background: iron deficiency anemia is one of the important problems during pregnancy.  iron deficiency has several adverse effects on pregnant women and their newborns.   objective: to determine the status of iron store in newborns born to mothers with iron deficiency anemia.   methods: in a cross-sectional study, 90 mothers were categorized into three groups according to their pre-delivery hem...

background functional iron deficiency (fid) may cause erythropoietin resistance in patients under hemodialysis (hd). since the role of chronic inflammation or oxidative stress in its pathogenesis is unclear, controversy remains to whether intravenous iron or intravenous ascorbic acid (an antioxidant) can improve this anemia due to decreased iron availability. objectives the current study compar...

background endemic goiter is present in most parts of iran. iron deficiency adversely affects the physiology of thyroid. the initial steps of thyroid hormone synthesis are catalyzed by thyroperoxidases and are dependent on iron. in many developing countries, children are at high risk of both goiter and iron deficiency anemia. in addition, iron deficiency may alter central nervous system control...

iron deficiency or lime induced chlorosis is a common problem in calcareous soils. application of mineral iron fertilizer in these soils is not usually fully effective in curing iron deficiency as compared to organic chelates. cow manure and iron refuse (oxides), a by-product of iron melting factories were mixed in different properties of: 0, 5, 10, and 20 % v/v to make mixtures which of after ...

background: the most common metal used in the body is iron and since it may produce ros, it could potentially be a dangerous substance. objectives: regarding the side effects of nanomaterials such as nano iron particles and possibility of environmental contamination including air pollution with nanoscale iron particle, this study was designed to compare the effects of conventional iron oxide wi...

The presented study aimed at investigating the effect of foliar application of amino acids and nano particles and chelated iron on photosynthetic pigments and yield of potato. To this end a factorial experiment was carried out in the form of randomized complete block design with three replications in 2013, in the Research Field of Natural Resources Institute in Damavand, Iran. The first factor ...

Background: Iron is an essential mineral for normal cellular physiology but its ‎overload can lead to cell injury. For many years, deferoxamine injection has been used ‎as an iron chelator for treatment of iron overload. The aim of this study is to compare ‎oral deferoxamine, activated charcoal, and vitamin C, as an absorbent factor of Fe, in ‎changing the serum level of iron in iron overload r...

nowdays,  iron  nanoparticles  due  to  their  unique  characteristics  are used  in  all  of  sciences  and  technology.  these  nano  particles  due  to their  electrical, magnetic,  optical  and  catalytic  properties  and  having high  area  and  activity  that  is  promped  by  their  small  size  and most importantly  many  scientists  from  the  entire  world  are  interested  in their  ...

conclusion adrenal iron in β-tm can be reliably measured in 3 tesla mri. the results highlight the absence of correlation between adrenal iron deposition both with serum ferritin and hepatic iron. results among patients, there was no significant correlation between plasma ferritin and adrenal t2*. significant difference was detected among t2* values of adrenals between the patient and control g...
