About this study

Official title: Iron Status of Toddlers, Non-pregnant, and Pregnant Women in the United States

This analysis describes the distribution of TBI and the prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) among toddlers, non-pregnant women, and pregnant women.

Read the detailed description

Background: Total body iron stores (TBI), which are calculated from serum ferritin (SF) and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) concentrations, can be used to assess the iron status of populations in the United States.

Objective: This analysis describes the distribution of TBI and the prevalence of iron deficiency (ID) and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) among toddlers, non-pregnant women, and pregnant women.

Design: Investigators analyzed data from NHANES; toddlers aged 12-23 mo (NHANES 2003-2010), non-pregnant women aged 15-49 y (NHANES 2007-2010), and pregnant women aged 12-49 y (NHANES 1999-2010). Investigators used SAS survey procedures to plot distributions of TBI and produce prevalence estimates of ID and IDA for each target population. All analyses were weighted to account for the complex survey design

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Iron-deficiency and Nutritional Deficiency, run by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Iron Deficiency (time frame: 1999-2010). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03274726, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 May 2024.
