Background & Objective: Iron deficiency anemia has devastating effects on physical and mental health as the World Health Organization has identified this anemia as an important nutritional and public health problem worldwide. Therefore, due to the importance of the subject, the aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the amount of iron intake with anemia and other related factors in the PERSIAN cohort of Fasa in 2019.
Materials & Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed based on cohort data of Fasa. Accordingly, 10,138 people from the cohort population were included in the study from 2015 to 2017. Sampling was done by Census. Data were analyzed using SPSS-22 software and Pearson correlation coefficient, independent t-test, and one-way analysis of variance.
Results: 4580 (45.2%) were male and 5558 (54.8%) were female. There was a significant relationship between iron deficiency anemia and age, sex, economic status, education level, physical function, energy intake, body mass index, smoking, history of surgery, and number of pregnancies (P <0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results of the present study, a wide range of factors associated with iron deficiency anemia were identified. Managers and policymakers of the health system can use the findings of this study to develop appropriate health protocols for education and prevention.
