation, and factors associated with blood transfusion in the ED.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients presenting to the St.

Several modifiable health factors in Life's Essential 8 (LE8) are linked to nutritional anemia and can assess overall cardiovascular health (CVH). This study explored the associations of CVH measured by LE8 score with nutritional anemia and iron deficiency anemia (IDA), including the mediating role of inflammatory biomarkers. This prospective cohort study included 181,069 participants from UK Biobank.

Background: The long-term follow-up studies investigating the risk of anemia and iron deficiency following bariatric procedures are scarce. This study aimed to determine the influence of body weight reduction and type of bariatric surgery on iron metabolism parameters.
Methods: We included 138 consecutive patients who underwent bariatric surgery (120 underwent sleeve gastrectomy and 18 underwent other types of bariatric surgery) between 2010 and 2016.
